Book Synopsis Ovid in the Vernacular by : Marta Balzi
Download or read book Ovid in the Vernacular written by Marta Balzi and published by Medium Aevum Monographs / Ssmll. This book was released on 2021-09-24 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Middle and Early Modern Ages, translations of Ovid's Metamorphoses in the vernacular played a pivotal role in its transmission to Europe's emerging cultures. These vernacular translations, along with the glosses, commentaries, and illustrations that frequently accompanied them, are the subject of this volume. Ovid in the Vernacular covers eight linguistic areas (English, Spanish, Catalan, French, German, Italian, Dutch, and Greek) and offers new insights into how each of these appropriated and transformed the Latin poem through words and images. At the same time, it looks beyond national and linguistic borders, retracing the circulation of textual and non-textual elements of the vernacular Ovid across Europe, and connecting different literary traditions. This volume overcomes the perceived division between the Middle and Early Modern Ages as it charts both continuities and discontinuities between the two, addressing the influence of manuscript culture and print culture on the re-fashioning of Ovid. It thereby exposes the full range and power of the transformations to which Ovid's Metamorphoses lent itself, and how these allowed the work to become a constitutive part of the literary and artistic life of Western Europe.

This book was released on 2021-07 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Middle and Early Modern Ages, translations of Ovid's Metamorphoses in the vernacular played a pivotal role in the process of the transmission of this poem to the emerging European cultures. These vernacular translations, together with the glosses, commentaries, and illustrations that frequently accompanied them, are the object of study of this collective volume. Ovid in the Vernacular covers eight linguistic areas (English, Spanish, Catalan, French, German, Italian, Dutch, and Greek) and offers new insights about the way in which each of these emerging vernacular cultures appropriated and transformed this Latin poem through words and images. At the same time, this book looks beyond national and linguistic borders and retraces the circulation of textual and non-textual elements of the vernacular Ovid across Europe, connecting different literary traditions. This volume overcomes the perceived division between Middle and Early Modern Ages, and charts continuities and discontinuities between these two historical periods, addressing the influence of manuscript culture and print culture on the re-fashioning of Ovid. The scope of this publication is to bear witness to the transformative ability of Ovid's Metamorphoses and unveil how the transformations to which this poem lent itself allowed this work to become a constitutive part of the literary and artistic life of Western Europe. Gemma Pellissa Prades is a postdoctoral researcher in the Departament de Filologia Catalana i Lingüística General at the Universitat de Barcelona. Marta Balzi has recently completed her PhD at the University of Bristol.
Download or read book Ovid's Metamorphoses written by Ovid and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This landmark translation of Ovid was acclaimed by Ezra Pound as "the most beautiful book in the language (my opinion and I suspect it was Shakespeare's)". Ovid's deliciously witty and poignant epic starts with the creation of the world and brings together a series of ingeniously linked myths and legends in which men and women are transformed -- often by love -- into flowers, trees, stones, and stars. Golding's robustly vernacular version was the first major English translation and decisively influenced Shakespeare, Spenser, and the character of English Renaissance writing.

Book Synopsis Ovid and the Cultural Politics of Translation in Early Modern England by : Liz Oakley-Brown
Download or read book Ovid and the Cultural Politics of Translation in Early Modern England written by Liz Oakley-Brown and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ovid and the Cultural Politics of Early Modern England, Liz Oakley-Brown considers English versions of the Metamorphoses - a poem concerned with translation and transformation on a multiplicity of levels - as important sites of social and historical difference from the fifteenth to the early eighteenth centuries. Through the exploration of a range of canonical and marginal texts, from Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus to women's embroideries of Ovidian myths, Oakley-Brown argues that translation is central to the construction of national and gendered identities.

Book Synopsis Ovidian Bibliofictions and the Tudor Book by : Lindsay Ann Reid
Download or read book Ovidian Bibliofictions and the Tudor Book written by Lindsay Ann Reid and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ovidian Bibliofictions and the Tudor Book examines the historical and the fictionalized reception of Ovid’s poetry in the literature and books of Tudor England. It does so through the study of a particular set of Ovidian narratives-namely, those concerning the protean heroines of the Heroides and Metamorphoses. In the late medieval and Renaissance eras, Ovid’s poetry stimulated the vernacular imaginations of authors ranging from Geoffrey Chaucer and John Gower to Isabella Whitney, William Shakespeare, and Michael Drayton. Ovid’s English protégés replicated and expanded upon the Roman poet’s distinctive and frequently remarked ’bookishness’ in their own adaptations of his works. Focusing on the postclassical discourses that Ovid’s poetry stimulated, Ovidian Bibliofictions and the Tudor Book engages with vibrant current debates about the book as material object as it explores the Ovidian-inspired mythologies and bibliographical aetiologies that informed the sixteenth-century creation, reproduction, and representation of books. Further, author Lindsay Ann Reid’s discussions of Ovidianism provide alternative models for thinking about the dynamics of reception, adaptation, and imitatio. While there is a sizeable body of published work on Ovid and Chaucer as well as on the ubiquitous Ovidianism of the 1590s, there has been comparatively little scholarship on Ovid’s reception between these two eras. Ovidian Bibliofictions and the Tudor Book begins to fill this gap between the ages of Chaucer and Shakespeare by dedicating attention to the literature of the early Tudor era. In so doing, this book also contributes to current discussions surrounding medieval/Renaissance periodization.
