Perspectives of Roman Poetry
Author: Karl Galinsky
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 029277284X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
Written by leading specialists, the essays in Perspectives of Roman Poetry seek to provide a broad range of readers with a good understanding of some essential aspects of major Roman poets and poetic genres. The value of the essays is enhanced, for comparative purposes, by their extensive reference to modern authors. such as Shakespeare and Tolkien. For the modern reader, Latin quotations are accompanied by effective English translations. The essays and their authors are as follows: "The Woman's Role in Latin Love Poetry," by Georg Luck "Autobiography and Art in Horace," by William S. Anderson "Some Trees in Virgil and Tolkien," by Kenneth J. Reckford "The Business of Roman Comedy," by Erich Segal "Ovid's Metamorphosis of Myth," by G. Karl Galinsky The preface and concluding panel discussion illumine the situation of literary criticism inthe classics and point out the need for diversity. Perspectives of Roman Poetry resulted from a symposium held at the University of Texas at Austin in 1972. These essays offer different and, in some cases, heterodox interpretations that will serve as a basis for future discussions.

We all have our take on what is divine and what makes things divine. As we get older we tend to spend more time contemplating the divine.

The Condition of Music and Anglophone Influences in the Poetry of Shao Xunmei
Author: Tian Jin
Publisher: Vernon Press
ISBN: 1648890628
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
This book examines the unique poetics of Shao Xunmei 邵洵美 (1906-1968), a Chinese poet who has long been marginalized by contemporary criticism. Shao aspires to reach the condition of music in poetry, which bears a resemblance to three Anglophone writers whom he applauds: Algernon Charles Swinburne, Edith Sitwell, and George Augustus Moore. The Condition of Music and Anglophone Influences in the Poetry of Shao Xunmei investigates how these three writers influenced Shao, and how this inspiration helped shape his idea of the condition of music in poetry. In the scope of world literature, this book aims to fill a small but important puzzle piece in the global network of literary influence. In a world where cultural exchanges have become increasingly frequent and convenient, and at a time when counter-globalization seems to burgeon into a hazardous trend, it is beneficial to look back to the 1920s-1930s, a time that is as equally tumultuous as today, to examine the global influence network that has taken us where we are, and to understand that in the dynamic of literary influence, no single piece of literature can have its significance alone. This groundbreaking book will benefit the scholarship of Shao and contribute to the relevant research in Chinese studies and word and music studies. Therefore, it will be of great use and interest to researchers of comparative literature, Chinese literature, and world literature, as well as scholars of word and music studies.

Excerpt from L'allegro, IL Penseroso Comus, and Lycidas Untwisting all the chains that tie The hidden soul of harmony. Il Penseroso starts out in the early evening hours; he listens to the song of the nightingale, or, as he walks in the moonlight, hears the far-off curfew sound; he spends the evening in the contemplation of the great tragedies of antiquity, or devotes the later hours of the night to the study of the mysteries of life and immortality; and with the break of day he betakes himself to some quiet nook in the woods, or listens, under the high-em l' bowed roof of church or cathedral, to the ecstatic music of full-voiced choir and pealing organ.
