The Poetry is in the pity." What made Owen reclaim that War evokes pity out of which his poetry germinated? What were the physical, social, economical and psychological implications of the Great war? Most importantly what was the emotion underneath the literature produced during the war years? These are few pertinent questions which need to be acknowledged before a comprehensive meaning can be derived of the myriad responses to the Great War of 1914. .liberal There were two powerfi,rlly forces, coinciding in England at the beginning of the Great war. The intersection ofthese two forces, .democratic,, the one 'aristocratic', and the other established an atmosphere of public respect for literature unique in modern time. unimaginable to us in today's world, it was this 'respect for literature, that made it not only possible for soldiers of all ranl<s to be literate but vigorously literary. It was the literary eamestness of the readers of 19 14- 18 that acted as a stimulus for writers. Aecording to paul Fussell, regardless of the social class or ranl(, there werc very few who did not hold the belief "that the greatest of modern literatures was the Engtish.

  • The Laureates' Lens
    THE LAUREATES’ LENS: EXPOSING THE DEVELOPMENT OF LITERARY HISTORY AND LITERARY CRITICISM FROM BENEATH THE DUNCE CAP Lindsay Emory Moore Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY University of North Texas December 2015 APPROVED: Gabriel Cervantes, Major Professor Dahlia Porter, Committee Member Deborah Armintor, Committee Member Robert Upchurch, Chair of the Department of English Costas Tsatsoulis, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Moore, Lindsay Emory. The Laureates’ Lens: Exposing the Development of Literary History and Literary Criticism from Beneath the Dunce Cap. Doctor of Philosophy (English), December 2015, 225 pp., references, 199 titles. In this project, I examine the impact of early literary criticism, early literary history, and the history of knowledge on the perception of the laureateship as it was formulated at specific moments in the eighteenth century. Instead of accepting the assessments of Pope and Johnson, I reconstruct the contemporary impact of laureate writings and the writing that fashioned the view of the laureates we have inherited. I use an array of primary documents (from letters and journal entries to poems and non-fiction prose) to analyze the way the laureateship as a literary identity was constructed in several key moments: the debate over hack literature in the pamphlet wars surrounding Elkanah Settle’s The Empress of Morocco (1673), the defense of Colley Cibber and his subsequent attempt to use his expertise of theater in An Apology for the Life of Colley Cibber (1740), the consolidation of hack literature and state-sponsored poetry with the crowning of Colley Cibber as the King of the Dunces in Pope’s The Dunciad in Four Books (1742), the fashioning of Thomas Gray and William Mason as laureate rejecters in Mason’s Memoirs of the Life and Writings of William Whitehead (1788), Southey’s progressive work to abolish laureate task writing in his laureate odes 1813-1821, and, finally, in Wordsworth’s refusal to produce any laureate task writing during his tenure, 1843-1850.

  • 'Beauty Springeth out of Naught': Interpreting the Church Music Of
    ‘Beauty Springeth Out of Naught’: Interpreting the Church Music of Herbert Howells Jonathan Clinch University of Durham Missa Sabrinensis is not designed for ritualistic use. It is essentially a composer’s personal and creative reaction to a text of immense, immemorial significance. Historically, its text has been used in countless diverse ways by many composers – Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, Schubert, Cherubini, Bruckner, Kodály, Janácek, Vaughan Williams and Rubbra are of the company. For each of these the Mass offered a disciplined but personal field of deep feeling and most intense expression, the scope and idiom of their settings have differed in each case. Non-ritualistic, the boundary-line between ‘sacred’ and ‘secular’ has nearly vanished. The emphasis has lain, instead, upon individual reaction to an Office of the Church that has become vivid, powerful, pervasive and irresistible part of the mental and spiritual nature of man. For the creative musician it has become – like the Passion – one of the two superlative texts for musical setting.1 These are Howells’s own words from 1956. They highlight not only what a strong sense of tradition he felt, but also his awareness that this was a tradition that had undergone change. Today his anthems, canticles, psalm chants, mass settings, organ works and hymns enjoy a thriving existence, as is evinced by the profusion of new recordings. The popularity of Howells’s church music is, one might suggest, predicated largely on the sound world. Instantly recognisable, his use of modal counterpoint, novel tonal language and long plainchant-like lines, create a very different atmosphere to any of the established repertoire that preceded it.

  • The Nightingale's Song in and out of Poetry
    ‘Darkling I Listen’: The Nightingale’s Song In and Out of Poetry Catherine Addison Abstract The nightingale is a common non-endangered species of songbird found almost throughout Europe and Asia, where it has from time immemorial been regarded as the maestro of bird composition and performance. It has come to signify not music so much as poetry, especially love poetry and, of course, love itself. Although in fact only the male of the species sings, the mythology surrounding nightingales styles the singer as female; and, although most people listening to the actual sound of nightingale song would describe it as joyful, its cultural meaning is usually tragic. Both the Greek myth of Philomela and the Persian legend of the nightingale in love with the rose underpin the image of a sad female nightingale. This essay examines the nightingale’s appearances in English poetry, both in the traditional sad female role and its occasional joyful male representation, and it tries to account for the anomaly of these two contradictory images while at the same time taking into consideration the actual sounds of the wild bird and their meanings within the larger context of the ecosystem. Key Words: Nightingale, birdsong, bird poetry, Philomela, zoomusicology. Introduction The nightingale, a bird that we do not hear singing in southern Africa, is nevertheless a heavily encoded sign for all of us who speak and read English—as it is for people who participate in almost every other European Alternation 16,2 (2009) 190 - 220 ISSN 1023-1757 190 … The Nightingale’s Song In and Out of Poetry and Asian culture.
