Book Sir Thomas Wyatt and the Rhetoric of Rewriting

Download or read book Sir Thomas Wyatt and the Rhetoric of Rewriting written by Chris Stamatakis and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chris Stamatakis reappraises Sir Thomas Wyatt (c.1504-1542) as a poetic innovator from the literary avant-garde of early Tudor England. He discusses Wyatt's reflections on the writing process, and his awareness of how words can be turned in new directions - that is, rewritten, amended, transformed, manipulated, even performed - over the course of a text's production, transmission, and reception. Where previous studies have read Wyatt's poetry from a largely biographical standpoint, this book examines the reading practices of his Tudor audiences and editors, and it considers the different types of textuality shown by the manuscript collections that contain his verse. By setting Wyatt's writings in the context of sixteenth-century theories of language and literary practice, and by drawing on early Tudor educational, rhetorical, and courtierly handbooks, Stamatakis examines the rhetoric of rewriting that colours Wyatt's texts. Repeatedly, his writings invite readers to 'turn' or perform the word-to draw out something that lies inert within it. These habits of rewriting and verbal performance often serve to sustain an intimate dialogue between writers and readers in this literary culture. The book pays particular attention to the fascinating materiality of Wyatt's texts: the margins around, and the interlinear spaces within, his poems are regularly filled with new text-handwritten scrawls that are supplied by Wyatt himself or by his copyists, editors and readers. Chapters are devoted to the types of rewriting found in each of Wyatt's main genres: Plutarchian essays; forensic apologias; psalm paraphrases; letters and verse epistles, and lyrics or 'balets'. Two appendices offer further detail about patterns of manuscript transmission and the copying of Wyatt's poems. Sir Thomas Wyatt and the Rhetoric of Rewriting argues that reading often shaded into writing (and rewriting) in the early sixteenth century, and it shows how acts of apparent copying often transformed texts inventively and imaginatively.

Book Court Politics  Culture and Literature in Scotland and England  1500 1540

Download or read book Court Politics Culture and Literature in Scotland and England 1500 1540 written by Jon Robinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this study is court literature in early sixteenth-century England and Scotland. The author examines courtly poetry and drama in the context of a complex system of entertainment, education, self-fashioning, dissimulation, propaganda and patronage. He places selected works under close critical scrutiny to explore the symbiotic relationship that existed between court literature and important socio-political, economic and national contexts of the period 1500 to 1540. The first two chapters discuss the pervasive influence of patronage upon court literature through an analysis of the panegyric verse that surrounded the coronation of Henry VIII. The rhetorical strategies adopted by courtiers within their literary works, however, differed, depending on whether the writer was, at the time of writing the verse or drama, excluded or included from the environs of the court. The different, often elaborate rhetorical strategies are, through close readings of selected verse, delineated and discussed in chapter three on David Lyndsay and chapter four on Thomas Wyatt and Thomas Elyot.

Book The Complete Poems

  • Author : R. Rebholz
  • Publisher : Penguin UK
  • Release : 2015-07-30
  • ISBN : 0141969164
  • Pages : 560 pages

Download or read book The Complete Poems written by R. Rebholz and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2015-07-30 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a diplomat in Renaissance Europe, and a luminary at the court of Henry VII, Sir Thomas Wyatt wrote in an incestuous world where everyone was uneasily subject to the royal whims and rages. Wyatt had himself survived two imprisonments in the Tower as well as a love affair with Anne Boleyn, and his poetry - that of an extraordinarily sophisticated, passionate and vulnerable man - reflects these experiences, making disguised reference to current political events. Above all, though, Wyatt is known for his love poetry, which often dramatizes incidents and remembered conversations with his beloved, with an ear acutely sensitive to patterns of rhythm and colloquial speech. Conveying the actuality of betrayal or absence, and the intense pressure of his longing for a love that could be trusted, these are some of the most haunting poems in the English language.

Book The Anchor Anthology of Sixteenth century Verse

Download or read book The Anchor Anthology of Sixteenth century Verse written by Richard Standish Sylvester and published by Anchor Books. This book was released on 1974 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This anthology contains selections from the work of twenty-five of the major poets of the sixteenth century. Employing the original, rather than "normalized" texts, the volume includes complete, non-excerpted poems by John Skelton, Philip Sidney, Christopher Marlowe. Edmund Spenser, Thomas Campion, Thomas More, George Gascoigne, Thomas Wyatt, the Earl of Surrey, Thomas Sackville, Walter Raliegh, Michael Drayton, and others. The selections, including "The Steele Glas," "Amoretti," "Epithalamion," "Prothalamion," "Astrophil and Stella," and "Hero and Leander," represent both major poems and major poets of the period, with the fullest possible representation given to those individuals who loomed the largest in the era. In his introduction, Professor Sylvester examines the evolution of English poetry through the century, tracing the development of the early Tudor poets through the eloquence of Surrey, the experimentation of Sackville and Gascoigne, and the maturity and sophistication of the works of Spenser and Sidney. This collection, when used with a volume of Shakespeare's sonnets, is the basic text for the major poetry of the sixteenth century. The texts in the volume are thoroughly annotated, and the work of each poet is supplemented by a biography, bibliography, and source notes." -Publisher.

Most entries are accompanied by useful notes providing information on authors, works, translators, and how the translations were received. Among the works by over 1,500 authors represented in this volume are hundreds of editions by Italy's most translated authors - Dante Alighieri, [Niccoláo] Machiavelli, and [Giovanni] Boccaccio - and other hundreds which represent the author's only English translation. A significant number of entries describe works originally published in Latin. Together with Healey's Twentieth-Century Italian Literature in English Translation, this volume makes comprehensive information on translations accessible for schools, libraries, and those interested in comparative literature."--Pub. desc.
