In enacting his project, Bacon recognized and sought to balance the tensions between flattering fictions and empiricism and, as a way of mediating between them, imagination and sensory experience. Bacon's late-career poetics attempts to control narrative and desire by restraining the imagination and making language and matter indistinguishable to the point that his written natural history \"is used as the primary matter of philosophy, and the basic stuff and raw material of true induction.\" The resulting elision of thought, writing, and matter compels him to abandon the Advancement's myth of Orpheus taming the beasts and humanist tropes like the Erasmian treasure house of speech to describe his Great Instauration's impacts on civilization. Bacon's unrealized ideal is to free the natural philosopher to move seamlessly from written natural history to action without imaginative mediation. However, he cannot abandon fiction as a means of mythologizing his project for readers even as he seeks to excise all vestiges of the imagination from his poetics of natural history.","PeriodicalId":45500,"journal":{"name":"STUDIES IN PHILOLOGY","volume":"120 1","pages":"141 - 171"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43664410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Levy","doi":"10.1353/sip.2023.0002","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/sip.2023.0002","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:Though usually construed in terms of defective or recalcitrant agency (not doing what should be done), Hamlet's delay can be freshly illumined by considering it in terms of patiency: the liability to be affected in various ways. Like the Ghost, Hamlet's patiency involves a process of purgation—not of sin, as with the Ghost, but of a way of thinking. The purgative process is challenged by the penetrative violence of a countervailing process—the speech of others, whose words, entering the ears of auditors like the poison poured into the ear of the sleeping King, profoundly influence and disrupt their thoughts. The purgation of Hamlet involves a multistage development whereby new cognitive characteristics displace or coexist alongside old ones, in one of the most subtle, elusive, and consequential mental evolutions depicted in drama. Highlights of this essay's explication include (a) the motif of the secondary ghost, (b) the striking interrelationships between the scene in Ophelia's closet and the narrated scene aboard the ship bound for England, (c) the removal of the arras that the revenge morality hangs between act and consequence, and (d) the recasting of the notion of agency such that inaction, not action, facilitates the achievement of the agent's ends.","PeriodicalId":45500,"journal":{"name":"STUDIES IN PHILOLOGY","volume":"120 1","pages":"103 - 70"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46368131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gross","doi":"10.1353/sip.2022.0014","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/sip.2022.0014","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:It has long been acknowledged that Edmund Spenser's Faerie Queene is indebted to the book of Revelation. What has not been recognized, however, is that one of the forms in which Spenser most likely encountered Revelation was illuminated Apocalypse manuscripts created in England in the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries. These manuscripts hold many surprising correspondences with book 1 of The Faerie Queene: the translation of Revelation into vernacular poetry; the depiction of red-cross knights fighting dragons alongside wimpled ladies offering encouragement; the recasting of Revelation as romance adventure or hagiography; the association of Apocalyptic events with the English monarchy; and a moralized reading of Revelation that interprets this scriptural book less as historical prophecy and more as a guide for the pious Christian navigating the snares of this world. This essay examines these resonances between the medieval Apocalypses and The Faerie Queene, identifying nine manuscripts that were plausibly accessible to Spenser prior to his departure for Ireland in 1580. Reminding ourselves of the continued use of these medieval books both enriches our understanding of Spenser's aims and serves as a case study in the medievalism of early modern England.","PeriodicalId":45500,"journal":{"name":"STUDIES IN PHILOLOGY","volume":"119 1","pages":"654 - 704"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42872147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present essay provides a framework for analyzing Old English religious themes—distinguishing them from the topoi traced by source studies—and then applies this to a theme I call \"The Open Heavens.\" This theme occurs a total of seven times in four Old English poems. Scholarship has traditionally linked three of these texts—Andreas, Christ and Satan, and Guthlac A—with the Cynewulf group. I argue that the formulas and themes shared by the Cynewulfian poems witness a common poetic sociolect, a tradition within the tradition. Cynewulf is the most important author working within this subtradition, but, as this study of \"The Open Heavens\" theme illustrates, he did not originate it. While Cynewulf's works show a familiarity with the theme, they do not contain a clear-cut instance of it; thus, Andreas, Christ and Satan, and Guthlac A cannot have derived \"The Open Heavens\" from him. Other Christian themes await discovery, and, like \"The Open Heavens,\" these have much to tell us about the development of the Old English poetic tradition.","PeriodicalId":45500,"journal":{"name":"STUDIES IN PHILOLOGY","volume":"119 1","pages":"555 - 578"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43168069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
