요약Set against the scholarly and historical backdrop of 18th- and 19th-century German philhellenism, this dissertation examines how the idea of ancient Rome - the city, its history, and its literature - shapes ideas of history in the writings of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Wilhelm von Humboldt, and Immanuel Kant. The idealization of ancient Greece looms large in both the writings of this period in Germany and in scholarship written about them This cultural obsession also coincided with and colored new theories of history and education that emerged in this intellectual milieu. As a result, moments in which these thinkers and theorists address Rome, especially outside specialized discourses of classics and ancient history, are rare and frequently offer unfavorable contrasts with Greece - or have at least been interpreted as doing so. Contributing to a scholarly counternarrative to the dominance of philhellenism, I adopt a methodology of sustained literary close reading and comparative study of Latin, Greek, and German texts to excavate the presence and influence of Rome in the works of these prominent contributors to early historical thought. The following chapters comprise three discrete case studies of such Roman moments: first, in the aesthetic discourse of Goethe's Italienische Reise; then in the theoretical essays and elegiac poetry of Wilhelm von Humboldt; and finally in natural metaphors of Kant's Idee zu einer allgemeinen Geschichte in weltburgerlicher Absicht. While each of these studies showcases a distinct approach to Rome, its history, and its literature in German thought, together they illustrate Rome's capacity to serve a tropical or metaphorical role in their language. More specifically, despite these different approaches, ideas of Rome show a persistent affinity for the language and figures of thought these authors use to describe time and history, as perceptions of the enormous scale of both the city and its long history find reflection in their efforts to assign meaning to the manifold phenomena of the past. These studies illustrate how Rome and Roman literature are naturalized and incorporated to German ideas of history around the turn of the 19th century but also thus reveal tensions and contradictions within and across disciplinary boundaries of history, philosophy, and classical studies.

■520    ▼aSet  against  the  scholarly  and  historical  backdrop  of  18th-  and  19th-century  German  philhellenism,  this  dissertation  examines  how  the  idea  of  ancient  Rome  -  the  city,  its  history,  and  its  literature  -  shapes  ideas  of  history  in  the  writings  of  Johann  Wolfgang  von  Goethe,  Wilhelm  von  Humboldt,  and  Immanuel  Kant.  The  idealization  of  ancient  Greece  looms  large  in  both  the  writings  of  this  period  in  Germany  and  in  scholarship  written  about  them  This  cultural  obsession  also  coincided  with  and  colored  new  theories  of  history  and  education  that  emerged  in  this  intellectual  milieu.  As  a  result,  moments  in  which  these  thinkers  and  theorists  address  Rome,  especially  outside  specialized  discourses  of  classics  and  ancient  history,  are  rare  and  frequently  offer  unfavorable  contrasts  with  Greece  -  or  have  at  least  been  interpreted  as  doing  so.  Contributing  to  a  scholarly  counternarrative  to  the  dominance  of  philhellenism,  I  adopt  a  methodology  of  sustained  literary  close  reading  and  comparative  study  of  Latin,  Greek,  and  German  texts  to  excavate  the  presence  and  influence  of  Rome  in  the  works  of  these  prominent  contributors  to  early  historical  thought.  The  following  chapters  comprise  three  discrete  case  studies  of  such  Roman  moments:  first,  in  the  aesthetic  discourse  of  Goethe's  Italienische  Reise;  then  in  the  theoretical  essays  and  elegiac  poetry  of  Wilhelm  von  Humboldt;  and  finally  in  natural  metaphors  of  Kant's  Idee  zu  einer  allgemeinen  Geschichte  in  weltburgerlicher  Absicht.  While  each  of  these  studies  showcases  a  distinct  approach  to  Rome,  its  history,  and  its  literature  in  German  thought,  together  they  illustrate  Rome's  capacity  to  serve  a  tropical  or  metaphorical  role  in  their  language.  More  specifically,  despite  these  different  approaches,  ideas  of  Rome  show  a  persistent  affinity  for  the  language  and  figures  of  thought  these  authors  use  to  describe  time  and  history,  as  perceptions  of  the  enormous  scale  of  both  the  city  and  its  long  history  find  reflection  in  their  efforts  to  assign  meaning  to  the  manifold  phenomena  of  the  past.  These  studies  illustrate  how  Rome  and  Roman  literature  are  naturalized  and  incorporated  to  German  ideas  of  history  around  the  turn  of  the  19th  century  but  also  thus  reveal  tensions  and  contradictions  within  and  across  disciplinary  boundaries  of  history,  philosophy,  and  classical  studies.
