  • And Seventeenth-Century Europe
    The Culture of Dis/simulation in Sixteenth- and Seventeenth-Century Europe Michael Gordian A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Combined Historical Studies The Warburg Institute University of London 2014 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Michael Gordian 2 Abstract This dissertation examines early modern perceptions of the twin notions of simulation and dissimulation – which I refer to jointly as ‘dis/simulation’ – in various literary, social and semantic contexts and from a pan-European perspective. I look at how this thorny and controversial moral issue was addressed and discussed in a wide range of genres and texts and how it was disseminated to a broader readership. The introduction explains my approach to the subject, provides an overview of previous scholarship and includes a short excursus on three literary genres not discussed in detail in the dissertation. In the first chapter, I analyse the varied treatment of dis/simulation in emblem books. In the following chapter I explore the link between the problem of dis/simulation and early modern reform plans for poor relief, focusing on debates in Spain. Chapter 3 looks at texts from other European countries and establishes the connection between, on the one hand, learned and scholarly discussions of the problem of mendicancy and, on the other, popular literature in which the deceptions and disguises of beggars, rogues and tricksters were a recurrent theme. The next chapter deals with the contemporary perceptions of courtesans and analyses the nexus between love, passions and dis/simulation.

  • POGGIO and OTHER BOOK HUNTERS Julia Haig Gaisser Book
    POGGIO AND OTHER BOOK HUNTERS Julia Haig Gaisser Abstract: Seeking out rare and precious texts, or book hunting, was a favor- ite pursuit of the Renaissance humanists, but the activity had been practiced with enthusiasm (and often guile) since antiquity. This paper discusses the phe- nomenon over time, looking at representative book hunters from Aulus Gellius (second century CE) to Poggio Bracciolini (1380-1459), who was probably the most famous book hunter of them all. I will consider the discoveries of Catullus, Cicero’s Letters to Atticus, and Apuleius as well as several of the most famous finds of Poggio himself, emhasizing in each case the circumstances and method of dis- covery, the importance of the find, and the fate of the discovered book. The pa- per will close with a brief epilogue on some modern book hunters. Keywords: book hunting, libraries, Phyllis Gordan, Dante, Boccaccio, Niccoló Niccoli, Cicero, Catullus, Apuleius, Quintilian, Lucretius Book hunting – by which I mean seeking out rare and precious texts, usually belonging to someone else – is an ancient if not always honor- able activity; and it has been enthusiastically practiced since at least the time of the Alexandrian library1. Then, as the story goes, the Ptolemies stopped every arriving ship, confiscated its books and replaced them with copies. They borrowed the precious official texts of the tragedians from Athens, paying a huge deposit of fifteen talents. But instead of returning the books themselves, they gave back elegant and beautiful copies, for- feiting their deposit and thereby paying the largest library fine in history. The Romans were equally unscrupulous, bringing home whole libraries as war booty from Greece.

The Rise and Fall of Goritz's Feasts* by JULIA HAIG GAISSER A T HIS FESTIVALIN 1513 the talking statue Pasquino took the character of Apollo to celebrate the election of Leo X and to predict a golden age of patronage and poetry. "I used to be an ex- ile," Pasquino/Apollo remarks, "But I'm back in Leo's reign. / So burn your midnight oil, boys, / And follow in my train, / For no one leaves my Leo / Without a handsome gain. / Bards will sing for prizes, /And they'll not sing in vain."2 The new era lived up to Pasquino's expectations, for the Roman humanists were rewarded and entertained not only in the papal court but also, less formally, in the vigne of numerous Maecenases and fellow poets, where they came together in literary groups, or sodalities, to dine, exchange their poetry, and celebrate the shared ideals of the humanist community.

  • Recovering Pindar's Metre
    The Classical Review VOLUME 50 NO. 2 2000 ODYSSEUS’ RETURNS G. D: Epos und Zitat: Studien zu den Quellen der Odyssee. (Wiener Studien, Beiheft 22.) Pp. viii + 526. Vienna: Verlag der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, 1998. Paper, DM 92. ISBN: 3-7001-2720-0. The Odyssey is arguably the µnest tale in Western literature, and the telling of it skilful in narrative detail and subtle in psychological understanding; yet it contains more apparent incoherences than the Iliad. These are not particularly familiar to English-speaking readers, as few Homerists of the analytical persuasion have written on the Odyssey in English. However, in Germany there has been a great deal of work, arguing that the Odyssey as we have it contains relics, echoes, or hints of other versions of the tale of Odysseus’ return. Even Schadewaldt, who was convinced himself and convinced others of the unity of composition of the Iliad,thus e¶ectively bringing an end to a century of German scholarship, was nevertheless driven to an analytical explanation of the Odyssey, specifying two successive composers. There have been other authoritative analysts in recent years, in addition to the old style analysis contemporary with that of the Iliad, of, for example, Kirchho¶, who in·uenced D. L. Page’s The Homeric Odyssey (Oxford, 1955). Georg Danek is a scholar at the University of Vienna, where Professor Hans Schwabl has continued the µne tradition of Albin Lesky. D. has been known up to now especially for his doctoral dissertation Studien zur Dolonie (published in 1988), in which he solved the problem of Iliad 10, or at least came as near to a solution as seems possible at this time (see CR 39 [1989], 178–80); he has now produced a huge book on the Odyssey, which may turn out to be just as important.

THE CLASSICAL REVIEW 445 RENAISSANCE OVID A. Moss: Latin Commentarieson Ovidfrom the Renaissance.Pp. xv + 260, 7 ills. Signal Mountain, TN: Summertown, for the Library of Renaissance Humanism, 1998. Cased, $45. ISBN: 1-893009-02-S. Ovid has been one of the principal beneficiaries in the recent boom in reception studies, as a spate of books in the last fifteen years or so attests. One thinks of L. Barkan, The Gods Made Flesh (New Haven, 1986) and J. Bate, Shakespeare and Ovid (Oxford, 1993), as well as the essays collected in C. Martindale, Ovid Renewed (Cambridge, 1988), H. Lamarque and A. Baiche, Ovide en France dans la Renaissance (Toulouse, 1981), and-most recently-P. Hardie, A. Barchiesi, and S. Hinds, Ovidian Transformations(Cambridge, 1999). Moss herself has made important contributions both to Ovid and to reception studies generally with Ovid in Renaissance France (London, 1982), Poetry and Fable (Cambridge, 1984), and especially her recent ground-breaking work on Renaissance reading, Printed Commonplace-Booksand the Structuring of Renaissance Thought (Oxford, 1996).

  • Boccaccio's Hellenism And
    BOCCACCIO’S HELLENISM AND THE FOUNDATIONS OF MODERNITY David Lummus The first sentence of the final book of Giovanni Boccaccio’sGenealogie Deorum Gentilium defines the way we should conceive of the impor- tance of the previous thirteen books on Greco-Roman myth and the defense of poetry in Book Fourteen: Fundavi, serenissime rex, quibus potui armamentis hinc inde naviculam, ne estu procellosi maris aut ventorum adverso impetu pelleretur in litus, et illisa ruptis compagibus solveretur. [I have now secured ( fundavi) my little bark (navic- ula), O most clement King, by such means as I could, for fear she should be driven ashore by the wash of a stormy sea or the counterforce of the wind, with joints sprung and timbers crushed.]1 The first word of this sentence,fundavi , from fundare, “to found, estab- lish, or secure,” expresses precisely what Boccaccio has done in his treatise and what he completes in the fifteenth book: he has founded and secured a fully articulated cultural project. The imagery of this final proem is the same as that of the earlier books: his study is pre- sented metaphorically as a navicula, or “bark,” and Boccaccio himself as a traveler, as he crosses the sea of time and space that separates him from antiquity. Following the letter of his metaphor, Boccaccio has just anchored his ship, securing it against the waves and winds of for- tune and envy. Looking more closely, though, it is clear that he thinks to have founded something new with his study, even if only on the instability of the sea.
