Friedrich W. Solmsen (4. februar 1904 – 30. januar 1989) bio je američki klasični filolog nemačkog porekla. Objavio je skoro 150 knjiga, monografija, članaka i prikaza, počev od 1930-ih, pa sve do 1980-ih godina.[1] Solmsenov rad karakteriše pre svega zanimanje za historiju ideja.[2] Bio je uticajan naučnik na području grčke tragedije, posebno zahvaljujući svom radu na Eshilu, kao i na području filozofije fizikalnog sveta i njegovog odnosa s duhovnim, naročito u Platonovoj i Aristotelovoj filozofiji.

Život i naučna karijera

[uredi | uredi kod]

Friedrich Solmsen, koga su bliski prijatelji ponekad zvali "Fritz", rođen je i odrastao u Nemačkoj. Bio je jedan od članova grupe "Graeca", odnosno grupe mladih filologa koju je okupio Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff i koja se sastajala u kući znamenitog naučnika kako bi čitala grčke tekstove i raspravljala o njima, s ciljem emendacije teksta. U eseju koji je napisao 50 godina kasnije Solmsen se prisetio tih godina i legendarnog filologa u jednom nacrtu biografije koja kombinuje političko-historijsku perspektivu, sociologiju akademskih institucija i lična zapažanja. "Ne sećam se da se Wilamowitz ikada glasno smejao", zapisao je u jednoj fusnoti. "Niti se ikada kezio".[3] Solmsenu su predavali i Eduard Norden, Otto Regenbogen i Werner Jaeger, a njima trojici i Wilamowitzu posvetio je prvi tom svojih sabranih spisa.[4] Bio je jedan od poslednjih ljudi kojima je već teško bolesni Wilamowitz uputio pismo.[5]

Solmsenova doktorska disertacija o Aristotelovoj logici i retorici objavljena je 1928. Polovinom tridesetih godina otišao je iz Nemačke kako bi pobegao od narastajućeg nacizma,[6] te je, nakon kraćeg boravka u Velikoj Britaniji, stigao u Sjedinjene Države, gde je predavao na koledžu Olivet u Michiganu (1937–1940). Zatim je prešao na Cornellov univerzitet,[7] gde je ostao 22 godine. Među ostalim predavanjima, držao je kurs "Temelji zapadne misli", koji je obrađivao historiju filozofskih, naučnih i religijskih ideja u antičkoj Grčkoj, helenističkom razdoblju i starom Rimu.[2]

Godine 1962. postao je profesor na Wisconsinskom univerzitetu u Madisonu.[8] Godine 1972. dobio je Goodwinovu nagradu za zasluge (Goodwin Award of Merit), koju mu je dodelilo Američko filološko društvo za izuzetan doprinos klasičnoj filologiji, odnosno za njegovo izdanje Hesiodovih dela, Teogonije, Poslova i dana i Štita Heraklova, koja su objavljena u ediciji Oksfordskih klasičnih tekstova.[9]

Solmsen se penzionisao 1974.[8] Nakon penzinisanja živeo je u Chapel Hillu u Severnoj Karolini i nastavio da piše i objavljuje nove radove. Povremeno je držao predavanja na Univerzitetu u Severnoj Karolini, držao seminare u organizaciji Nacionalne zadužbine za humanističke nauke te predavao i Pindaru i Plotinu.[10] Umro je u dobi od 84 godine i veći deo svoje biblioteke zaveštao univerzitetu. Iza sebe je ostavio suprugu, koja se zvala Lieselotte.[11] Kolege su mu odale počast kao "jednom od poslednjih velikana nemačke tradicije klasičnog humanizma".[10]

Dela

[uredi | uredi kod]

U svom eseju o Wilamowitzu, Solmsen se osvrnuo na klasične nauke kao naučnu disciplinu i intelektualnu aktivnost u okviru jednog šireg historijskog konteksta. "Generacija koja pripada vremenu nakon prvog svetkog rata, za koju je vrednost klasičnih studija postala problematična", zapisao je", nije [od Wilamowitza] dobila odgovor na svoje pitanje šta je antičku civilizaciju učinilo tako posebnom i vrednom intenzivnog proučavanja", dodajući da Wilamowitz "nije shvatio potrebu da te studije opravda generaciji kojoj je kontinuitet jedne tradicije koja seže do Goetheovog vremena bio oslabljen (premda ne i sasvim prekinut) i čije su perspektive još uvek bile u nastajanju; mnogi su, zapravo, svesno tražili neku novu orijentaciju".[12]

Ovde se daje bibilografija, uređena prema temi, a u okviru svake teme, prema hronologiji, s ciljem da se pokuša pružiti slika širokog dijapazona Solmsenovog doprinosa klasičnoj filologiji, no ona ni u kojem slučaju nije potpuna. Izostavljena je većina članaka na nemačkom, prikazi,[13] i beleške (tj. članci kraći od tri stranice). Većina članaka sabrana je u njegovom trotomnom delu Kleine Schriften (Hildesheim 1968–1982).
