Abstract: In a literary genre largely concerned with masculine succession, the late fourteenth-century French Roman de Melusine is almost unique in providing multiple and sustained examples of mother characters using construction to promote matrilineal dynasties and networks of women's familial community.1 There are two mothers in particular who are specifically connected with the building of both physical structures and of lineage, family, and dynasty: Presine and her daughter, Melusine. Presine's attempts to control space in her motherhood are the forerunner to Melusine's legacy as a builder, as Presine uses physical space to direct familial relations and create lineage and dynasty. Melusine's legacy begins with Presine.In ... Read More PubDate: 2024-08-08T00:00:00-05:00

Abstract: Pearl, a poem about a man mourning the death of a young girl—the "precios Perle" referenced in the poem's opening stanzas—might at first appear to have little in common with the chivalric romances in which we traditionally, and most frequently, see fairies and fairy land appearing in the Middle Ages.1 The poem is a dream vision narrative in which the dreamer enters into, and traverses through, a bizarre and colorful landscape. During the course of his journey, he comes across his lost pearl, no longer a child but fully grown and richly arrayed, who speaks to him of her place in Heaven as one of the virgin brides of Christ before granting him a vision of the Heavenly City, in which he sees Christ arrayed in all his ...

Abstract: In a 1981 essay entitled "What Happened to Two of Herbert's Poems'," Frank Livingstone Huntley contended, at the time somewhat controversially, that several fairly major changes should be made to the current formats, titles, and positions of a number of poems in The Temple in an effort to better account for the effect of certain scribal errors introduced by the Bodleian manuscript and inherited by Thomas Buck's 1633 Cambridge edition of Herbert's poems ("Whatever happened" from the Williams manuscript to the Bodleian manuscript, or, in his words, "from W to B").1 As no less a figure than the editor of the diplomatic edition of the Bodleian manuscript would later accede, "It is difficult to disagree."2 Huntley ...

Abstract: The history of emotion is one of the most important developing areas in early modern studies today.1 One goal of scholarship in this field is to excavate the specific emotional discourses of early modern England: recent commentators, for example, have paid particular attention to the workings of Renaissance envy, demonstrating how this affective mode is a fundamental aspect of interpersonal (and literary) relations in the period.2 But while early modern envy has been well considered, the same cannot as yet be said for envy's sibling emotion: the related passion of jealousy.3 The current essay, it follows, attempts to fill this gap in the research, by anatomizing the various ways that early modern English thinkers ...
