摘要

学术界很少关注威廉·冯·洪堡和海因里希·冯·克莱斯特思想之间的联系。两人在不同时期都对法国大革命的余波及其对当代欧洲格局的影响着迷。洪堡在18世纪90年代的文章中为个人的“建设”事业辩护,反对干涉主义国家的霸权。他对法国新宪法的判断最终是悲观的,因为他否认历史允许政治结构的成功和突然逆转。克莱斯特认为大革命被拿破仑的统治所背叛。他的第一部关于悲剧《Penthesilea》的作品是在1805年到1806年之间的Königsberg,在那里他可以随时获得洪堡的出版物。1806年10月普鲁士的惨败给1807年完成的剧本蒙上了阴影。正是在这种传统秩序解体的氛围下,克莱斯特发明了亚马逊国家,作为一场革命的悲剧续集。压制所有的个人自由,这与洪堡想象的国家应该是什么相反,从而表明我们可能在洪堡的政治思想中找到一个迄今为止被忽视的Penthesilea的来源。

WILHELM VON HUMBOLDT AND HEINRICH VON KLEIST: IMAGINING THE STATE IN THE WAKE OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION

Scholarship has paid scant attention to affinities between the thought of Wilhelm von Humboldt and that of Heinrich von Kleist. Both were, at different times, fascinated by the aftermath of the French Revolution and its influence on the shape of contemporary Europe. Humboldt's essays of the 1790s plead the cause of individual ‘Bildung’ against the hegemony of an interventionist state. His verdict on the new French constitution is ultimately pessimistic as he denies that history permits successful and sudden reversals of political structures. Kleist sees the Revolution as betrayed by Napoleon's ascendancy. His first work on his tragedy Penthesilea is dated between 1805 and 1806 in Königsberg, where he would have had ready access to Humboldt's publications. The calamitous defeat of Prussia in October 1806 overshadowed the play's completion in 1807. It is in this climate of the disintegration of a traditional order that Kleist invents the Amazon state as the tragic sequel to a revolution. Suppressing all individual freedom, it is the opposite of what Humboldt imagined a state should be, thus suggesting we may find in Humboldt's political thought a hitherto neglected source for Penthesilea.

期刊介绍: - German Life and Letters was founded in 1936 by the distinguished British Germanist L.A. Willoughby and the publisher Basil Blackwell. In its first number the journal described its aim as "engagement with German culture in its widest aspects: its history, literature, religion, music, art; with German life in general". German LIfe and Letters has continued over the decades to observe its founding principles of providing an international and interdisciplinary forum for scholarly analysis of German culture past and present. The journal appears four times a year, and a typical number contains around eight articles of between six and eight thousand words each.
