Download or read book Chronicles written by Jean Froissart and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 1978-04-27 with total page 734 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chronicles of Froissart (1337-1410) are one of the greatest contemporary records of fourteenth-century England and France. Depicting the great age of Anglo-French rivalry from the deposition of Edward II to the downfall of Richard II, Froissart powerfully portrays the deeds of knights in battle at Sluys, Crecy, Calais and Poitiers during the Hundred Years War. Yet they are only part of this vigorous portrait of medieval life, which also vividly describes the Peasants' Revolt, trading activities and diplomacy against a backdrop of degenerate nobility. Written with the same sense of curiosity about character and customs that underlies the works of Froissart's contemporary, Chaucer, the Chronicles are a magnificent evocation of the age of chivalry.

Download or read book The Translations of Seamus Heaney written by Seamus Heaney and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complete translations of the poet Seamus Heaney, a Nobel laureate and prolific, revolutionary translator. Seamus Heaney’s translation of Beowulf, published in 1999, was immediately hailed as an undisputed masterpiece, “something imperishable and great” (James Wood, The Guardian). A few years after his death in 2013, his translation of Virgil’s Aeneid Book VI caused a similar stir, providing “a remarkable and fitting epilogue to one of the great poetic careers of recent times” (Nick Laird, Harper’s Magazine). Now, for the first time, the poet, critic, and essayist’s translations are gathered in one volume. Heaney translated not only classic works of Latin and Old English but also a great number of poems from Spanish, Romanian, Dutch, Russian, German, Scottish Gaelic, Czech, Ancient and Modern Greek, Middle and Modern French, and Medieval and Modern Italian, among other languages. In particular, the Nobel laureate engaged with works in Old, Middle, and Modern Irish, the languages of his homeland and early education. As he said, “If you lived in the Irish countryside as I did in my childhood, you lived in a primal Gaeltacht.” In The Translations of Seamus Heaney, Marco Sonzogni has collected Heaney’s translations and framed them with the poet’s own writings on his works and their composition, sourced from introductions, interviews, and commentaries. Through this volume, we come closer to grasping the true extent of Heaney’s extraordinary abilities and his genius.

Download or read book Shakespeare s Artists written by B. J. Sokol and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of the many poets, musicians and visual artists portrayed or described in Shakespeare's plays and poems reveals a fascination with art and its makers that continued to influence Shakespeare's work throughout his career. It also uncovers unexpected aspects of an enthusiastic Elizabethan consumption of artworks, an enthusiasm that had significant bearing on the quite new profession that Shakespeare himself followed. A high valuation placed on art and artists, and at the same time certain fears of these and fears for these, made for a very complex reception of the figure of the artist, and Shakespeare's treatments were equal to that complexity.

Download or read book Poetry in France written by Keith Aspley and published by Edinburgh : Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Although organised chronologically, POETRY IN FRANCE does not offer an analytical history of an entity that can be called 'French poetry'. Rather than presenting the story of a poetic tradition that starts with the Chanson de Roland and the troubadour poets and Passes via the Renaissance, Classicism and Romanticism to Baudelaire, Mallarme and twentieth-century poetry, the book describes a plurality of traditions: a history of discontinuities and conflicts, rejections and re-adoptions." "Within such a rich plurality, the reader of this volume will discern recurrent threads of unifying concerns such as the debate over the frontiers of prose, song and verse and the question of whether the correct poetic language should be elevated and formal or democratically everyday. The nature of inspiration and the centrality of the imagination in poetic creation are also explored, along with a consideration of the figure of the poet - entertainer or educator, prophet or politician, 'maker' or madman. Discussions of the changing position of poetry in society are also included, as is the debate over the nature of a canon in literature. The result is not intended to be a formal set of views on poets or a chronological literary history, rather it is an exploration of the nature of poetry in France, a consideration of its changing conceptions, functions, and forms."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
