Book Synopsis National Poets, Cultural Saints: Canonization and Commemorative Cults of Writers in Europe by : Marijan Dović
Download or read book National Poets, Cultural Saints: Canonization and Commemorative Cults of Writers in Europe written by Marijan Dović. This book was released on 2016-11-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In National Poets, Cultural Saints Marijan Dović and Jón Karl Helgason explore the ways in which certain artists, writers, and poets in Europe have become major figures of cultural memory, emulating the symbolic role formerly played by state rulers and religious saints. The authors develop the concept of cultural sainthood in the context of nationalism as a form of invisible religion, identify major shifts in canonization practices from antiquity to the nationally-motivated commemoration of the nineteenth century, and explore the afterlives of two national poets, Slovenia's France Prešeren and Iceland's Jónas Hallgrímsson. The book presents a useful analytical model of canonization for further studies on cultural sainthood and opens up fruitful perspectives for the understanding of national movements.
