The Stella Poems
Author: Duane Locke
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780999327937
Category : American poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 83
Book Description
Poetry. Still writing well beyond his 96th year, Duane Locke's most recent collection, THE STELLA POEMS, invites the reader to accompany him through a thoughtful though sad journey across the landscape of our current trends and the reactions these trends have on our relationships not only with other human beings but with the wide-open natural world as well. As always, there is an impeccable imagery when our poet guides us through this natural world and we see for the first time what was right in front of us had we only opened our eyes. Which is also why we can always expect to be amazed. Though a twist on Sir Philip Sydney's Astrophel & Stella, Locke's ability to make contemporary the kind of love it takes to exist in this world is, as usual, exceptional.

Sir Philip Sidney and the Circulation of Manuscripts, 1558-1640
Author: H. R. Woudhuysen
Publisher: Clarendon Press
ISBN: 0191591025
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 541
Book Description
This is the first modern study of the production and circulation of manuscripts during the English Renaissance. H.R. Woudhuysen examines the relationship between manuscript and print, looks at people who lived by their pens, and surveys authorial and scribal manuscripts, paying particular attention to the copying of verse, plays, and scholarly works by hand. It investigates the professional production of manuscripts for sale by scribes such as Ralph Crane and Richard Robinson. The second part of the book examines Sir Philip Sydney's works in the context of Woudhuysen's research, discussing all Sidney's important manuscripts, and seeking to assess his part in the circulation of his works and his role in the promotion of a scribal culture. A detailed examination of the manuscripts and early prints of his poems, his Arcadias, and of Astrophil and Stella shed new light on their composition, evolution, and dissemination, as well as on Sidney's friends and admirers.

Fair Ladies
Author: Katherine J. Roberts
Publisher: Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
During his brief literary career, Sir Philip Sidney created three major works, The Old Arcadia, Astrophil and Stella, and The New Arcadia, in whichthe female characters became progressively stronger and more completely developed. A close examination of his major female characters - Gynecia, Stella, Cecropia, Philoclea, and Pamela - along with a study of commonplace Renaissance concepts about women, reveals that Sidney's female characters deviate considerably from the conventions of his time. Sidney may well have been influenced by the women in his family, his queen, and his religion in his creation of female characters who broke the boundaries of stereotypes.
