This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated.1825 Excerpt: ... " He fulmined, thundered, and commingled Greece." This noble passage, as the commentators have observed, is the origin of the one in Milton where the Greek orators are spoken of: --Paradise Reg. Book 4. v. 267. " Thence to the famous orators repair, " Those ancient, whose resistless eloquence " Wielded at will that fierce democratic, " Shook the arsenal, and thundered over Greece." Aristophanes is more lively and in action: Milton's line was the awefulness of the echo. Note 23, page 7. Sweet in his gravity, Fierce in his suavity. The original is stronger and graver: " Con amabile fierezza, " Con terribile dolcezza: " But it seemed to me, that it would be nothing the worse in a mock-heroic poem for losing a little of it's grandeur. These compliments to his friends are apt to make the author lose sight of the place where he introduces them. He quotes the torva voluptas frontis of Claudian, " the stern voluptuousness of look;"--Aristotle--'hsv pita. 0o -goTiTo--" a sweetness with terror;"--and Cicero, who says that an orator ought to have suavitatem austeram et solidam, non dulcem atque decoctam, " a suavity austere and with a body to it, not cloying and over-cooked." This decoctam, which is a bold word for Cicero, resembles the epithet mulled, which Shakspeare applies to peace. (Coriolanus--Act 4. Scene the 5th.) " Seeing his face so lovely stern, and coy," is a line in Spencer.--See Milton Parad. Lost, Book 4. v. 844. " So spake the Cherub; and his grave rebuke, " Severe in youthful beauty, added grace " Invincible."--Otway somewhere has " Lovelily dreadful." Note 24, page 7. Bared in my own proper presence to talk Of that stuff of Aversa, half acid and chalk. I have taken the liberty of thus expressing the roughness implied by the name of this wine, ...

Self-Commentary in Early Modern European Literature, 1400–1700
Author: Francesco Venturi
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004396594
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 445
Book Description
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.
