Franz Xaver Messerschmidt (1736-1783) is one of the most fascinating sculptors of the Enlightenment. His portraits - of members of the Imperial household as well as eminent philosophers and scholars - show how far he surpassed traditional portrait styles. German text. Franz Xaver Messerschmidt (1736-1783) ist bis heute einer der faszinierendsten Bildhauer der Aufklarung. Selbst wer mit dem Namen des Kunstlers nichts verbindet, ist doch seinen beruhmtesten Werken schon einmal begegnet: den Charakterkopfen. Fur seine fruhesten Werke, im wesentlichen Portrats des Kaiserhauses, erfuhr Messerschmidt allerhochste Zustimmung. Auch bedeutende Aufklarer und Gelehrte liessen sich von ihm portratieren. Mit diesen Portrats sagte er sich von der traditionellen Portratform los.

In Gender, Heterosexuality, and Youth Violence, James W. Messerschmidt unravels some of the mysteries of teenage violence. Written by one of the most respected scholars on the subject of gendered crime, this book provides a fascinating account of the connections among adolescent masculinities and femininities, bullying in schools, the body, heterosexuality, and violence and nonviolence.After an introduction that lays out key concepts, including a revised structured action theory, Messerschmidt shares six compelling life-histories of white working-class boys and girls who have all been victims of severe forms of bullying at school. The book is unique in its comparative approach between violent and nonviolent youth, between boys and girls as offenders and non-offenders, between assaultive and sexual violence, and among a variety of masculinities and femininities. It also addresses how heterosexuality is related to sex, gender, and certain forms of violence or non-violence.The penetrating life histories are partially drawn from Messerschmid’s previous books Nine Lives and Flesh and Blood, as well as several completely new life-history interviews.
