To address that question, this chapter compares a specific poetic form, the quatrain, with philosophical dialogues by Marsilio Ficino, Tullia d’Aragona, and Leone Ebreo. “The Ecstasy” shares with these dialogues in imagining love as a phenomenon of non-sovereignty, of giving up the wish for mastery over the self and control over the beloved, with a key difference residing in how non-sovereignty comes about. For Ficino, Tullia, and Leone, love assumes the form of what Bataille would call a project: an undertaking with an aim over which lovers have at least some control—in this case, a project of self-transformation by which lovers become more perfect. “The Ecstasy” sometimes also makes love into a project, but in other places, the poem’s quatrains turn love from a project into an experience: (again, in Bataille’s terms) an aimless encounter in which lover and beloved become entangled in incomplete yet excruciating ways, ways that forge a distinctly poetic non-sovereign love.","PeriodicalId":22551,"journal":{"name":"The Form of Love","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80915566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kuzner","doi":"10.5422/fordham/9780823294503.003.0003","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5422/fordham/9780823294503.003.0003","url":null,"abstract":"This chapter discusses poetic obscurity in Katherine Philips’s “Friendship’s Mysterys.” Jeremy Taylor, the divine and friend of Philips, writes of how friendship must be useful and must help friends compensate for their shortfalls in being self-sufficient, sovereign over themselves and their affairs. In “Friendship’s Mysterys,” though, love becomes its own religion, sovereign unto itself, taking on a particular kind of “use” that to Taylor would be both heretical and useless: use that—obscurely and yet strikingly—becomes masochistic. “Friendship’s Mysterys” might even be said to combine competing forms of masochism: one, like that described by Michel Foucault, which emphasizes the shifting of control from one party to the other, and a second, like that described by Leo Bersani, which involves giving up control altogether. Such a multifaceted masochism can live only within the “useless” realm of obscure verse: verse filled with vague images, mysterious phrases and maneuverings, and action that seems to take place almost scenelessly. The chapter’s conclusion compares Philips’s vision of love with an antagonist named in Taylor’s discourse and often compared with the poet: Plato. While Plato tries to synthesize tensions of love, Philips maintains them, contenting herself with friendship’s mysteries.","PeriodicalId":22551,"journal":{"name":"The Form of Love","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83461778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
