Download or read book Gabriel Harvey and the History of Reading written by Anthony Grafton and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2024-01-08 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few articles in the humanities have had the impact of Lisa Jardine and Anthony Grafton’s seminal ‘Studied for Action’ (1990), a study of the reading practices of Elizabethan polymath and prolific annotator Gabriel Harvey. Their excavation of the setting, methods and ambitions of Harvey’s encounters with his books ignited the History of Reading, an interdisciplinary field which quickly became one of the most exciting corners of the scholarly cosmos. A generation inspired by the model of Harvey fanned out across the world’s libraries and archives, seeking to reveal the many creative, unexpected and curious ways that individuals throughout history responded to texts, and how these interpretations in turn illuminate past worlds. Three decades on, Harvey’s example and Jardine’s work remain central to cutting-edge scholarship in the History of Reading. By uniting ‘Studied for Action’ with published and unpublished studies on Harvey by Jardine, Grafton and the scholars they have influenced, this collection provides a unique lens on the place of marginalia in textual, intellectual and cultural history. The chapters capture subsequent work on Harvey and map the fields opened by Jardine and Grafton’s original article, collectively offering a posthumous tribute to Lisa Jardine and an authoritative overview of the History of Reading.
Download or read book Gabriel Harvey s Marginalia Classic Reprint written by G. C. Moore Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-16 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gabriel Harvey's Marginalia The general intention and scope of this book will be gathered from the Introduction which follows; but after that Introduction and most of the following pages were printed off, the book received a most important addition in the new set of marginalia drawn from Harvey's copy of Speght's Chaucer (1598). These marginalia in their bearing on the date of Hamlet were discussed by Malone, Steevens, and Bishop Percy (the possessor) in the eighteenth century. Since then, it has been supposed that the book perished in a fire at Northumberland House (see p. 86). Although Mrs. Stopes assured me three years ago that this was an error, I was no nearer getting access to the volume, till Sir Ernest Clarke kindly informed me much more recently that he had been permitted to see it at the house of the lady who now owns it, herself a great-granddaughter of Bishop Percy. After some further correspondence he was able to convey Miss Meade's very kind invitation to me to see the book. This invitation I accepted with alacrity, and to crown my happiness, Miss Meade most cordially allowed me to publish the notes and photographic fac-similes. My readers will join me in gratitude to her for her generosity, and to Sir Ernest Clarke for his very great kindness in the matter. The special interest which these marginalia have is twofold.

Download or read book Reading and Not Reading The Faerie Queene written by Catherine Nicholson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The four-hundred-year story of readers' struggles with a famously unreadable poem—and what they reveal about the history of reading and the future of literary studies "I am now in the country, and reading in Spencer's fairy-queen. Pray what is the matter with me?" The plaint of an anonymous reader in 1712 sounds with endearing frankness a note of consternation that resonates throughout The Faerie Queene's reception history, from its first known reader, Spenser's friend Gabriel Harvey, who urged him to write anything else instead, to Virginia Woolf, who insisted that if one wants to like the poem, "the first essential is, of course, not to read" it. For more than four centuries critics have sought to counter this strain of readerly resistance, but rather than trying to remedy the frustrations and failures of Spenser's readers, Catherine Nicholson cherishes them as a sensitive barometer of shifts in the culture of reading itself. Indeed, tracking the poem's mixed fortunes in the hands of its bored, baffled, outraged, intoxicated, obsessive, and exhausted readers turns out to be an excellent way of rethinking the past and future prospects of literary study. By examining the responses of readers from Queen Elizabeth and the keepers of Renaissance commonplace books to nineteenth-century undergraduates, Victorian children, and modern scholars, this book offers a compelling new interpretation of the poem and an important new perspective on what it means to read, or not to read, a work of literature.

Download or read book Reading Early Modern Women s Writing written by Paul Salzman and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-11-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the first comprehensive account of writing by women from the mid sixteenth century through to 1700. At the same time, it traces the way a representative sample of that writing was published, circulated in manuscript, read, anthologised, reprinted, and discussed from the time it was produced through to the present day. Salzman's study covers an enormous range of women from all areas of early modern society, and it covers examples of the many and varied genres produced by these women, from plays to prophecies, diaries to poems, autobiographies to philosophy. As well as introducing readers to the wealth of material produced by women in the early modern period, this book examines changing responses to what was written, tracing a history of reception and transmission that amounts to a cultural history of changing taste.
Download or read book Self Commentary in Early Modern European Literature 1400 1700 written by Francesco Venturi and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates the various ways in which writers comment on, present, and defend their own works, and at the same time themselves, across early modern Europe. A multiplicity of self-commenting modes, ranging from annotations to explicatory prose to prefaces to separate critical texts and exemplifying a variety of literary genres, are subjected to analysis. Self-commentaries are more than just an external apparatus: they direct and control reception of the primary text, thus affecting notions of authorship and readership. With the writer understood as a potentially very influential and often tendentious interpreter of their own work, the essays in this collection offer new perspectives on pre-modern and modern forms of critical self-consciousness, self-representation, and self-validation. Contributors are Harriet Archer, Gilles Bertheau, Carlo Caruso, Jeroen De Keyser, Russell Ganim, Joseph Harris, Ian Johnson, Richard Maber, Martin McLaughlin, John O’Brien, Magdalena Ożarska, Federica Pich, Brian Richardson, Els Stronks, and Colin Thompson.
