Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Meditative Lyrics N the treatise before us we shall purposely confine ourselves to the domain of British or English lyrics, as distinct from American, these latter hav ing already been studied by us in a volume which may be best regarded as a companion of the one now presented.* So broad and rich is, this lyric area, even within the specific province of the medi tative, that we cannot hope to compass the en tire list of representative names, but must content ourselves with a limited portion of it. We must, moreover, be satisfied with brief citations and sug gestions, making no attempt whatever at elaborate discussion. Few topics within the sphere of literary study impress us as more inviting and recompen sing, especially so to those of contemplative habit, and who feel at home in that quiet and still air of delightful studies of which the meditative Mil ton speaks. This volume will have accomplished its object if by it the reader is enriched and quick enedin spirit, and led to seek for further treasure in this open mine of lyric wealth. T. W. H.

Book The English Lyric Tradition

Download or read book The English Lyric Tradition written by R. James Goldstein and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-04-03 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern readers can sometimes be unsure about the language and the literary conventions of medieval and Renaissance verse--lyrical works written at a time before poetry was assumed to be about personal expression. This readers' guide introduces to a 21st century audience some of the greatest masterpieces of English poetry spanning five centuries. Focusing on poems by Chaucer, Wyatt, Shakespeare, Milton and others, the author discusses the development of poetic technique, explains the rhetorical culture of earlier centuries and describes the various lyric forms--including lover's complaints, sonnets and elegies--that poets used to communicate with readers.

Book What Kind of a Thing Is a Middle English Lyric

Download or read book What Kind of a Thing Is a Middle English Lyric written by Cristina Maria Cervone and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Kind of a Thing Is a Middle English Lyric? considers issues pertaining to a corpus of several hundred short poems written in Middle English between the twelfth and early fifteenth centuries. The chapters draw on perspectives from varied disciplines, including literary criticism, musicology, art history, and cognitive science. Since the early 1900s, the poems have been categorized as “lyrics,” the term now used for most kinds of short poetry, yet neither the difficulties nor the promise of this treatment have received enough attention. In one way, the book argues, considering these poems to be lyrics obscures much of what is interesting about them. Since the nineteenth century, lyrics have been thought of as subjective and best read without reference to cultural context, yet nonetheless they are taken to form a distinct literary tradition. Since Middle English short poems are often communal and usually spoken, sung, and/or danced, this lyric template is not a good fit. In another way, however, the very differences between these poems and the later ones on which current debates about the lyric still focus suggest they have much to offer those debates, and vice versa. As its title suggests, this book thus goes back to the basics, asking fundamental questions about what these poems are, how they function formally and culturally, how they are (and are not) related to other bodies of short poetry, and how they might illuminate and be illuminated by contemporary lyric scholarship. Eleven chapters by medievalists and two responses by modernists, all in careful conversation with one another, reflect on these questions and suggest very different answers. The editors’ introduction synthesizes these answers by suggesting that these poems can most usefully be read as a kind of “play,” in several senses of that word. The book ends with eight “new Middle English lyrics” by seven contemporary poets.

Book Theory of the Lyric

Download or read book Theory of the Lyric written by Jonathan Culler and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2015-06-08 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What sort of thing is a lyric poem? An intense expression of subjective experience? The fictive speech of a specifiable persona? Theory of the Lyric reveals the limitations of these two conceptions of the lyric—the older Romantic model and the modern conception that has come to dominate the study of poetry—both of which neglect what is most striking and compelling in the lyric and falsify the long and rich tradition of the lyric in the West. Jonathan Culler explores alternative conceptions offered by this tradition, such as public discourse made authoritative by its rhythmical structures, and he constructs a more capacious model of the lyric that will help readers appreciate its range of possibilities. “Theory of the Lyric brings Culler’s own earlier, more scattered interventions together with an eclectic selection from others’ work in service to what he identifies as a dominant need of the critical and pedagogical present: turning readers’ attention to lyric poems as verbal events, not fictions of impersonated speech. His fine, nuanced readings of particular poems and kinds of poems are crucial to his arguments. His observations on the workings of aspects of lyric across multiple different structures are the real strength of the book. It is a work of practical criticism that opens speculative vistas for poetics but always returns to poems.” —Elizabeth Helsinger, Critical Theory
