Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter iii lyric themes and lyrical quality in the miscellanies The Elizabethan lyric first presented itself to the public in the popular collections called Miscellanies. The first printed collection of this kind, Tottel's Miscellany. 1557. is usually reckoned the startingpoint of the great lyric era. But both the themes of the songs and the mode of publishing had their roots deep-set in the earlier literature. The habit l of making manuscript collections of favorite songs for convenience in singing was very common during the early part of the Tudor period, and perhaps earlier. Four or five examples are preserved, and show clearly the connection between the old lyric and the new.1 The largest collection is particularly valuable because it contains several pieces by Henry viii. On account of its importance it will be considered first. Since the birth of Prince Henry, in 1511, is 1 Liedersammlungen der xvi Jahrhunderte, besonders aus der Zeit Heinrech's viii, Fliigel, Anglia, xii. p. 225. A few of the songs, with facsimiles of the music, can be found in an article by Wm. Chappell in Archseologia, xli. pt. ii. p. 371. mentioned in one of the songs, the manuscript is assigned to the year immediately after. It should be remembered that this collection belonged to a gentleman of rank, perhaps to the king, and it reflects his tastes, not those of the average man. Some of the songs are signed; 1 the others may be old compositions, or the work of contemporary writers; one evidently is a version of a song by Sir Thomas Wyatt.2 Though the familiar themes of the Middle English lyric are represented, they show a double change, due to the effect

Download or read book The Lyric Poem written by Marion Thain and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a study of lyric poetry, in English, from the early modern period to the present, this book explores one of the most ancient and significant art forms in Western culture as it emerges in its various modern incarnations. Combining a much-needed historicisation of the concept of lyric with an aesthetic and formal focus, this collaboration of period-specialists offers a new cross-historical approach. Through eleven chapters, spanning more than four centuries, the book provides readers with both a genealogical framework for the understanding of lyric poetry within any particular period, and a necessary context for more general discussion of the nature of genre.
Book Synopsis The Matter of Song in Early Modern England by : Katherine R. Larson
Download or read book The Matter of Song in Early Modern England written by Katherine R. Larson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the variety and richness of the sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English 'songscape', it might seem unsurprising to suggest that early modern song needs to be considered as sung. When a reader encounters a song in a sonnet sequence, a romance, and even a masque or a play, however, the tendency is to engage with it as poem rather than as musical performance. Opening up the notion of song from a performance-based perspective The Matter of Song in Early Modern England considers the implications of reading song not simply as lyric text but as an embodied and gendered musical practice. Animating the traces of song preserved in physiological and philosophical commentaries, singing handbooks, poetic treatises, and literary texts ranging from Mary Sidney Herbert's Psalmes to John Milton's Comus, the book confronts song's ephemerality, its lexical and sonic capriciousness, and its airy substance. These features can resist critical analysis but were vital to song's affective workings in the early modern period. The volume foregrounds the need to attend much more closely to the embodied and musical dimensions of literary production and circulation in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England. It also makes an important and timely contribution to our understanding of women's engagement with song as writers and as performers. A companion recording of fourteen songs featuring Larson (soprano) and Lucas Harris (lute) brings the project's innovative methodology and central case studies to life.
Book Synopsis Poetry and Music in Seventeenth-Century England by : Diane Kelsey McColley
Download or read book Poetry and Music in Seventeenth-Century England written by Diane Kelsey McColley and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-12-11 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the relationship between the poetic language of Donne, Herbert, Milton and other British poets, and the choral music and part-songs of composers including Tallis, Byrd, Gibbons, Weelkes and Tomkins. The seventeenth century was the time in English literary history when music was most consciously linked to words, and when the mingling of Renaissance and 'new' philosophy opened new discovery routes for the interpretation of art. McColley offers close readings of poems and the musical settings of analogous texts, and discusses the philosophy, performance, and disputed political and ecclesiastical implications of polyphony. She also enters into the discourse about the nature of language, relating poets' use of language and composers' use of music to larger questions concerning the arts, politics and theology.
