Book From Song to Book

    Book Details:
  • Author : Sylvia Huot
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2019-05-15
  • ISBN : 1501746685
  • Pages : 598 pages

Download or read book From Song to Book written by Sylvia Huot and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the visual representation of an essentially oral text, Sylvia Huot points out, the medieval illuminated manuscript has a theatrical, performative quality. She perceives the tension between implied oral performance and real visual artifact as a fundamental aspect of thirteenth- and fourteenth-century poetics. In this generously illustrated volume, Huot examines manuscript texts both from the performance-oriented lyric tradition of chanson courtoise, or courtly love lyric, and from the self-consciously literary tradition of Old French narrative poetry. She demonstrates that the evolution of the lyrical romance and dit, narrative poems which incorporate thematic and rhetorical elements of the lyric, was responsible for a progressive redefinition of lyric poetry as a written medium and the emergence of an explicitly written literary tradition uniting lyric and narrative poetics. Huot first investigates the nature of the vernacular book in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, analyzing organization, page layout, rubrication, and illumination in a series of manuscripts. She then describes the relationship between poetics and manuscript format in specific texts, including works by widely read medieval authors such as Guillaume de Lorris, Jean de Meun, and Guillaume de Machaut, as well as by lesser-known writers including Nicole de Margival and Watriquet de Couvin. Huot focuses on the writers' characteristic modifications of lyric poetics; their use of writing and performance as theme; their treatment of the poet as singer or writer; and of the lady as implied reader or listener; and the ways in which these features of the text were elaborated by scribes and illuminators. Her readings reveal how medieval poets and book-makers conceived their common project, and how they distinguished their respective roles.

Book Courtly Love Songs of Medieval France

Download or read book Courtly Love Songs of Medieval France written by Mary O'Neill and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-12 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first full-length study of the courtly love songs of the trouvère to address the central musical problems of the repertoire as a whole, embracing source studies, interpretation, historiography, and analysis. The argument of the book revolves around three axes, each of which is essential to the appreciation of the others: problems concerning the extant manuscript tradition; the crucial role of orality; and stylistic changes and plurality in the reperotire. For the first time, a full overview of the sources and notation is undertaken. This reveals the idiosyncrasies of individual manuscripts but, more importantly, it identifies two basic phases in the manuscript tradition. The study of melodic variants reveals the performance art that lies at the heart of the courtly grand chant; processes and techniques of variation are examined, bringing us to a closer understanding of the tenets of the melodic art of the early trouvères. A close study of select trouvères from the different generation reveals stylstic change and plurality, particularly in the melodic art which in some respects was less prescribed than the poetic texts. Consequently the courtly songs of the trouvères truly come alive in this book.

Book Some Old French and English Ballads  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Some Old French and English Ballads Classic Reprint written by Robert Steele and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Old French and English Ballads The Ballad Poetry of a country is its most characteristic and its most enduring contribution to the romantic movement. Literary Romanticism has now swayed all currents of thought, again been banished in favour of classicism and formality, and once again triumphed, but through it all the love, the wonder, the terror, the imaginative spirit of these songs have been the unfailing refuge of the many from the narrowness of life, the inexhaustible source from which literature has at each renaissance drawn renewed strength and vigour. The little selection of some score of French and English Ballads now printed is perhaps the more representative of the popular poetry of the two countries, because it is not wholly anonymous or wholly popular. A poem, a folk-tale is not truly representative of its country until it can pass freely from cottage to palace, welcome alike and claiming kinship in either. The song which takes its rise among the people must be resung by the poet before it has lost its dross, the poet's composition must be censored by the million before it appeals to that universal element to which all great work is addressed. Simplicity, nobility, and the fortunate chance which says the unexpected right thing - all these must come together.
