Publisher Description:
Der zweite Teilband bringt Mendelssohns Beitrage zu Nicolais Allgemeiner deutscher Bibliothek sowie Erstdrucke einiger literarischer Fragmente. In den langen Rezensionsartikeln der AdB kommen u.a. die Philosophie Lamberts, die Querelle des anciens et modernes (anhand einer Homerubersetzung Bitaubes), die Odentheorie Ramlers und einige bisher ubersehene Beitrage (u.a. zu Garve und Abbt) zur Sprache. Unter den literarischen Fragmenten befinden sich das verloren geglaubte Fragment von Mendelssohns Ausfuhrungen zu John Browns History of the Rise and Fall of Poetry through its Several Species, ein weiterer Teil einer Shaftesbury-Ubersetzung und Mendelssohns Notizen des Konzeptbuches von 1783/84. The second volume in the set contains Mendelssohns essays on Nicolais and his Allgemeiner deutscher Bibliothek (German General Library) as well as the first publications of several literary fragments. The long reviews of the AdB (common German reference work) mention, among others, the philosophy of Lamberts, the Querelle des anciens et moderns (based on a translation of Homer by Bitaube), Ramlers theory of odes (Odentheorie) and several essays which had been previously overlooked e.g. on Garve and Abbt). Among the literary fragments are Mendelssohns comments on John Brown's History of the Rise and Fall of Poetry through its Several Species, which were believed to have been lost, a further part of a Shaftesbury translation and Mendelssohn's notes on a book of concepts from 1783/84.
