Description

La Colombiade war bis zur französischen Revolution ein in Frankreich und in den westeuropäischen Ländern vielbeachtetes Epos. Aus heutiger Sicht ist das gut lesbare Gedicht erneut von Interesse: es wägt Segnungen und Schäden der Kolonialisierung gegeneinander ab, propagiert die Idee eines auf wissenschaftlichem und humanistischem Ethos gegründeten Europas, und artikuliert das aufklärerische Selbstbewusstsein einer schreibenden Frau. Die Einführung der Herausgeberin stellt das Gedicht in den Wissenshorizont der Entstehungszeit und skizziert die Rezeption. Der Anhang informiert über Textvarianten, bringt erläuternde Anmerkungen und einen bibliographischen Informationsteil. From the Back Cover La Colombiade d’Anne-Marie du Boccage raconte l’exploit de Christophe Colomb dans le contexte d’une vision de l’histoire de l’Europe jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle. Première œuvre poétique à représenter cet événement à part de quelques poèmes en latin, elle a inspiré toute une série de colombiades composées en Europe et, plus tard, aux États-Unies. Pour un poème épique, son évaluation de la découverte de l’Amérique est étrangement ambivalente. « Que n’ai-je dans les Mers terminé mes destins ! » Colomb s’exclame quand il apprend les conséquences de ses actions.   Die Columbiade von Anne-Marie du Boccage ist ein modellbildendes Werk, in dem das Abenteuer der Entdeckung Amerikas erzählt und in einen gesamtgeschichtlichen Zusammenhang gestellt wird. Die zeitgenössische deutsche Übertragung bezeugt die damalige europäische Berühmtheit des Gedichts. Die Bewertung der dargestellten Heldentaten fällt für ein Epos ungewöhnlich ambivalent aus. Als Kolumbus mit den Folgen seiner Entdeckung konfrontiert wird, nimmt er gleichsam seinen Denkmalsturz 500 Jahre später vorweg, wenn er bestürzt ausruft: „soll ich hier durch mein Bemühen so viele Laster erzeugen, warum habe ich nicht mein Schicksal im Meere geendigt!“ About the Author Ina Schabert ist Professorin für Literaturwissenschaft an der LMU München.
