Abstract:
AbstractA poem by a French monk named Herbert petitions Wulfgar Abbot of Abingdon for a gift of warm clothing. The poem, a mock epic employing alliteration and hermeneutic vocabulary, presents the seasons as warring deities. Using similar technique in the final eight lines of the poem, Wulfgar denies Herbert with a humourous response. This article contains an edition, translation, and analysis of the poem, along with brief biographies of the two authors. Another work by Herbert, a prosimetric letter requesting an allowance of fish, is edited and translated in an appendix.

Abstract:
This paper considers a Sapphic poem written by E. E. Cummings: ‘the phonograph may(if it likes)be prophe’, which takes aim at Ezra Pound's relationship to the classical tradition and in particular at Pound's classicising use of quantitative metre. Cummings’ humourous but biting poem comments on Pound's literary ideas in the light of his fascist politics. Cummings’ poem constructs a layered discussion about ownership of the Classical tradition and about the privileging of the Classical aesthetic versus the English ear in English-language poetry. Thus Cummings offers both a critique of Pound and, implicitly, a literary argument concerning the role of the Classics in English verse.

Abstract:
A little known Greek author, generally ignored by most handbooks of literary history, Archestratos of Gela, is regarded by the most qualified scholars as the “Father of Western Gastronomy”. He worked during the second half of the 4th century BC; his poem, Hedypatheia (Life of pleasure), is a peculiar Lehrgedicht, result of a refined art, very well controlled and never excessive, humourous, resulting from an unexpected contrast between the hexametric form and the original grastronomic topic. From this serio-comic and allusive work only 62 fragments survive, amounting around 330 lines. This ancient gastronome travelled all around the world for the sake of philedonia and had much fun translating his taste experiences into verse. He thought that only direct autopsy is a guarantee of success in cooking. This is a sort of “vademecum of the gourmet” (Lesky), that generates the rule of WHERE/HOW/WHEN, which is still an excellent guide.

Abstract:
Internet trolling describe the posting of any content on the Internet which is provocative or offensive, which is different from the original meaning online in the 1990s, referring to the posting of messages for humourous effect. Those systems operators (sysops) who run online communities are being targeted because of abuse posted on their platforms. Political discussion groups are some of the most prone to trolling, whether consensual or unwanted. Many such websites ara open for anyone to join, meaning when some members post messages they know are offensive but legal, others might find grossly offensive, meaning these messages could be illegal. This paper develops a questionnaire called the This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things Scale (TIWWCHNT-20), which aims to help sysops better plan the development of online communities to take account of different users' capacity to be offended, and for users to self-assess whether they will be suited to an online community. The scale is discussed in relation to different Internet posting techniques where different users will act differently.
