Описание: The Appendix Tibulliana has often been neglected in scholarship on elegy of the Augustan period. This literary commentary argues that the poems it contains not only merit serious study for their own sake, but that their destabilization of some of the key norms of the genre could prompt a broader reassessment of our understanding of elegy.

Автор: Maximianus The Etruscan Название: Elegies of maximianus ISBN: 0812249798 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780812249798 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 58480.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Not much can be known about the life of Maximianus, who has been called "the last of the Roman poets," beyond what can be inferred from his poetry. He was most likely a native of Tuscany, probably lived until the middle of the sixth century, and, at an advanced age, went as a diplomat to the emperor's court at Constantinople. A. M. Juster has translated the complete elegies of Maximianus faithfully but not literally, resulting in texts that work beautifully as poetry in English. Replicating the feel of the original Latin verse, he alternates iambic hexameter and pentameter in couplets and imitates Maximianus's pronounced internal rhyme, alliteration, and assonance. The first elegy is the longest and establishes the voice of the speaker: a querulous old man, full of the indignities of aging, which he contrasts with the vigor and prestige he enjoyed in his youth. The second elegy similarly focuses on the contrast between past happiness and present misery but, this time, for the specific experience of a long-term relationship. The third through fifth elegies depict episodes from the poet's amatory career at different stages of his life, from inexperienced youth to impotent old man. The last poem concludes with a desire for the release of death and, together with the first, form a coherent frame for the collection. This comprehensive volume includes an introduction by renowned classicist Michael Roberts, a translation of the elegies with the Latin text on facing pages, the first English translation of an additional six poems attributed to Maximianus, an appendix of Latin and Middle English imitative verse that illustrates Maximianus's long reception in the Middle Ages, several related texts, and the first commentary in English on the poems since 1900. The imminence of death and the sadness of growing old that form the principal themes of the elegies signal not only the end of pagan culture and its joy in living but also the turn from a classical to a medieval sensibility in Late Antiquity.

Описание: Jahan Khatun was a fourteenth-century Persian princess who lived through tumultuous political upheavals: her father was murdered when she was a teenager, eleven years later her familys dynasty was overthrown and all her male relatives were killed, and once her family had lost all their political power she suffered imprisonment and exile. Despite all this her poems give us a charming portrait of someone eagerly grasping for whatever pleasures she could salvage from life. Only one thing seems to have defeated her apparently indomitable spirit, the death of her infant daughter Soltan Bakht. She mentions her familys and her own political setbacks in her poems, but not often and only briefly; for her daughter though she wrote twenty three heartfelt, despairing elegies, and it is clear that the death of her young child was the one disaster in her life that she found impossible to deal with. This little book contains verse translations of all twenty three elegies, rendered into English for the first time.

Unmade Friend is flawless, a rare occasion when each and every poem belongs. Reading it makes me happy: poetry really DOES exist. Unmade Friend is the best book I've read in quite some time.
-Larry Moffi, Settlement House Books
"Sign post with no sign. Thank you for giving me no direction." These are the opening words to this incredible collection of poems that speak directly to adventure and to wilderness. I found, however, that the poems in Unmade Friends, Elegies, resonated with me on a deeper level as well. The wild places of the world give so much to those willing to explore them but they also take so much. It's a very fine line to navigate. In reading Waldor's poems, I found he was able to put into words the joy, beauty, pain, love, loss, fear and thrill of a life lived beyond the end of the trail.
-Hilaree Nelson, Captain of Global Athlete Team, North Face
Less is more is an adage that helps us navigate a complex world. With poetry less is more, as in the words composed create a place, a story and emotion. Peter's poetry gives us the chance to understand life in its simplest and purest form.

Автор: Vasileios Pappas Название: Maximianus` ‘Elegies`: Love Elegy Grew Old ISBN: 3110770377 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783110770377 Издательство: Walter de Gruyter Рейтинг: Цена: 142510.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
This book is the first study to focus on a metaliterary interpretation of Maximianus’ Elegies, and aims to fill a major gap in international literature concerning the thoughts of the last love elegist on the evolution and renovation of the genre of love elegy during Late Antiquity.
The book includes all known subjects of Maximianus’ poetry (e.g., the division of his work into six elegies, its attribution to Cornelius Gallus by Pomponius Gauricus in 1502, its reception in recent years, the intellectual milieu of the Ostrogothic Italy, the historical contextualization of his poetry, the Appendix Maximiani, the impact of the Augustan love elegy (and especially Ovid’s) upon it, etc.), in order to offer a more complete picture of it. However, the content of the book is predominantly prototype, as it examines subjects that have not previously been discussed in the past. These include: a) The generic interaction between the ‘host’ genre of love elegy, and several ‘guest’ genres (e.g., Roman comedy, epic, pastoral); b) The hidden metapoetic discourse regarding the genre of love elegy itself.
The book is intended for scholars or students working on or interested in Roman love elegy and its generic evolution in Late Antiquity.
