Book excerpt: Italian Literature before 1900 in English Translation provides the most complete record possible of texts from the early periods that have been translated into English, and published between 1929 and 2008. It lists works from all genres and subjects, and includes translations wherever they have appeared across the globe. In this annotated bibliography, Robin Healey covers over 5,200 distinct editions of pre-1900 Italian writings. Most entries are accompanied by useful notes providing information on authors, works, translators, and how the translations were received. Among the works by over 1,500 authors represented in this volume are hundreds of editions by Italy's most translated authors – Dante Alighieri, Machiavelli, and Boccaccio – and other hundreds which represent the author's only English translation. A significant number of entries describe works originally published in Latin. Together with Healey's Twentieth-Century Italian Literature in English Translation, this volume makes comprehensive information on translations accessible for schools, libraries, and those interested in comparative literature.
Book Synopsis The Memoirs of John Addington Symonds by : Amber K. Regis
Download or read book The Memoirs of John Addington Symonds written by Amber K. Regis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition is the first to reproduce John Addington Symonds's Memoirs in its entirety. It offers a panoramic view of middle-class Victorian life, shedding light upon sexual cultures and life histories too often hidden from history. Symonds (1840-93) began writing his Memoirs in 1889. It was, he confessed, 'a foolish thing to do.' Symonds was a respected man of letters, an historian, translator, essayist and poet; he was also married with children. But rather than unfold a simple tale of public and private achievement, the Memoirs record his struggle to reconcile his homosexuality with these professional and familial identities. His autobiography offers a confessional account of relationships beyond the accepted bounds of nineteenth-century social mores, presenting an alternative case study that contests the legal and medical authorities that would label his desires a crime or disease. Yet being so eloquent on matters of heterodox sexuality, the Memoirs were suppressed. The manuscript survives because Symonds recognised its import, however 'foolish': he instructed his literary executor to preserve the text, a duty ultimately discharged by placing the manuscript under embargo in the care of the London Library.

Book Synopsis The Passions of John Addington Symonds by : Shane Butler
Download or read book The Passions of John Addington Symonds written by Shane Butler and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-02-16 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Addington Symonds (Bristol 1840 - Rome 1893) was one of Victorian Britain's most prolific authors, with works that included poems, translations, travel essays, and scholarly studies on topics ranging from classical literature to the Renaissance to the poetry of his contemporaries. Today,however, he is usually remembered for his long unpublished Memoirs, a major early monument of queer life-writing, and for two privately printed, secretly circulated essays, one of which includes the earliest printed appearance in English of the word homosexual. This new word, first coined in German,has long provided a useful milestone for historians of sexuality charting the emergence not only of new typologies but of whole new regimes of knowledge. But what of the rest of Symonds's vast body of work? This book returns to Symonds, not as the origin of a now familiar history, but as a far morecomplex thinker, with an ambitious vision of the queerness of the world itself--and of what it means to live in it.This is the first monograph, other than biographies and editions, devoted entirely to Symonds and the first critical analysis to embrace a representative selection of his varied oeuvre. Additionally, it explores Symonds's place in the aesthetic and philosophical movements of his century, as well ashis important relationships to predecessors such as Winckelmann, Byron, and Hegel, and contemporaries like Benjamin Jowett, Edward Carpenter, Frederic Myers, Robert Louis Stevenson, Oscar Wilde, Walter Pater, and Henry James, and successors like Sigmund Freud.Engagingly written and meticulously researched, including thorough consultation of unpublished archival materials, The Passions of John Addington Symonds brings this neglected protagonist of nineteenth-century thought vividly to life, unsettling conventional genealogies of how we think today.
