Book The Image of Antiquity in Boccaccio s Filocolo  Filostrato  and Teseida

Download or read book The Image of Antiquity in Boccaccio s Filocolo Filostrato and Teseida written by James Harvey McGregor and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1991 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that in three of his early vernacular romances, Boccaccio, working with descriptive language, not with sketches or plastic imitations, presented to his contemporaries for the first time a vast and persuasive picture of an essential aspect of Greek and Roman Antiquity, the details of pre-Christian religious practices. Imitating literary works where the Romans described these practices, Boccaccio represented the ritual and physical details of pagan worship with its temples, cult images, altars, prayers and animal sacrifices. Such detailing is the necessary prelude to the many acts of imitation of the Antique that so preoccupied the painters, sculptors and decorative artists of the Renaissance. In it lies the beginning of modern archaeology.

Book An Analysis of Chaucer s and Boccaccio s Presentation of the Relationship Between the Characters Pandarus  Troilus and Criseyde in Boccaccio s Il Filos

Download or read book An Analysis of Chaucer s and Boccaccio s Presentation of the Relationship Between the Characters Pandarus Troilus and Criseyde in Boccaccio s Il Filos written by Nicole Knuppertz and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1.3, University of Cologne (English Department), course: Medieval English Literature: Chaucer and his Contemporaries, language: English, abstract: The story of Troilus and Criseyd has been told many times by different authors during the centuries. Within this term paper a closer look will be taken at the works of Geoffrey Chaucer's Troilus & Criseyde and Giovanni Boccaccio' Il Filostrato to illustrate that the story of Troilus and Criseyde can be interpreted from two different angles. Whereas, Giovanni Boccaccio focuses on the consequences of the relationship between Troilus and Criseyde within his work, Chaucer seems to be much more focused on the development of love in general- using the story of Troilus and Criseyde as a metaphor. Therefore, Chaucer uses the relationship between Troilus and Criseyde to present in what way the perception of love can change from happiness in to sorrow. To be able to narrow down and define the intentions of Boccaccio and Chaucer the central aspect will be lain on the presentation of the relationship between Troilus, Criseyde & Pandarus. Since the relationship between Troilus and Criseyde would neither start, nor find its fulfilling without the inference of Pandarus, the character of Pandarus gains a specific position within the relationship of Troilus and Criseyde. Furthermore, an analysis of the relationship between these three characters might give an answer in what way both Chaucer and Boccaccio represent their attitude towards the central theme of love. By concentrating on the ménage a trois between the characters, it is furthermore possible to analyse which position Pandarus inherits and in what way he uses or abuses it. Consequently, the question needs to be solved why Chaucer represents Pandarus as Criseyde's uncle, whereas he is 'only' Criseyde's cousin within Boccaccio's poem. Therefore, the role of Pandarus
