Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History and Motives of Literary Forgeries: Being the Chancellor's English Essay for 1891 The pseudo-isidorian Decretals appeared about the middle of the ninth century. A decretal is an authoritative answer given by the Pope in reply to some question on matters of doctrine, discipline or ritual. Such deliverances had been gathered together from early times, and there was a famous Spanish collection of the fourth century. The forgery also bore the name of a Spaniard, Isidore of Seville, who died in 636 a.d. It contained, besides some authentic documents, the Donation of Constantine, and a number of others either spurious or interpolated. They extended from the papacy of St. Clement in the first century to that of Gregory in the eighth, and covered the whole ground of orthodox behaviour and belief. Their genuineness was first impugned by Nicholas of Cusa, and was afterwards made the subject of an attack by Calvin. The object of the writer must have been at once to protect the clergy from the secular power and to preserve them from moral decay he favours the interests of the bishops, rather than that of the Pope. He has been supposed to be Benedictus Levita of Mayence all that it is safe to assert is that the work was probably done by some F rankish ecclesiastic or ecclesiastics, shortly before it was made public r. The remaining forgeries of the Middle Ages resemble in character those already discussed. They are generally of monkish origin, and designed to secure dignities or posses sions to some religious community. Since the monks were the sole possessors of sufficient learning to read parchments, they were able to manipulate them as they pleased, without much fear of detection. Thus the inmates of Durham Priory, when summoned to Rome in the beginning of the thirteenth century for the decision of the disputes between them and Bishop de Marisco, were able to produce an elaborate series of documents in support of their claims. These professed to date from the foundation of the priory in 1093, but to the eye of the modern historian they are ap parent forgeries, fabricated for the purposes of the trial 1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The essays gathered in this volume demonstrate that studying early modern European literary forgeries is a fascinating cultural adventure” (Lina Bolzoni author of The Gallery of Memory). This comprehensive study of literary and historiographical forgery goes well beyond questions of authorship. It spotlights the imaginative vitality of forgery and its sinister impact on genuine scholarship. This volume demonstrates that early modern forgery was a literary tradition in its own right, with distinctive connections to politics, Greek and Roman classics, religion, philosophy, and modern literature. The early modern explosion in forgery of all kinds—particularly in the fields of literary and archaeological falsification—demonstrates a dramatic shift in attitudes toward historical evidence and in the relation of texts to contemporary society. The authors capture the impact of this evolution within many cultural transformations, including the rise of print, changing tastes and fortunes of the literary marketplace, and the Protestant and Catholic Reformations. The thirteen essays draw on Johns Hopkins University’s Bibliotheca Fictiva, the world’s premier research collection dedicated exclusively to the subject of literary forgery. It consists of several thousand rare books and unique manuscript materials from the early modern period and beyond.

Download or read book Literary Forgeries Classic Reprint written by James Anson Farrer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literary Forgeries Perhaps the historical novelist may go too far, despite his privileges. In writing T/ie Monk of Fife, years ago, I professed to have discovered the continuation, in French, of a genuine manuscript account of Jeanne d'arc, begun in Latin by her friend, a Scot, and mysteriously broken off in the middle of a sentence. I even went so far as to forge extracts, in Old French, from the chapel register of St. Catherine of Fierbois, confirmatory of my narrative. Perhaps this was wrong. It was a blunder, if not a crime, for a learned mediaevalist could not make out whether he had a modern novel or a fifteenth century docu ment in his hands, while the novel-reading public exclaimed, Oh, this is a horrid real history! Let this be a warning to historical novelists. As to poets, if the public will not read their poems, is it likely that they will be read when expressed in Wardour Street English, Wardour Street spelling, and attributed to a monk of the fourteenth century? Chatterton was guilty of a blunder as well as a crime, with his old Rowley the monk. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
