Carl Stamitz (1745-1801), Johann Stamitz's eldest son, is well known for his works, as his compositions can be found on numerous recordings and concert programmes in today's music scene. ...Musicologists though do not pay the same attention to this composer, who came from the ranks of the court musicians of the Electoral Palatinate. The dissertation by Friedrich Carl Kaiser (1931-2008), submitted in 1962, is still the only monograph that systematically deals with his life and his orchestral music, which was a major part of his creative work. It is a standard work that rightly appears in every bibliography on the subject. Up to now it has only been possible to view the compulsory typescript copies of the dissertation, which are distributed among a few libraries and which differ in detail from one another. The reason for this is the somewhat unusual genesis of the text, as Kaiser repeatedly made changes and additions to his Stamitz monograph over a long period of time. The present edition, which also includes Kaiser's personal copy from his estate, now provides musicology researchers with a reliable edition of this fundamental text.
Carl Stamitz (1745–1801), der älteste Sohn von Johann Stamitz, ist durch seine Werke Musikinteressierten ein Begriff, finden sich seine Kompositionen doch auf zahlreichen Tonträgern und Konzertprogrammen im heutigen Musikbetrieb. Die Musikwissenschaft schenkt diesem Komponisten aus den Reihen der kurpfälzischen Hofmusiker nicht in gleicher Weise Aufmerksamkeit. Nach wie vor ist die 1962 eingereichte Dissertation von Friedrich Carl Kaiser (1931–2008) die einzige Monographie, die sich mit dem Leben und einem gewichtigen Teil seines schöpferischen Werkes, der Orchestermusik, systematisch beschäftigt. Sie ist ein Standardwerk, das zu Recht in jeder Bibliographie zum Thema erscheint. Bislang war es lediglich möglich, die auf wenige Bibliotheken verteilten Pflichtexemplare der Dissertation in Typoskriptform einzusehen, welche noch dazu im Detail voneinander abweichen. Als Ursache dafür ist die insgesamt ungewöhnliche Genese des Textes zu nennen: Kaiser hat über einen langen Zeitraum hinweg immer wieder Änderungen und Zusätze an seiner Stamitz-Monographie vorgenommen. Die vorliegende Ausgabe, die auch Kaisers Handexemplar aus dem Nachlass berücksichtigt, stellt nun der musikwissenschaftlichen Forschung eine verlässliche Leseausgabe dieses grundlegenden Textes zur Verfügung.
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan hakikat ideologi menurut Karl Mannheim serta menganalisis landasan ontologis, epistemologis, dan aksiologis yang mendasari pemikirannya. ...Penelitian ini adalah penelitian pustaka (library research), dengan memakai beberapa unsur metodis, yakni deskripsi, historis, analitika bahasa, abstraksi, hermeneutika, dan heuristika. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa menurut Mannheim, ideologi mengacu pada sebuah kondisi yang belum atau tidak terjadi, dalam arti tidak ada dalam kenyataan. Ideologi berarti ramalan tentang masa depan berdasarkan pada sistem yang saat ini sedang berlaku. Selain itu, Mannheim juga membedakan dua macam ideologi, yaitu ideologi partikular dan ideologi total. Ideologi partikular adalah ideologi yang dipahami secara psikologis oleh seorang individu; sedangkan ideologi total adalah ideologi yang dimiliki oleh suatu komunitas sehingga sangat dekat dengan pengertian welstanchauung. Dari perspektif ontologis, dalam pemikiran Karl Mannheim tentang ideologi terkandung asumsi adanya realitas objektif. Dari perspektif epistemologi, pemikiran Karl Mannheim tentang ideologi menyiratkan pemikiran subjektivisme epistemologis. Dari perspektif aksiologis, kekuasaan yang berkaitan dengan politik masih menduduki hierarki yang tertinggi dalam ideologi.
Since its publication in the 1920s, Mannheim’s essay, ‘The Problem of Generations’ (19521928), has attained seminal status in marked contrast to Norbert Elias’s theoretical formulations on ...generations. Despite Elias's close relationship over many years with Mannheim, the symmetries in their sociological programmes, and, crucially, that Elias's work specifically addresses generational conflict, he remains invisible within the sociology of generations literature. Yet Elias’s contributions on this subject are quite extensive, traversing many of his major works. This article begins by reviewing Mannheim’s and Elias’s formulations on generations and goes on to consider the relevance of Elias’s theoretical ideas in relation to contemporary work on generations. The paper contends that Elias's approach is a more empirically employable theoretical frame and also a stronger one for explaining intergenerational conflict.
Die Wissenssoziologie von Karl Mannheim wird (nicht nur) in der Medienpädagogik vornehmlich aufgrund der darin ausgearbeiteten Methodologie, die Dokumentarische Methode der Interpretation, zur ...Kenntnis genommen. Wesentlich hierfür sind bspw. die Beiträge zur Theorie der Weltanschauungs-Interpretation (Mannheim 1964a), die Unterscheidung zwischen konjunktivem und kommunikativem Wissen (Mannheim 1980) und der Aufsatz über «Das Problem der Generationen» (Mannheim 1964b). Der Beitrag geht davon aus, dass das Potenzial dieser Theorieschule durch die Reduktion auf ihre methodologischen Implikationen nicht hinreichend ausgeschöpft wird. Deshalb wird vorgeschlagen, die Wissenssoziologie als grundlagentheoretisches Fundament für ein medienpädagogisches Verständnis von professionellem (Denken und) Handeln zu entwickeln. Unter Zuhilfenahme der Medien-Pädagogik als partikulare Einmischung und als akzeptierende Disziplin (Fromme und Meder 2000) einerseits und dem Umgang mit dem Nicht-Wissen (Hugger 2007) andererseits werden die professionstheoretischen Implikationen unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des dynamischen Relationismus als wissenssoziologischen Programmatik reformuliert.
This paper responds to the ‘existence theory’ proposed by Baert, Morgan and Ushiyama. It considers their proposals in light of two main thematics: the general account of human existence, and the more ...empirical sociology of existential milestones. Both elements are appraised in light of existentialist philosophy and earlier attempts at ‘existentialist sociology’. It is suggested that the authors engage with generational theory, and also give an account of the commodification of significant life-stages by the milestones culture industry.
The parallels and differences between current forms of populism and early 20th-century fascism have been the focus for much discussion. This article examines the relevance today of Karl Mannheim’s ...analysis of fascism and of its relationship to democracy in the 1930s. He argued that the threat of fascism arose from the very nature of liberal democratic society, rather than being a product of external forces. He claimed that liberal democracy is transitional, rather than stable in character, and that the new emerging form of governance that was required to replace it shared a key component with fascism: a high level of social and economic planning. At the same time, he insisted that, as a pathological development, fascism served to illustrate the disastrous consequences that a failure to engage realistically with the process of societal development can have for upholding Western civilisational ideals. This article explores Mannheim’s arguments against the background of current thinking about populism and ‘post-democracy’.
Parallels have been drawn between the 1930s and today, notably the existence of unstable economic conditions as well as deepening, antagonistic ideological divisions. In the 1940s, two books appeared ...that presented opposing diagnoses of, and remedies for, the problems that faced Western societies at that time. In Man and Society, Karl Mannheim argued that forms of political organization had not adapted to changing social, economic, and technological conditions, and that this explained the rise of communism and fascism. He insisted that, in order to avoid disorder and political extremism, liberal democracies needed to engage in greater planning of their economic and social affairs, with sociology providing the synthesis of scientific knowledge required for this. Just a few years later, Friedrich Hayek published The Road to Serfdom, in which Mannheim's work was a central target. He insisted that only the preservation of liberal freedoms and competitive markets could prevent the spread of totalitarianism. This paper outlines the arguments of each of these authors and provides an account of some of the historical background against which their disagreement arose. It also explores the relevance of their very different positions today, at a time when the neoliberal ideology that Hayek championed continues to have great influence but is under increasing attack from across the political spectrum.
