Whiles thus there was bandying of such looks, as every one imported as much as an impreso, SAMELA, willing to see the fashion of these country young frows, cast her eyes abroad, and in viewing every face, at last her eyes glanced on the looks of MELICERTUs, whose countenance resembled so unto her dead lord, that as a woman astonied, she stood staring on his face; but ashamed to gaze upon a stranger, she made restraint of her looks, and so taking her eye from her particular object, she sent it abroad to make general survey of their country demeanours. But amidst all this gazing, he that had seen poor MENAPIIoN; how, infected with ajealous fury, he stared each man in the face, fearing their eyes should feed or surfeit on his mistress's beauty: if they glanced, he thought straight they would be rivals in his loves; if they flatly looked, then they were deeply snared in affection; if they once smiled on her, they had received some glance from SAMELA that had made them so malapert; if she laughed, she liked, and at that he began to frown. Thus sat poor MENAPHoN all dinner while, pained with a thousand jealous passions, keeping his teeth guarders of his stomach, and his eyes watchmen of his loves. But MELICEIvrvs, half impatient of his new conceived thoughts, determined to try how the damsel was brought up, and whether she was as wise as beautiful: he therefore began to break silence thus. " The orgies which the Bacchanals kept in Thessalia, the feasts which the melancholy Saturnists founded in Danuby, were never so quailed with silence, but on their festival days they did frolic amongst themselves with many pleasant parleys: were it not a shame, then, that we of...

Book Writing after Sidney

Download or read book Writing after Sidney written by Gavin Alexander and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2010-10-14 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing After Sidney examines the literary response to Sir Philip Sidney (1554-86), author of the Arcadia, Astrophil and Stella, and The Defence of Poesy, and the most immediately influential writer of the Elizabethan period. It does so by looking closely both at Sidney and at four writers who had an important stake in his afterlife: his sister Mary Sidney, his brother Robert Sidney, his best friend Fulke Greville, and his niece Mary Wroth. At the same time as these authors wrote their own works in response to Sidney they presented his life and writings to the world, and were shaped by other writers as his literary and political heirs. Readings of these five central authors are embedded in a more general study of the literary and cultural scene in the years after Sidney's death, examining the work of such writers as Spenser, Jonson, Daniel, Drayton, and Herbert. The study uses a wide range of manuscript and printed sources, and key use is made of perspectives from Renaissance literary theory, especially Renaissance rhetoric. The book aims to come to a better understanding of the nature of Sidney's impact on the literature of the fifty or so years after his death in 1586; it also aims to improve our understanding both of Sidney and of the other writers discussed by developing a more nuanced approach to the questions of imitation and example so central to Renaissance literature. It thereby adds to the general store of our understanding of how writing of the English Renaissance offered examples to later readers and writers, and of how it encountered and responded to such examples itself.

Book Writing Robert Greene

Download or read book Writing Robert Greene written by Kirk Melnikoff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Greene, contemporary of Shakespeare and Marlowe and member of the group of six known as the "University Wits," is the subject of this essay collection, the first to be dedicated solely to his work. Although in his short lifetime Greene published some three dozen prose works, composed at least five plays, and was one of the period's most recognized-even notorious-literary figures, his place within the canon of Renaissance writers has been marginal at best. Writing Robert Greene offers a reappraisal of Greene's career and of his contribution to Elizabethan culture. Rather than drawing lines between Greene's work for the pamphlet market and for the professional theatres, the essays in the volume imagine his writing on a continuum. Some essays trace the ways in which Greene's poetry and prose navigate differing cultural economies. Others consider how the full spectrum of his writing contributes to an emergent professional discourse about popular print and theatrical culture. The volume includes an annotated bibliography of recent scholarship on Greene and three valuable appendices (presenting apocrypha; edition information; and editions organized by year of publication).

Book Robert Greene

Download or read book Robert Greene written by Kirk Melnikoff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Robert Greene was the most prolific and perhaps the most notorious professional writer in Elizabethan England, he continues to be best known for his 1592 quip comparing Shakespeare to "an upstart crow." In his short twelve-year career, Greene wrote dozens of popular pamphlets in a variety of genres and numerous professional plays. At his premature death in 1592, he was a bonafide London celebrity, simultaneously maligned as Grub-Street profligate and celebrated as literary prodigy. The present volume constitutes the first collection of Greene's reception both in the early modern period and in our present era, offering in its poems, prose passages, essays, and chapters that which is most singular among what has been written about Greene and his work. It also includes a complete list of Greene's contemporary reception until 1640. Kirk Melnikoff's wide-ranging and revisionist introduction organizes this reception generically while at the same time situating it in the context of recent critical methodologies.

Book Fictions of Authorship in Late Elizabethan Narratives

Download or read book Fictions of Authorship in Late Elizabethan Narratives written by Katharine Wilson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-02-23 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sensational narratives of John Lyly, Robert Greene, and Thomas Lodge established prose fiction as an independent genre in the late sixteenth century. The texts they created are a paradoxical blend of outrageous plotting and rhetorical sophistication, high and low culture. Although their works were feverishly devoured by contemporary readers, these writers are usually only known to students as sources for Shakespearean comedy. Fictions of Authorship in Late Elizabethan Narratives re-examines some of the pamphleteers earlier critics christened the 'University Wits', young professionals who exposed their education and talents to the still new and uncertain world of mass market publication. These texts chart their authors' disenchantment with the limitations of romance and of their own careers, yet they also form an alternative canon of vernacular writing, which is both self-referential and self-questioning. Shocking, unpredictable, and very engaging, these narratives provide a vivid commentary on the interface between popular taste and 'English literature'.
