Book An Analysis of Sir Philip Sidney s The Defence of Poesy

Download or read book An Analysis of Sir Philip Sidney s The Defence of Poesy written by Liam Haydon and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Defence of Poesy is the first major piece of literary criticism in English. Taking aim at classical authors who disparaged poetry, and contemporary critics who saw literature as a corrupting influence, Sidney foregrounds the moral force of poetry. Sidney considers the real life affects of poetry upon the reader arguing that the stories instill virtues like courage in the reader. He combines this moral argument with a discussion of the technical features like genre, metre and rhyme. The Defence of Poesy thus began a long tradition of poets writing about poetry and is a touchstone for modern poetic criticism.

This book was released on 2024-02-29 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1984, Sir Philip Sidney and the Interpretation of Renaissance Culture is a collection of essays which reflect the diversity of contemporary approaches to the controversial figure of Sir Philip Sidney, and range from the ‘historicist’ to the ‘revisionist’. Interest in the work of Sir Philip Sidney, in the cultural significance of his ‘Circle’ in the late Elizabethan age and the following years, has always been a subject of interest. Ever since Sidney’s friend Fulke Greville saw his early death as a watershed in English history, the place of this aristocratic poet in literary, cultural and even popular tradition has been momentous. Elevated to mythological status by his contemporaries who survived, he has not lost his power to attract and charm readers of all kids. This book will be of interest to students of literature and history.

Book An Apologie for Poetrie by Sir Philip Sidney

Download or read book An Apologie for Poetrie by Sir Philip Sidney written by Evelyn S. Shuckburgh and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-14 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it was first published in 1891, this edition of Sir Philip Sidney's Apologie for Poetrie (or the Defense of Poetry) represented a clear departure from previous editions. The Cambridge Fellow and classical scholar Evelyn S. Shuckburgh set to the task of correcting the numerous errors and alterations which had accumulated over the course of many previous editions, beginning with the folio version of 1598. Shuckburgh's text draws from the collation of seven earlier editions, giving precedence to the first printing of 1595 for which he consulted the copy held in the British Museum. The result is a precise and thorough text, complete with notes, a glossarial index and an introductory description of Sidney's life and works.
