Che il quadro teoretico di tale prospettiva rimanga d’altro canto non del tutto risolto anche per aspetti fondamentali (come si vedrà qui e nelle Considerazioni finali) si deve, almeno in parte, alla fase espansiva – verrebbe da dire “eruttiva” – della ricerca e alla parcellizzazione degli approcci disciplinari concomitanti, e talvolta concorrenti, nella galassia comparatistica: si pensi agli ormai imponenti Classical Reception Studies, Traductological Studies, Post-colonial Studies4, Gender Studies. Tanto in Portogallo quanto in Brasile, inoltre, gli studi tendono a concentrarsi sulla fortuna di singole figure mitiche o di determinati motivi greco-latini entro i rispettivi confini nazionali, magari sullo sfondo dei contesti geopolitici di appartenenza (l’Europa dell’Unione, l’America latina), laddove la storia e la lingua comuni dell’ex impero consentirebbero ricognizioni impregiudicate e più ambiziose5.

ROUSE, M.A. FORMERLY FELLOW OF CHRIST'S COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGI AND A MASTER AT RUGBY SCHOOL AT THE CLARENDON PRESS 1899 Orforfc PRINTED AT THE CLARENDON PRESS BY HORACE HART, M.A. PRINTER TO THE UNIVERSITY PREFACE THE aim of this book is to show by examples the process of translation into Latin Elegiac Verse. ' ' Collections of fair copies there are in plenty, and I should have been in no haste to add to their number but this is to show how the ; book designed copies take shape out of chaos, why out of many possible renderings one is selected, what are the principles of the art. It is intended for the use of those who have worked through some elementary book, Penrose for instance, and are not ready to tackle the poems in Holden's collection. Such as these will, I hope, find benefit from reading the here and cannot fail to learn specimens given ; they a great deal from the collection of Ovidian lines in the Introduction. The book may also in some degree help to make up for lack of a competent teacher, in the case of students who have none. Nor am I without hope that some teachers may find the book useful. The common method of dic- tating a fair copy, with perhaps a few words of ex- is not on the other planation, altogether satisfactory ; VI PREFACE hand, if the copy is evolved in the course of a lecture, it will prove both useful and interesting.

Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Jessica Wolfe Reid Barbour Mary Floyd-Wilson Darryl Gless Ritchie Kendall © 2009 William McCullough Russell ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT WILLIAM McCULLOUGH RUSSELL: The Invention of the Critic in England, 1570-1640 (Under the direction of Jessica Wolfe) This dissertation examines the social and intellectual forces that shaped the idea of the literary critic in early modern England. Histories of criticism too often neglect critical identity, fastidiously tracing the development of such concepts as imitation yet taking for granted the idea of the critic as stable and transparent. This study complicates that idea by historicizing it in the very period when the word critic first began to signify an expert in literary judgment. Revising reductive assessments of this era of criticism as the sum of its classical parts, I argue that the idea of the critic in early modern England was negotiated in a discourse equally responsive to classical precedent and to the economic, political, and religious circumstances of a rapidly changing national landscape. Such pivotal moments as the erection of public theaters in London, the Marprelate controversy, the tide of anti-intellectualism rising from what Gabriel Harvey called “the world of business,” and the English chapter of the scientific revolution forced English critics from Sidney to Jonson to reevaluate the basis and scope of critical authority.

Davis, Clark Memorial Library INTRODUCTION The publishing history of this translation has been sketched by Cross, in his History of Henry Fielding, and may simply be summarized here. The first edition, entitled Ovid's Art of Love Paraphrased and Adapted to the Present Time (or Times) was first issued in February, 1747, and was advertised in the Gentleman's and Scots Magazines in that month. During March, further advertisements appeared in the London Magazine and the St. James Evening Post. The most extensive notice ran, however, in Fielding's own Jacobite Journal (No. 15), where it served as basis for a detailed comparison between the art of love and 2 the art of Jacobitism. Of this 1747 anonymous, original edition no copy is known.
