John Anderson, and communicated by Mr Small, Librarian of the Edinburgh University, we learn that he was a pres- byter of the diocese of Glasgow, and that in 1555 he acted as a notary in Dalkeith. From his poem, ‘The Court of Venus,’ it is plain he was thoroughly versed in Scots law. Nor is this to be wondered at; for “at an early period, when the Canon Law prevailed in Scotland, few persons, it is believed, other than ecclesiastics, were qualified to exercise the office of notary in executing deeds and other legal instruments. This arose from the circumstance that they were almost the only persons who were competent by their education and a knowledge of Civil and Canon Law. Each notary held his appointment by Papal and Imperial authority, confirmed by the Bishop of the Diocese, as Ordinary. By an Act of King James the Third, dated 20th November 1469,1 the Imperial authority was set et Vilelmo Murray, cum diuersis aliis testibus ad premissa vocatis pariter et rogatis. Alleluya.

INTRODUCTION. ix aside in favour of the King ; yet only those who held a commission from the Pope could act in matters spiritual or beneficial, while laymen were employed by virtue of regal authority in matters civil.”1 Rolland is the author of another poem entitled ‘ The Seuin Seages.’ From the description of the decline of Rome’s greatness given by him in the beginning of this poem, it may be concluded with some degree of prob- ability that he became a convert to Protestantism. He says:— “ Thay tuke na cure of na manis fauour nor feid, Sa thay become of all the warld the held: And had thairof the haill Authoritie, Bot this was not in time of Papistrie, For fra that time yt Papis was maid in Rome, Of all vertew that Cietie was maid tome. And day be day fra all vertew decrest Continuallie the self it ay opprest. For thre strangers rais vp in that Cietie. Ouhilkis of befoir na way wald sufferit be, The commoun weill caus thay war ay agane Thairin thairfoir thay wald not thole remane Bot fra Papis come that Nobill towne within It did abound sa sair in deidly sin, And that na stait to Clergie was compairs, Sa weill thay treit thir thre vncouth strangairs, Quhilk thre thir was, the first lurkand haitrent The secund was, Joung counsall and consent, Singular profite it was the thrid I wis, Quhilk thre was caus to gar Rome go amis. And causit it tine the greit triumphand Name, And to be callit the hous of warldlie schame. Tint the greit rowmes and warldlie possessious That thay conquest fra diuers vther Crowns. 1 Memoir of Robert Henryson, prefixed to the edition of 1 The Poems of Robert Henryson ’ by David Laing, p. xiv. X INTRODUCTION. All sic become throw wickitnes and vice, Of the Papists, and thair foule Merchandice. For thay wald gar ane pound of meltit leid Bring thame againe the wecht of golde sa reid. And gar the hippis of ane deid Zow or skin Assolje Jow of all Jour deidly sin, Incontinent in heuin vp to be brocht, Contrair Gods will, quhidderhe wald or nocht.”1 One can hardly think Holland would have written in this strain had he remained a faithful son of the Roman Church. On the other hand, from expressions in ‘ The Court of Venus’ he seems to have been of the Roman faith at the time he wrote that poem :— “ And maist part was my prayers to con Knowit on breist, and Cor mundum I [cryde].”2 And— “ With beidis in hand crossand & sayand creid.”3 It may therefore be inferred that he embraced the Protestant faith during the interval between the writing of ‘The Court of Venus’ and ‘The Seuin Seages’ if he did embrace it. II. CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE WRITING OF THE POEM. In the Prologue to ‘ The Seuin Seages ’ are told the circumstances of the composition of‘The Court of Venus.’ They were as follows : Four poets, David Lindsay, John Bellenden, William Stewart, and Durie, Bishop of Gallo- way, flourished at the Scots Court:— 1 ‘The Seven Sages in Scottish Meter,’by John Rolland of Dalkeith, pp. 1, 2. (Bannaytine Club, 1837.) 2 ‘The Court of Venus,’ i. 11. 44, 45. 3 Ibid. ii. 1. 565. INTRODUCTION. xi “ In Court that time was gude Dauid Lyndsay, In vulgar toung he bure the bell that day To mak meter, richt cunning and expart, And Maister lohne Ballentyne suith to say Mak him marrow to Dauid weill we may. And for the third, Maister Williame Stewart, To mak in Scottis, richt weill he knew that Art. Bischop Durie, sum tyme of Galloway, For his plesure sum tyme wald tak thair part.” 1 He appeared before them asking leave “ to schaw my diligence To manifest my waik wit and Ingyne, At thir foursum asking leif and licence, With hat and hand keiling with reuerence Me for to leir ane lessoun or a lyne Of thair prettick to me ane point propyne.” 2 They proposed to him something in the form of a dialogue— “ For to begin (quod thay) we wald ze drew Sum Dialog, or argument that is best, And that will mak zour mater manifest.”3 The proposal was rejected :— “ And sa fra thame Incontinent me drest, And tuke gude nicht, and said gude schirs adew.”4 He supped, went to bed, and had a dream. Queen Venus appeared to him, and suggested a subject:— “ Sa in my sleip me thocht I saw swythlie Lady Venus cumming and spak to me, And said I am cum with the for to ressoun, Thairfoir my wordis, se that thow not chessoun, Tuitching my stait, honour and dignitie Forzet me nocht quhen thou makis thy Sermoun.”8 1 ‘The Seven Sages,’ Prologue, A ij.

  • The 10-Year Itch Graham Ley, Exeter University I Feel It
    Supporting the Stone: The 10-Year Itch Graham Ley, Exeter University I feel it would be best if I talked about my role. I first contacted John Barton in 1989, and first met him in 1990. By that time John was chewing gum, not razor blades. He may have gone back to razor blades more recently - I don’t know. You will see me mentioned lavishly in the program as John Barton’s Dramaturg. That is John’s rather generous interpretation of what admittedly has been a strange role. I was rather more inclined to describe myself, over the years, as a research advisor, with some justice, because that brings in my first and most important point, which is that John was his own researcher throughout this project. I fulfilled the part of echo, or the wall to which one goes to talk, or the stream that babbles back at you and often babbles nonsense. When John talks or writes about the sources, these are sources that he himself has read and in which he found his inspiration for composition and variants. Tantalus is not just a labour of authorship as well as production; it has also been a massive labour of discovery, research, and sifting. Throughout the project John has had a succession of immensely dedicated and skilled personal assistants who have also either known Greek or known of Greek culture, and in many instances all three of us were involved in chasing problems. You will have to forgive me if I go into detail at some points in this paper; but the sources and even dramaturgy are about detail.

  • Aeneas and the Idea of Troy *
    Proceedings of the Virgil Society 21 (1993) 17-34 ©1993 Aeneas and the Idea of Troy * Troy, and its importance to Aeneas, makes an immediate appearance in the Aeneid, in those pregnant first lines: Arma virumque cano, Troiae qui primus ab oris I Italiam fato profugus Laviniaque venit I litora. I empha­ sise profugus. We may feel that Aeneas lacks colour, that he has little with which to engage our deeper sympathies. But his exile is a continuing theme that would have touched a chord in Roman hearts. For Romans to be exiled was a disconcerting, even depersonalising experience. In a letter to Atticus, written in 58 BC, during his exile, Cicero says that he feels a sense of loss not only for his possessions and friends but for himself: "For what am I now?" (3.15.2). Away from Rome, he had no role to play, nothing to define him as a Roman citizen. Ovid's poems from Tomi express year after year the same sense of deprivation: "My body is sick, but my mind sicker, ever surveying its ills; I miss the sight of the city, my dear friends, and, dearer than all, my wife" (Tr. 4.6.43-6). Seneca, consoling his mother for his own absence in Corsica, summarises the disadvantages of exile under three heads: poverty, disgrace and being the object of scorn {Dial. 12.6.1).1 Yet all these famous Romans had their hopes. Even Ovid, who was never allowed home, never quite despaired that flattery and the power of poetry would win his restoration.

Introduction: Timeo danaos et dona ferentis ~I fear the Greeks, especially bearing gifts (Aeneid 2.49) The above quote is one of the most famous in literature and takes place in a crucial moment in Virgil’s epic poem, the Aeneid. Laocoon, the Trojan priest, does not trust the intentions of the Trojan Horse and intends to destroy it. He refers to the Trojan Horse as a gift to be feared. But what makes this gift an object to be feared? The answer is a complex one, because the Trojan Horse is simply one part of a pattern of reciprocity present throughout the Aeneid. In this paper, I examine both the function of this pattern of reciprocity within the Aeneid and, by placing the Aeneid in multiple contexts, examine how this pattern of gift giving relates to the society and culture in Augustan Rome. I have analyzed the pattern of gift giving in the Aeneid using structural oppositions.
