Friedrich Schlegel and the Gothic Revival in Germany

本文的研究对象是在德国文学批评界称为“歌德时代”的时期内，德国的哥特复兴。哥特式复兴是“动荡与骚动”时期的重要组成部分，主要受歌德对斯特拉斯堡大教堂的颂词的影响。我的研究分为两个部分，第一部分想更仔细地研究英国的先驱，即那些自由主义的、有时是偏心的辉格党贵族，他们对哥特式建筑的兴趣是远离德国浪漫主义中世纪主义和唯灵论。英国哥特复兴的创始人是风景如画的风景园林新理念。德国第一个景观园艺和新哥特式园林建筑的例子是由自由派的德绍亲王在离魏玛不远的一个乡村地方沃利茨创造的。歌德喜欢这个田园诗般的地方。另一位著名的崇拜者是乔治·福斯特，他与整个英国的改革计划有关。福斯特后来还写了一篇关于凯布尔大教堂的悼词，这篇悼词对弗里德里希·施莱格尔影响很大。在第二部分中，我想说明施莱格尔是如何发展自己的哥特式建筑的审美价值，与古典传统相比，但哥特式建筑本身的象征意义和意义。

The subject of my research is the GOthic Revival in Germany during the period which in german literary criticism is called "Goethe-Zeit". Gothic revival playd an important part during the period of "Sturm und Drang", influenced mainly by Goethe's panegyric about the Strassburg cathedral. My research is divided in two parts, the first of which wants to take a closer look upon the english forerunners, i.e.those liberal and some=times excentric Whig-aristocrats whose interest in Gothic architecture was for away from german romantic mediaevalism and spiritualism. Originator of Gothic Revival in England was the new idea of picturesque landscape gardening. The first example of landscape gardening and neogothic garden-archtecture in Germany has been created by the liberal Prince of Dessau in Worlitz, a rural place not far away from Weimar. Goethe loved this idylic place. Another famous admirer was Georg Forster who is linked to the whole Worlits reform program. Forster later also wrote an eulogy about the cathedral of Koln, which influenced much Friedrich Schlegel. In the second part of my research I want to demonstrate how Schlegel develloped his own esthetic values of gothic architecture as compared with the classical tradition, regardful however of the Gothic's own symbolism and significance.
