    Notes:

    Distinguishing between the incomplete poem and the unfinished poem, Professor Rajan sees the unfinished poem as remaining in dialogue with its own dissensions. He contributes to current critical debates by showing how the long poem resists assimilation to the forces of both unification and undecidability, finding its significance on the line of engagement between them.Originally published in 1985.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

    In this fascinating study, Geoffrey Russom traces the evolution of the major English poetic traditions by reference to the evolution of the English language, and considers how verse forms are born, how they evolve, and why they die. Using a general theory of poetic form employing universal principles rooted in the human language faculty, Russom argues that certain kinds of poetry tend to arise spontaneously in languages with identifiable characteristics. Language changes may require modification of metrical rules and may eventually lead to extinction of a meter. Russom's theory is applied to explain the development of English meters from the earliest alliterative poems in Old and Middle English and the transition to iambic meter in the Modern English period. This thorough yet accessible study provides detailed analyses of form in key poems, including Beowulf and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and a glossary of technical terms

    Poetry and Bondage is a groundbreaking and comprehensive study of the history of poetic constraint. For millennia, poets have compared verse to bondage - chains, fetters, cells, or slavery. Tracing this metaphor from Ovid through the present, Andrea Brady reveals the contributions to poetics of people who are actually in bondage. How, the book asks, does our understanding of the lyric - and the political freedoms and forms of human being it is supposed to epitomise - change, if we listen to the voices of enslaved and imprisoned poets? Bringing canonical and contemporary poets into dialogue, from Thomas Wyatt to Rob Halpern, Emily Dickinson to M. NourbeSe Philip, and Phillis Wheatley to Lisa Robertson, the book also examines poetry that emerged from the plantation and the prison. This book is a major intervention in lyric studies and literary criticism, interrogating the whiteness of those disciplines and exploring the possibilities for committed poetry today

    Since the 1990s, following the end of postmodernism, literary theory has lost much of its dynamics. This book aims at revitalising literary theory exploring two of its historical bases: German poetics and aesthetics. Beginning in the 1770s and ending in the 1950s, the book examines nearly 200 years of this history, thereby providing the reader with a first history of poetics as well as with bibliographies of the subject. Particular attention is paid to the aesthetics and poetics of popular philosophy, of the Hegel-school, empirical and psychological tendencies in the field since the 1860s, the first steps towards a plurality of methods (1890-1930), theoretical confrontations during the Nazi-period as well as the rise of formalist and anthropological approaches from the 1930s onwards. All approaches are evaluated regarding their relevance for academia as well as for the general history of education. If possible, international references and contexts of the relevant theories are taken into account. In sum, the analysis not only shows how differentiated historical accounts in the field were but also reflects how current literary theory could move forward through the rediscovery of sunken ideas

    Gegenstand der Arbeit ist die Frage, was in der Zeit von 1450 bis 1750 als Dichtung begriffen wurde. Der erste Teil ist den Begriffen der Nachahmung und Gleichnishaftigkeit gewidmet und rekonstruiert die Rezeptionsgeschichte der aristotelischen "Poetik", deren Nachahmungsbegriff erst sichtbar werden konnte, als die Definition der Dichtung über Gleichnishaftigkeit, Exemplarizität oder ähnliche Konzepte in den Hintergrund zu treten begann. Mitte des 17. Jahrhunderts ersetzt der Begriff der Fiktion den Begriff der Nachahmung. Der zweite Teil der Arbeit rekonstruiert die Geschichte des Enthusiasmus, der von den neuplatonisch beeinflussten Autoren um 1500 noch als göttliche Inspiration verstanden wird. Aus theologischen Gründen wird mit der Reformation die Möglichkeit einer göttlichen Inspiration bestritten. Inspiration ist jetzt nur noch eine Metapher für Begabung. Daraus entwickelt sich die Deutung des Enthusiasmus als einer besonderen "Stimmung" des lyrischen Dichters. Damit schreibt die Arbeit die doppelte Geschichte des Begriffes der Dichtung, der in der Moderne einerseits die Fiktionalität als charakteristisches Merkmal bezeichnet, andererseits aber den spezifisch inspirierten Charakter der "Lyrik"

    Die These vom Tod des Autors verdankt sich einem Gestus der Übertreibung. Inzwischen sind produktionsästhetische Fragestellungen in die Literaturwissenschaft zurückgekehrt. Die Studie versteht sich als Beitrag zur Geschichte der immanenten Poetik im Sinne Hans Blumenbergs. In exemplarischen Einzeluntersuchungen zu Lessing, Goethe, Schiller und den Frühromantikern wird gezeigt, wie sich in der deutschen Literatur um 1800 eine gegen die Genieästhetik gerichtete Logik des Machens herausbildet, die das metaphysische Erbe des Platonismus überwindet. Sie resultiert aus einer genauen Selbstbeobachtung des Schriftstellers beim Prozess des Schreibens. Poes berühmter Essay »The Philosophy of Composition« illustriert die neuen Erkenntnisse. Er markiert nicht, wie bisher stets angenommen, den Beginn der modernen Poetik, sondern schließt ihre Frühgeschichte ab

    Distinguishing between the incomplete poem and the unfinished poem, Professor Rajan sees the unfinished poem as remaining in dialogue with its own dissensions. He contributes to current critical debates by showing how the long poem resists assimilation to the forces of both unification and undecidability, finding its significance on the line of engagement between them.

    Introduction: Approaching literature and approaching criticism -- Renaissance criticism: The defence of poesie -- Restoration criticism: Of dramatic poesie, an essay -- Neoclassical criticism: An essay on man -- The rise of the novel: Preface to Joseph Andrews -- Romantic criticism: Preface to lyrical ballads, biographia literaria, a defence of poetry -- Victorian criticism: The study of poetry, modern painters, studies in the history of the Renaissance, the art of fiction -- Conclusion: The practitioners speak theory: British writer-critics and the movement of literary criticism

    Golban offers an interdisciplinary perspective involving literary theory, criticism, and literary history which will be useful to scholars and students. The main concern of the book is the British critical discourse which originates in the Renaissance and continues its developmental process until the rise of the formal approach to literature in the twentieth century. Some of these author critics, like Sidney and Dryden, develop critical ideas based on a respectable classical tradition; others, like Coleridge and Ruskin, were more original and innovative in their critical theories.

    This is the first book in English to deal with the twin subjects of Old Norse poetry and the various vernacular treatises on native poetry that were a conspicuous feature of medieval intellectual life in Iceland and the Orkneys from the mid-twelfth to the fourteenth centuries. Its aim is to give a clear description of the rich poetic tradition of early Scandinavia, particularly in Iceland, where it reached its zenith, and to demonstrate the social contexts that favoured poetic composition, from the oral societies of the early Viking Age in Norway and its colonies to the devout compositions of literate Christian clerics in fourteenth-century Iceland. The author analyses the two dominant poetic modes, eddic and skaldic, giving fresh examples of their various styles and subjects; looks at the prose contexts in which most Old Norse poetry has been preserved; and discusses problems of interpretation that arise because of the poetry's mode of transmission. She is concerned throughout to link indigenous theory with practice, beginning with the pre-Christian ideology of poets as favoured by the god ódinn and concluding with the Christian notion that a plain style best conveys the poet's message
