Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oxford Historical and Literary Studies, Vol. 5: Issued Under the Direction of C. H. Firth and Walter Raleigh Professors of Modern History and English Literature in the University of Oxford They consist of letters in English and in Latin, and poems of various forms (verse-epistles, elegies, odes, hymns, satires, epigrams), with some prose characters' and devotions. In vestigation has shown that some of the poems are poetical exercises merely, paraphrases, in fact, of poems 'of Randolph and Suckling. And no very striking merit can be assigned to those other poems which are more original. But some of the satires have a coarse strength, and other poems illustrate at least the poetical fashions of the day, especially its fondness for 'conceits'. They throw some light on the acts and behaviour of the Parliamentarians and religious fanatics, and still more on the spirit in which Royalists and Churchmen, such as Tubbe, regarded them. The letters bring him in connexion with noble families such as the Wriothesleys, Devereux, Spencer's, and Tuftons, and afford an interesting picture of the life and feelings of a studious Royalist at a time when family ties were broken under the stress of party passions, when Royalists were driven into corners, and the high places of the world were occupied by their enemies. Hitherto the wish expressed by Mr. Thoms has remained unfulfilled. I hope, however, that an account of Tubbe and some specimens of his writings may still excite a little of that interest which Mr. Thorns anticipated for them half a century ago.

Download or read book The Oxford History of Classical Reception in English Literature written by Rita Copeland and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 771 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford History of Classical Reception in English Literature (OHCREL) is designed to offer a comprehensive investigation of the numerous and diverse ways in which literary texts of the classical world have stimulated responses and refashioning by English writers. Covering the full range of English literature from the early Middle Ages to the present day, OHCREL both synthesizes existing scholarship and presents cutting-edge new research, employing an international team of expert contributors for each of the five volumes. OHCREL endeavours to interrogate, rather than inertly reiterate, conventional assumptions about literary 'periods', the processes of canon-formation, and the relations between literary and non-literary discourse. It conceives of 'reception' as a complex process of dialogic exchange and, rather than offering large cultural generalizations, it engages in close critical analysis of literary texts. It explores in detail the ways in which English writers' engagement with classical literature casts as much light on the classical originals as it does on the English writers' own cultural context. This first volume, and fourth to appear in the series, covers the years c.800-1558, and surveys the reception and transformation of classical literary culture in England from the Anglo-Saxon period up to the Henrician era. Chapters on the classics in the medieval curriculum, the trivium and quadrivium, medieval libraries, and medieval mythography provide context for medieval reception. The reception of specific classical authors and traditions is represented in chapters on Virgil, Ovid, Lucan, Statius, the matter of Troy, Boethius, moral philosophy, historiography, biblical epics, English learning in the twelfth century, and the role of antiquity in medieval alliterative poetry. The medieval section includes coverage of Chaucer, Gower, and Lydgate, while the part of the volume dedicated to the later period explores early English humanism, humanist education, and libraries in the Henrician era, and includes chapters that focus on the classicism of Skelton, Douglas, Wyatt, and Surrey.
