«19. Rasgo característico común de todo lo psíquico. —El rasgo característico común de todo lo psíquico consiste en eso que frecuentemente se ha designado con el nombre de conciencia  —expresión, por desgracia, muy expuesta a malentendidos—; es decir, consiste en una actitud del sujeto, en una referencia intencional —que así ha sido llamada— a algo que, acaso, no sea real, pero que, sin embargo, está dado interiormente como objeto. No hay audición sin algo oído, ni creencia sin algo creído, ni esperanza sin algo esperado, ni aspiración sin algo a que se aspira, ni regocijo sin algo de que nos regocijemos, y así sucesivamente.»

“He stopped, looked up and stared at me fixedly, tears fell from my eyes, I trembled and could not hold myself together.”

— Bettina Brentano’s reaction to seeing Napoleon in August of 1807

Brentano's, 1924

[dolphdrago]

Schlegel: Fighting with my brother about which fruit would win if they were sentient and could fight.

Kleist: Obviously pineapple.

Achim: Except coconut would kick its ass...

Heine: Uh...have you seen a durian before?

Schiller: Dragonfruit is the obvious right answer.

Goethe: That's ridiculous. Pomegranate is known as "grenade" in many languages, e.g. "grenade" in French, "grenade apple" in Swedish...

Bettine: Grapefruit, duh.

Fichte: Obviously the kiwi, as it's the only fruit that can fly. I mean, how would you even fight back?

Humboldt: But kiwis don't fly. Neither the birds nor the fruit.

Tieck: Tomato obviously. It would be hanging out with the vegetables and no one would notice until the other fruits kill each other off, then it swoops in and claims victory.

Brentano: Pumpkins are pretty tough.

Eichendorff: Jackfruit. Have you ever seen those fuckers?

Kleist: CAN'T YOU SEE FRUIT VS. FRUIT BATTLES ARE TEARING US ALL APART?!?!?!?!?!

*everyone arguing*

Novalis: Grapes.

*everyone stops and looks in Novalis's direction*

Novalis: What? They're like a...little...purple...gang.

The Legend of Rosepetal

Clemens Brentano / illustrated by Lisbeth Zwerger

North-South Books 1985

I am tempted to say this is actually the last Zwerger illustrated book on my shelves, but I’m not entirely confident. However, this is a good one to end on if it is actually the last. Written by German Romantic poet Clemens Maria Brentano in 1852 as Das Märchen von Rosenblättchen, this lovely lyrical fairy tale is brought to life by Lisbeth Zwerger’s gorgeous illustrations. As with many of her earlier works, the illustrations for Rosepetal are dominated by atmospheric murky watercolor washes. But rather than weighing everything down, the muddy backgrounds provide a sharp contrast to the pale delicate features of her characters’ faces, highlighting their looks of joy, concern, disappointment, or malice like a frame. Together, Brentano’s Romantic tale and Zwerger’s evocative illustrations are a delightful pairing.

And it even has a signed bookplate.

Habe letztens Goethe‘s Briefwechsel mit Bettina Brentano gefunden. Bzw. jemand hat es auf Discord dramatisch vorgetragen

Betti girlbosses ein bisschen zu nah an der Sonne, ich verstehs, aber Mausi, da hätte ich nochmal drübergelesem. Der Fakt dass sie auch erst mit seiner Mutter geschrieben hat… UND DANN SEINE ANTWORT

Wortwörtlich diese Reaktion

“I can’t write poetry like you, Günderrode, but I can talk with nature... And when I come back... we put our beds side by side and chat away together all night... great profound speculations which make the old world creak on its rusty hinges.”

— Bettina von Arnim (1785-1859) in a letter to Karoline von Günderrode [A virtuoso muse, Jan Swafford]

Works about a young person so attractive that it brings them misery, shrinks their world more and more, and eventually dooms them:

SERENATA NOCTURNA

Oye, la flauta se queja, rumoran frescos veneros. Dorados halos descienden: ¡silencio, calla! ¡escuchemos!

Ruego gentil, suave anhelo, ¡cómo le habla al corazón! En la noche que me encierra guiña la luz de este son.

*

ABENDSTÄNDCHEN

Hör‘, es klagt die Flöte wieder, Und die kühlen Brunnen rauschen. Golden weh‘n die Töne nieder, Stille, stille, laß uns lauschen!

Holdes Bitten, mild Verlangen, Wie es süß zum Herzen spricht! Durch die Nacht, die mich umfangen, Blickt zu mir der Töne Licht.

Clemens Brentano

¿Consciencia sin sujeto?

Una perspectiva en el desarrollo de máquinas conscientes (o con mente, si equiparamos ambos conceptos) es construir artefactos con capacidad de representarse a sí mismos. A priori, podría parecer una perspectiva errónea ya que cuando somos conscientes de algo no necesariamente nos representamos a nosotros mismos. Si yo soy consciente del color rojo de una amapola, la amapola no forma parte de mí…

Franz Brentano (1938 - 1917)

[me3dia]

Kroch's & Brentano's was a Chicago-based chain of bookstores. This particular location, on Wabash in the Loop, was for a long time the "world's largest bookstore." My grandmother worked there in the 1980s, and my mom would take my brother and I down to visit her during her lunch break. We'd meet her at the store, then use the underground pedway to go to the cafeteria in the basement of Marshall Field's across the street. It was such a treat!
