Livre Livre Barbarian : explorations of a Western concept in modern theory, literature and the arts eng 2018 author Winkler Markus 73757 author Boletsi Maria author Herlth Jens author Moser Christian author Reidy Julian 757874 author Rohner Melanie 813785 374 978-3-476-04484-6 This two-volume co-authored study explores the history of the concept 'barbarism' from the 18 th century to the present and illuminates its foundational role in modern European and Western identity. It constitutes an original comparative, interdisciplinary exploration of the concept's modern European and Western history, with emphasis on the role of literature in the concept's shifting functions. The study contributes to a historically grounded understanding of this figure's past and contemporary uses. It combines overviews with detailed analyses of representative works of literature, art, film, philosophy, political and cultural theory, in which "barbarism" figures prominently.
