Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classical Mythology in Shakespeare The term classical mythology has been taken to include not only the divinities of the ancient religion and such tales as those of Ovid's Metamorphoses, but also the heroes of the Trojan war and the personages of the Eneid. In a number of cases, such, for example, as Fortune, Nature, and Fame, it has not been easy to draw a hard and fast line between mythology and mere philosophical personification. In Part First, where the myths are discussed severally, I have been inclined to include such subjects, while excluding them as doubtful from the generalizations Of Part Second and the Introduction.

Download or read book Interweaving myths in Shakespeare and his contemporaries written by Janice Valls-Russell and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume proposes new insights into the uses of classical mythology by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, focusing on interweaving processes in early modern appropriations of myth. Its 11 essays show how early modern writing intertwines diverse myths and plays with variant versions of individual myths that derive from multiple classical sources, as well as medieval, Tudor and early modern retellings and translations. Works discussed include poems and plays by William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and others. Essays concentrate on specific plays including The Merchant of Venice and Dido Queen of Carthage, tracing interactions between myths, chronicles, the Bible and contemporary genres. Mythological figures are considered to demonstrate how the weaving together of sources deconstructs gendered representations. New meanings emerge from these readings, which open up methodological perspectives on multi-textuality, artistic appropriation and cultural hybridity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ... Cyclops--Diana 51 taur mentioned. Both names are mentioned in North's Plutarch, Theseus, p. 49. Danae (?).--Rom. 1. 1. 220. See Jupiter. Daphne.--Mids. 2. 1. 231; Troil. 1. 1. 101; Shr. Ind. 2. 61. See Apollo. Destiny, Destinies.--See Fate. Deucalion.--Cor. 2. 1. 102; Wint. 4. 4. 441; (Cses. 1. 2. 152). Deucalion is mentioned twice in plays with classical setting as equivalent to Noah, i. e. as the common ancestor of the race, or as one standing in the dawn of history. Cf. 'Since before Noah was a sailor, ' Tw. 3. 2. 18. The 'great flood' of Ges. 1. 2. 152 is probably Deucalion's. For the story see Met. 1. 313 seq. Diana. It is as patroness and type of chastity that Shakespeare most often alludes to Diana. These allusions, of which there are sixteen in the authentic plays, cover the whole range of Shakespeare's activity from Mids. to Cymb., and are pretty evenly divided between tragedies and comedies, but never occur in the histories. In this capacity, Diana is antithetic to Cupid (or Venus). The antithesis is expressed in Rom. 1. 1. 215; Ado 4. 1. 58; Alls 1. 3. 218; 2. 3. 80. In Mids. 4. 1. 76, Dian's bud o'er Cupid's flower Hath such force and blessed power, Steevens sees an allusion to the Agnus Castus, 'the virtue of which is that he will keep man and woman chaste' (see the Chaucerian Flower and the Leaf 472-5). The line is more simply explained by Ado 4. 1. 58: You seem to me as Dian in her orb, As chaste as is the bud ere it be blown. Still the context would seem to show that 'Cupid's flower' is the 'love-in-idleness' of 2. 1. 168, and we not unnaturally expect a particular flower to counteract its charm. It is noticeable that as patroness of chastity, Shakespeare mentions the divinity by only one name, Diana (or Dian). Next in..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroines of History: Typical Heroines of Mythology, of Shakespeare, of the Bible The heroic element in woman's character receives more or less emphasis in all forms of literature and in every period of history. Wherever found it is one and the same vir tue. But it may be associated with very dissimilar mental qualities and very unlike ethical notions in different individuals, races, and ages. The historic heroine may differ widely in her moral and mental entirety from any heroine of poetry or romance - any crea tion of the imagination. The heroine of the Bible may not as a type correspond in the unity of her womanhood to the Greek heroine of mythology. But when we find the strong, splendid virtue of heroism in historical or fictitious, in real or ideal, in scriptural or mythological character, it is ever one and the same thing.
