About A. d. 1300. * Egidio Colonna, better known as .^gidius Romanus, was a Pupil of Thomas Aqui- nas, and was surnamed the profound Scholar. He died at Avignon in i.'?t6, having been Arch- bishop of Bourges since 1292. This work was written before 1268, as shown by its dedication to Philippe le Bel while he was yet only heir to the crown. The date of Ganchi's translation is not ascertained, but the present MS. proves that it was anterior to 1300, probably almost contemporary with the Latin original. The above MS. was probably written in England, to judge from the handwriting and the style of ornament; and the linguistic forms, although more approximating to French than to English style, are not adverse to that view. Here is a specimen—"Quer cil q est fouslarges en sa ie'nesce puet estre avaricious en sa viellesce." The book was in Eng- lish possession in Henry VII. 's time, as several minute glosses in English (and also in Latin) *re visible on the margins in an English hand of that period. Amongst these we find boorder- esses=iangelars [i.e. idle gossippers], cncluine=anefeld [anvil], euxtres=dcdis or actis, aenutz= pig-earde, forslignent=doth ayenst kind, ramenez=broght ayen; etc. Consequently if the asser- tion is correct, which we find in a cutting from the Paris sale-catalogue of 1790, that this MS. belonged to Claude Durfe, he must have acquired it in England at the time of his mission here. The velvet binding in which the book is clothed at present was put upon it for Henri de Cler- mont Tonnere about 1580, as we can see from the impression left on the^ velvet by the (now removed) metal plaque which formed the center ornament. The metal pieces of the corners still remain. —A Mr. Concannon bought the MS. at a Paris auction in 1790; at the sale of his books at Christie's in 1800, it was purchased by Mr. W'odhuU. 3. COLONNA, EGIDIO. De Regimine Principum. Early Fifteenth Cen- tury Manuscript of German origin, written in red and black, in Latin, on 261 leaves of paper. Long lines, 22 to the page. The large Initial Letters are painted in red and blue. The Colophon states that the MS. was written by Petrus Schwalb for Magister Johannes de Fermer in 1412. Small folio, oak boards covered with light calf. 1412. 4. GUYGEMAR. Manuscript poem written in Old French on 175 pages of fine writing paper. Small 4to, full brown calf extra, inside borders.

  • Epic and Romance Essays on Medieval Literature W
    EPIC AND ROMANCE ESSAYS ON MEDIEVAL LITERATURE W. P. KER PREFACE These essays are intended as a general description of some of the principal forms of narrative literature in the Middle Ages, and as a review of some of the more interesting works in each period. It is hardly necessary to say that the conclusion is one "in which nothing is concluded," and that whole tracts of literature have been barely touched on--the English metrical romances, the Middle High German poems, the ballads, Northern and Southern--which would require to be considered in any systematic treatment of this part of history. Many serious difficulties have been evaded (in Finnesburh, more particularly), and many things have been taken for granted, too easily. My apology must be that there seemed to be certain results available for criticism, apart from the more strict and scientific procedure which is required to solve the more difficult problems of Beowulf, or of the old Northern or the old French poetry. It is hoped that something may be gained by a less minute and exacting consideration of the whole field, and by an attempt to bring the more distant and dissociated parts of the subject into relation with one another, in one view. Some of these notes have been already used, in a course of three lectures at the Royal Institution, in March 1892, on "the Progress of Romance in the Middle Ages," and in lectures given at University College and elsewhere. The plot of the Dutch romance of Walewein was discussed in a paper submitted to the Folk-Lore Society two years ago, and published in the journal of the Society (Folk-Lore, vol.

  • Évolution Du Personnage Épique Médiéval Sur L'exemple De
    Dorota Pudo Université Jagellonne de Cracovie ÉVOLUTION DU PERSONNAGE ÉPIQUE MÉDIÉVAL SUR L’EXEMPLE DE QUELQUES TEXTES CONSACRÉS À GUILLAUME D’ORANGE ET À HUON DE BORDEAUX Le moyen âge est une longue époque, et cela même si nous limitons notre champ de recherche à une partie de cette période seulement, à savoir celle qui voit la littérature en vieux français déjà en pleine floraison : le moyen âge « classique » (le XII e et le XIII e s.) et tardif (le XIV e et le XV e s.). Sur l’espace de quatre siècles, beaucoup de phénomènes littéraires ont eu le temps de naître, évoluer et disparaître dans l’oubli des époques à venir ; d’autres, en passant de leur état primitif vers des formes de plus en plus modernes et éclectiques, ont su se faire une place durable dans la culture universelle. La littérature épique de la France médiévale nous semble appartenir à cette dernière catégorie. Sa résistance au temps nous paraît considérable même si, peu intéressée aux spéculations concernant son existence pendant les « siècles muets » qui ne nous laissent pas de témoins écrits, nous bornons la portée de nos remarques à la période délimitée ci-dessus. Ce genre littéraire a subi certains changements considérables déjà au cours des XII e et XIII e s. ; au niveau formel, les laisses se sont généralement allongées avec le temps, et les procédés typiques de l’épopée de l’âge d’or (parallélismes, similarités, reprises) se sont faits moins fréquents. 1 Quant au contenu, à cause de l’assimilation de certains thèmes romanesques, l’épopée du XIIIe s.

Cursor Mundi. PREFACE. THE object of this work is to familiarize young students with the legends which form the staple of mediaeval literature. While they may owe more than is apparent at first sight to the classical writings of the palmy days of Greece and Rome, these legends are very characteristic of the people who told them, and they are the best exponents of the customs, manners, and beliefs of the time to which they belong. They have been repeated in poetry and prose with endless variations, and some of our greatest modem writers have deemed them worthy of a new dress, as is seen in Tennyson's " Idyls of the King," Goethe's " Reineke Fuchs," Tegn6r's " Frithiof Saga," Wieland's " Oberon," Morris's " Story of Sigurd," and many shorter works by these and less noted writers.

In some cases, these are intimately bound up with the works of the master, although the intertextuality of the whole corpus of verse romance transcends the codicological context. I shall review here selected manuscripts in which some epigonal romances have been transmitted and what they can tell us about ways in which these texts were read in the Middle Ages. The romances in question are : Renaut de Bâgé (Beaujeu), Le bel inconnu Paien de Maisières, La mule sans frein Le chevalier à l’épée Raoul de Houdenc, Meraugis de Portlesguez Raoul (de Houdenc ?), La vengeance Raguidel L’âtre périlleux Guillaume le Clerc, Fergus Hunbaut Yder Floriant et Florete Le chevalier aux deux épées Girard d’Amiens, Escanor Claris et Laris Jehan, Les merveilles de Rigomer Compared with Chrétien’s romances, themselves only preserved in half-a- dozen copies on average (but fifteen plus fragments of Perceval), these works are mainly codicological unica, with only Meraugis de Portlesguez, La vengeance Raguidel, L’âtre périlleux, and Fergus surviving in more than one complete exemplar.

  • Romance Tradition in Eighteenth-Century Fiction : a Study of Smollett
    THE ROMANCE TRADITION IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY FICTION: A STUDY OF SMOLLETT By MICHAEL W. RAYMOND COUNCIL OF A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA FOR THE IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 197^ ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I wish to express heartfelt appreciation to a few of the various multitude who provided incalculable tangible and intangible assistance in bringing this quest to an ordered resolution. Professors Aubrey L. Williams and D. A. Bonneville were most generous, courteous, and dexterous in their assist- ance and encouragement. Their willing contributions in the closing stages of the journey made it less full of "toil and danger" and less "thorny and troublesome." My wife, Judith, was ever present. At once heroine, guide, and Sancho Panza, she bore my short-lived triumphs and enduring despair. She did the work, but I am most grate- ful that she came to understand what the quest meant and what it meant to me. No flights of soaring imagination or extravagant rhetoric can describe adequately my gratitude to Professor Melvyn New. He represents the objective and the signifi- cance of the quest. He always has been the complete scholar and teacher. His contributions to this work have been un- tiring and infinite. More important to me, however, has been and is Professor New's personal example. He embodies the ideal combination of scholar and teacher. Professor Melvyn New shows that the quest for this ideal can be and should be attempted and accomplished.
