  • Poems About Poets
    1 BYRON’S POEMS ABOUT POETS Some of the funniest of Byron’s poems spring with seeming spontaneity from his pen in the middle of his letters. Much of this section comes from correspondence, though there is some formal verse. Several pieces are parodies, some one-off squibs, some full-length. Byron’s distaste for most of the poets of his day shines through, with the recurrent and well-worn traditional joke that their books will end either as stuffing in hatshops, wrapped around pastries, or as toilet-tissue. Byron admired the English poets of the past – the Augustans especially – much more than he did any of his contemporaries. Of “the Romantic Movement” he knew no more than did any of the other writers supposed now to have been members of it. Southey he loathed, as a dreadful doppelgänger – see below. Of Wordsworth he also had a low opinion, based largely on The Excursion – to the ambitions of which Don Juan can be regarded as a riposte (there are as many negative comments about Wordsworth in Don Juan as there are about Southey). He was as abusive of Keats as it’s possible to be, and only relented (as he said), when Shelley showed him Hyperion. Of the poetry of his friend Shelley he was very guarded indeed, and compensated by defending Shelley’s moral reputation. Blake he seems not to have known (“Blake” was him the name of a well-known Fleet Street barber). The only poet of whom his judgement and modern estimate coincide is Coleridge: he was strong in his admiration for The Ancient Mariner, Kubla Khan, and Christabel; about the conversational poems he seems blank, and he feigns total incomprehension of the Biographia Literaria (see below).

Overview Music 241 concentrates on what is sometimes called “early music,” music in the Western tradition from the Medieval, Renaissance, and early Baroque periods (to ca. 1700). The course deals with composers, their works, and the cultures in which the musical compositions arose, treating its subjects from several viewpoints: historical, cultural, and analytical. Music 241 will introduce you to: 1) a variety of musical compositions, representing the range of styles and genres cultivated in the Medieval, Renaissance, and early Baroque; 2) the historical and analytical questions posed by those works, and most fundamentally; 3) questions about the nature of historical understanding--the ways in which historians think about and study such music.

    Slovenian 19TH Century literary responses to the Poetry of Lord Byron Byronism on the the Slovene Territory in the 19th century Igor Maver University of Ljubljana [email protected] https://dx.doi.org/10.12795/futhark.2011.i06.09 Abstract The article examines the influence of lord Byron's poetry through the translations into the Slovenian language in the 19th century. Byron is analyzed through the translations and cultural mediation of the poets dr. France Prešeren, Jovan Vesel Koseski and Josip Stritar, who all, particularly Prešeren, contributed to the development of the Slovenian Romantic Revival movement and Slovenian literature in its own right within the Habsburg and later the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. Lord Byron's poetry enabled Slovenian poets and translators to articulate their own national/political identification within the multinational empire. Keywords: English romanticism, lord Byron, poetry translation, the Habsburg monarchy Studying verse translation always means being aware of the many parallel processes that shape a culture at a given point of time, taking into account the economic, political, social and “metaphysical” needs implicit in the choice of texts for translation and consequent cultural dissemination. This dimension has been all too often ignored in investigations of various translation processes, even though it would substantially enrich the general knowledge of a cultural history (Bassnett 1991; Maver 1991), for the role of cultural exchange and cultural diffusion by verse translation is undeniable. This study is based on the Futhark 6 (2011) Recibido 01/03/2010 ISSN 1886-9300 Aceptado: 09/07/2010 194 results of my detailed research of 19th century byronism in the Slovene cultural space (Maver 1989; 2005), concentrating on the metalinguistic complexity of a particular verse translation into the target language and its significance in a metatextual sense in terms of a modified cultural understanding and valuation of Byron’s originals.

  • 1 George Noel Gordon, Lord Byron (1788-1824) Excerpts from Hebrew Melodies “She Walks in Beauty” She Walks in Beauty, Like T
    George Noel Gordon, Lord Byron (1788-1824) Excerpts from Hebrew Melodies “She Walks in Beauty” She walks in Beauty, like the night 1 Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that ‘s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellow’d to that tender light 5 Which Heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impair’d the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress, Or softly lightens o’er her face; 10 Where thoughts serenely sweet express, How pure, how dear their dwelling-place. And on that cheek, and o’er that brow, So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, The smiles that win, the tints that glow, 15 But tell of days in goodness spent, A mind at peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent! 18 “If That High World” If that high world, which lies beyond 1 Our own, surviving Love endears; If there the cherish’d heart be fond, The eye the same, except in tears— How welcome those untrodden spheres! 5 How sweet this very hour to die! To soar from earth and find all fears Lost in thy light—Eternity! 1 It must be so: ‘t is not for self That we so tremble on the brink; 10 And striving to o’erleap the gulf, Yet cling to Being's severing link. Oh! in that future let us think To hold each heart the heart that shares, With them the immortal waters drink, 15 And soul in soul grow deathless theirs! 16 “All Is Vanity, Saith the Preacher” Fame, Wisdom, Love, and Power were mine, 1 And Health and Youth possess’d me; My goblets blush’d from every vine, And lovely forms caress’d me; I sunn’d my heart in Beauty's eyes, 5 And felt my soul grow tender; All Earth can give, or mortal prize, Was mine of regal splendour.

  • Byron's Correspondence With
    1 BYRON’S CORRESPONDENCE WITH DOUGLAS KINNAIRD – Part 1, 1814-1821 Update June 5th 2011. Edited by Peter Cochran This section has been in part prepared with generous support from Mr Geoffrey Bond. Letters and sections of letters not yet seen are reproduced from the John Murray edition, with kind permission. Introduction (by P.C., expanding Ralph Lloyd-Jones) Douglas Kinnaird was born on February 26th 1788, the fourth son of George, the seventh Lord Kinnaird, of Inchture, Perthshire. He was educated from 1799 to 1802 at Eton, then at Gottingen University, where he became fluent in French and German. He graduated MA from Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1811. In July 1813 he went to Germany again, where he visited Alexander I’s headquarters at Peterswaldau. In Berlin, J.C.Hobhouse fell in love, and was unwise enough to confess his infatuation to Kinnaird, who “did a Byron” and told everyone else. Kinnaird witnessed the Russo- Prussian victory over the French at Kulm, on August 30th. Travelling via Prague to Paris, he was present at Louis XVIII’s first entry, on April 28th 1814, before returning to England with the journalist William Jerdan. Although Kinnaird had been acquainted with Byron at Cambridge, their friendship began in earnest in the winter of 1814 when Moore recalls “those evenings we passed together at the house of ... Douglas Kinnaird, where music, – followed by its accustomed sequel of supper, brandy and water, and not a little laughter, – kept us together, usually till rather a late hour”.1 These parties were presided over by Kinnaird’s mistress, the actress and singer Maria Keppel, mother to an illegitimate son born in April 1814.
