His cognitively inflected approach to communication resonates with the account of utterance interpretation offered by relevance theory in the field of pragmatics. Relevance theory elucidates patterns across Montaigne’s discussions of apparently disparate communicative domains in the Essais. This article demonstrates the point by examining his portrayals of exchanges in diplomacy and jurisprudence, and the account he offers of his own authorial communication, with reference to underspecification, relevance theory’s notion that utterances provide only sparse evidence of the speaker’s intended meaning.","PeriodicalId":45399,"journal":{"name":"MODERN LANGUAGE REVIEW","volume":"118 1","pages":"328 - 348"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41679458","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even a chapter as illuminating and rigorous as de Miguel’s second chapter—a typology of what he calls the metacanción (metasong)—centres exclusively on the various ways this is done through lyrics—songs about songwriting, intertextual references—and does not discuss how this might also be achieved by other means. e question of musical performance is one which those of us working in language disciplines ought to embrace for a fuller comprehension of song, ideally in collaboration with those approaching popular music from other disciplinary perspectives, most obviously music studies and musicology. Such an approach might be used, for example, to challenge the foundations of this volume on the canción de autor and its characteristic literary quality in order to nuance some of its arguments. Meta-love songs abound in genres other than the canción de autor. Take at’s ‘A Million Love Songs’ quickly comes to mind, as does one of my guilty pleasures: Chas and Dave’s ‘If I Could Write a Love Song’. is powerful blend of lyrical and musical analysis is displayed to brilliant effect in the book in San José Lera’s exhaustive comparison of Lorca’s ‘Pequeño vals vienés’ and Leonard Cohen’s adaptation ‘Take is Waltz’. By considering features such as the rhythm and cadences of Lorca’s verse and Cohen’s melody, as well as the sonic quality of and generic references in the latter, San José Lera explores the implications of the reference to both literature and music in the title of the book. Principally on account of this chapter, Nogales and San José Lera’s book is a step in the right direction.","PeriodicalId":45399,"journal":{"name":"MODERN LANGUAGE REVIEW","volume":"118 1","pages":"410 - 411"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45688364","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Feeding Fascism: The Politics of Women’s Food Work by Diana Garvin (review)","authors":"Karima Moyer-Nocchi","doi":"10.1353/mlr.2023.a901141","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/mlr.2023.a901141","url":null,"abstract":"dexes), each encounter envisaged the interpretation of a cluster of cantos, bringing the discussion outside the conventional boundaries of a canto-by-canto reading. In looking at the ‘duets’ gathered in the first two volumes, the reader will appreciate the greater breadth granted to scholars navigating Dante’s Inferno. is is particularly evident not only in the case of cantos that present a strong continuity, for instance Inferno  and  (read by Catherine M. Keen), or Inferno  and  (read by Ambrogio Camozzi Pistoja), but also when approaching cantos that apparently look more isolated, such as Inferno  and  (read by Franziska Meier). In its own way, each lectura offers key reflections on both established and recent critical approaches, discusses and sometimes offers a new perspective on hermeneutical cruces, while also setting new research trajectories. For instance, in her reading of Inferno  Terzoli cautiously suggests reading ll. – and – as uttered not by Francesca but by Paolo, further developing a view that Guglielmo Gorni supported in  and opposing the mainstream interpretation that considers Francesca the only narrative voice of one of the most famous episodes of Western literature (G. Giorni, ‘Francesca e Paolo: la voce di lui’, Intersezioni,  (), –). Another important element of Voci sull’‘Inferno’ is the presence of opening chapters that contextualize the Inferno within Dante’s biography and other works, thus providing a broader view on the place it holds within his intellectual and poetic journey. While the three essays opening the first volume (by Lino Pertile, Paolo Pellegrini, and Michelangelo Zaccarello respectively) concern the Inferno’s reception, popularity, composition, and material transmission, those in the second volume discuss its relation with Vita nuova, Convivio, and De vulgari eloquentia by examining central topics in Dante’s œuvre and scholarship, namely his experience and poetry of love (Donato Pirovano), the relation between knowledge, faith, grace, and salvation (Paola Nasti), as well as the nexus between his cartographic impetus, his linguistic and political concerns, and his status of exile (eodore J. Cachey, Jr). By providing the reader with a prolific and comprehensive view on the first cantica of the Commedia, Voci sull’‘Inferno’ di Dante is a remarkable, polyphonic instrument for study, research, and teaching. For this reason, among the countless initiatives that marked the th anniversary of Dante’s death, this collection will certainly survive as a rich contribution to Dante Studies.","PeriodicalId":45399,"journal":{"name":"MODERN LANGUAGE REVIEW","volume":"118 1","pages":"396 - 398"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43282337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
