Abstract:

In 1730, a collection of treatises on singing and playing various musical instruments was published in London. It included “A Brief History of Music” and a small musical dictionary. Neither on the title page nor elsewhere in the text do we find information about its author/authors. Today, both reference and encyclopedic literature as well as special scholarly works refer to Peter Prelleur as the author (very rarely the compiler) of the collection. However, when comparing the basic explanations of musical theory and the basic performing principles in each individual treatise, these explanations

ABSTRACT This article considers those manuscripts that either are or include collections of Middle English verse romances. They form a small proportion, no more than eleven manuscripts, of the romance manuscripts that survive. The article seeks to assess the factors involved in the creation of these collections and to place them in the wider contexts of surviving manuscripts that include verse romances.

Abstract:

In my examination of the influence of John Milton’s poetry on eighteenth century literature, I argue that eighteenth-century writers engage with ideas of space and place as they seek to transform Miltonic verse into a suitable medium for describing the Newtonian astronomy and imperial geography of their day. My first chapter examines John Philips’s Cyder and John Dyer’s The Fleece alongside county maps and commercial atlases, as part of a study of how their verse appropriates Milton’s politics and revises his geography. In my second chapter, I use digital mapping technology to explore the diff

Abstract:

In 1792, the inventor and illusionist Paul Philidor unveiled the ‘Phantasmagoria’ to the people of Paris. Coined by combining the Greek words ‘phantasma’ (appearance, vision, ghost) and ‘agora’ (assembly), Philidor had intended the name to suggest a vast crowd of the undead, a riotous carnival of phantoms. He promised his audience that, using the projections of a magic lantern and other ingenious mechanical devices, he would show them the illusory shapes of ghosts and monsters, reunite lovers separated by death, and call fiends out of hell. However, this exhibition of illusory spectres was to

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the literary and historical contexts of four collections of medical material from Anglo-Saxon England. These collections are widely known under the titles Bald's Leechbook, Leechbook III, the Lacnunga, and the Old English Pharmacopeia. As medical literature, these texts have tended to be primarily approached through the lens of the history of medicine or cultural history and folklore. However, as textual compositions carefully engaging with learned culture, these texts are relevant to the wider literary history of the period. The aim of this thesis is to examine thes

Abstract:

Prose murder pamphlets first appeared during the final three decades of the sixteenth century and were a successful part of the early modern market for cheap print throughout the seventeenth century. There is a corpus of over 350 extant prose murder pamphlets printed between 1573 and 1700. The literary analysis of murder pamphlets undertaken in this research reveals them as an identifiable genre with recognisable narrative and rhetorical strategies. The Calvinist theology of providence and predestination gave the prose murder pamphlets their distinctive chain-link structure which began with or

Abstract:

This thesis examines the work of antiquary and scholar Joseph Ritson (1752-1803) in publishing significant and influential collections of early English and Scottish literature, including the first collection of medieval romance, by going beyond the biographical approaches to Ritson's work typical of nineteenth- and twentieth-century accounts, incorporating an analysis of Ritson's contributions to specific fields into a study of the context which made his work possible. It makes use of the 'Register of Manuscripts Sent to the Reading Room of the British Museum' to shed new light on Ritson's use

Abstract:

In a world that devours one technological advance after another, the simple human questions persist. They endure despite the increased speed of the personal computer or the decreased size of the cellular phone. In a time ruled by measurements they remain elusive and undefined. The longing for love, the crisis of past versus present, the nagging hunger for meaning in the face of constant change--these questions manage to be both small and huge, both slow and fast, all at once. They are the inheritance of every generation; they are written on the very lining of our hearts. These stories are, the

Abstract:

As this study is concerned with the noetic process of a pre-literate, oral tradition in eighteenth century Scotland, we are obliged to address that mental economy through residual artifacts which survive in translation as products of a print driven, literary culture. As such, those artifacts have already been engaged to a literary process and, if they are to be subjected here to a further breach of cultural integrity, it is a minimum requirement that we attempt to respect the intellectual and psychological priorities which energise the traditional word.

Abstract:

Abstract What would it mean to take seriously the idea that there is something backward about Renaissance women’s lyrics? Appearing belatedly in our critical purview, female-authored poems have seemed out of step with the supposed trajectories of English poetry. However, interpretive methods offer models for reading the recalcitrant. Backwardness represents a problem only if we assume that ‘forward’ is the direction in which literature must go. This chapter reclaims ‘backwardness’ as a formal condition of early modern women’s lyric. It argues for three types of lyric backwardness: the ‘negative, shameful, and difficult’ feelings that Heather Love has termed ‘feeling backward’; the temporal backwardness of collections created across distinct moments in time; and how manuscripts incite a literal mode of backward reading. Arguing for the value of reading backward both within and across lyrics, this chapter advocates for critical approaches that are more attuned to early modern women’s perverse and innovative poetic trajectories.

Abstract:

Abstract What characteristics define an early modern library? Justus Lipsius, one of the earliest commentators to examine the issue, suggested two possibilities in his De Bibliothecis of 1602:one could define it spatially as a place where books were kept, or alternatively as the collections housed in these structures.¹ Whereas this bipartite definition reflects modern conceptions of libraries other early modern definitions seem strange to us today: Lipsius suggested that shops where books were sold were also libraries, and later seventeenthcentury writers added yet another possibility—a ‘bibliotheque ‘ could comprise a compilation of books by authors on the same subject.² For contemporaries, then, defining what constituted a library was by no means obvious.

Abstract:

Abstract The cultural value that Jews have long invested in translation and their attraction to what David Stem terms the “anthological habit” converge in anthologies of Yiddish literature in translation. While these collections bear traits in common with other anthologies in the Jewish library, they are distinguished by the association of Yiddish with vemacularity, especially with the particulars of Ashkenazic vernacular speech and culture as they took shape within a variety of multilingual Diaspora milieus. Anthologies of modem Yiddish literature translated into English (the largest corpus of Yiddish belles lettres rendered in a non-Jewish language) seek to present the unique achievement of this modem secular literature to new audiences-not only to non-Jews and non-Ashkenazim, but to the growing number of descendants of Yiddish speakers who no longer speak or read Yiddish and who have a very different sense of Jewish linguistic and cultural vemacularity than did their recent forebears. For this reason, these collections are of interest not only as literary works of translation and canonization, but also as agents of cultural transmission.
