| Zusammenfassung: | Struggling to make sense of the Revolution of 1789, the French in the nineteenth century increasingly turned to visual forms of historical representation in a variety of media. Maurice Samuels shows how new kinds of popular entertainment introduced during and after the Revolution transformed the past into a spectacle. The wax display (in which visitors circulated amid life-size statues of historical figures), the phantasmagoria show (in which images of historical personages were projected onto smoke or invisible screens), and the panorama (in which spectators viewed giant circular canvases depicting historical scenes) employed new optical technologies to entice crowds of spectators. Such entertainments, Samuels asserts, provided bourgeois audiences with an illusion of mastery over the past, allowing them to picture their new role as historical agents.Samuels demonstrates how the spectacular mode of historical representation pervaded historiography, drama, and the novel during the Romantic period. He then argues that the early Realist fiction of Balzac and Stendhal emerged as a critique of the spectacular historical imagination. By investigating how postrevolutionary France envisioned the past, Samuels illuminates a vital moment in the cultural history of modernity |

Mrz 2019) Struggling to make sense of the Revolution of 1789, the French in the nineteenth century increasingly turned to visual forms of historical representation in a variety of media. Maurice Samuels shows how new kinds of popular entertainment introduced during and after the Revolution transformed the past into a spectacle. The wax display (in which visitors circulated amid life-size statues of historical figures), the phantasmagoria show (in which images of historical personages were projected onto smoke or invisible screens), and the panorama (in which spectators viewed giant circular canvases depicting historical scenes) employed new optical technologies to entice crowds of spectators. Such entertainments, Samuels asserts, provided bourgeois audiences with an illusion of mastery over the past, allowing them to picture their new role as historical agents.Samuels demonstrates how the spectacular mode of historical representation pervaded historiography, drama, and the novel during the Romantic period. He then argues that the early Realist fiction of Balzac and Stendhal emerged as a critique of the spectacular historical imagination. By investigating how postrevolutionary France envisioned the past, Samuels illuminates a vital moment in the cultural history of modernity In English Scott, Walter 1771-1832 (DE-588)118612409 gnd rswk-swf Balzac, Honoré de 1799-1850 (DE-588)118506358 gnd rswk-swf Stendhal 1783-1842 (DE-588)118617648 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1830-1871 gnd rswk-swf LITERARY CRITICISM / European / French bisacsh French fiction 19th century History and criticism History in literature Historischer Roman (DE-588)4025132-9 gnd rswk-swf Französisch (DE-588)4113615-9 gnd rswk-swf Geschichtsbild (DE-588)4071769-0 gnd rswk-swf Roman (DE-588)4050479-7 gnd rswk-swf Französisch (DE-588)4113615-9 s Roman (DE-588)4050479-7 s Geschichtsbild (DE-588)4071769-0 s Geschichte 1830-1871 z 1\p DE-604 Balzac, Honoré de 1799-1850 (DE-588)118506358 p Historischer Roman (DE-588)4025132-9 s 2\p DE-604 Scott, Walter 1771-1832 (DE-588)118612409 p 3\p DE-604 Stendhal 1783-1842 (DE-588)118617648 p 4\p DE-604 https://doi.org/10.7591/9781501729836 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
