    Magical Objects in Victorian Literature: Enchantment, Narrative Imagination, and the Power of Things By Dan Fang Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in English August, 2015 Nashville, Tennessee Approved: Jay Clayton, Ph.D. Rachel Teukolsky, Ph.D. Jonathan Lamb, Ph.D. Carolyn Dever, Ph.D. Elaine Freedgood, Ph.D. For lao-ye, who taught me how to learn ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the Martha Rivers Ingram Fellowship, which funded my last year of dissertation writing. My thanks go to Mark Wollaeger, Dana Nelson, the English Department, and the Graduates School for the Fellowship and other generous grants. My ideas were shaped by each and every professor with whom I have ever taken a class—in particular, Jonathan Lamb who was a large part of the inception of a project about things and who remained an unending font of knowledge through its completion. I want to thank Carolyn Dever for making me reflect upon my writing process and my mental state, not just the words on the page, and Elaine Freedgood for being an amazingly generous reader who never gave up on pushing me to be more rigorous. Most of all, my gratitude goes to Rachel Teukolsky and Jay Clayton for being the best dissertation directors I could ever imagine having. Rachel has molded both my arguments and my prose from the very first piece on Aladdin’s lamp, in addition to providing thoughtful advice about the experience of being in graduate school and beyond.

  • The Mandrake and the Ancient World,” the Evangelical Quarterly 28.2 (1956): 87-92
    R.K. Harrison, “The Mandrake And The Ancient World,” The Evangelical Quarterly 28.2 (1956): 87-92. The Mandrake and the Ancient World R.K. Harrison [p.87] Professor Harrison, of the Department of Old Testament in Huron College, University of Western Ontario, has already shown by articles in THE EVANGELICAL QUARTERLY his interest and competence in the natural history of the Bible. Here he examines one of the more curious Biblical plants. The mandrake is one of the plants which still grows widely in the Middle East, and which has claimed magical associations from a very remote period. It is generally assigned the botanical name of Mandragora officinarum L..1 and is a perennial of the order Solanaceae. It claims affinity with the potato and eggplant, and is closely allied to the Atropa belladonna L.,2 with which it is not infrequently confused by some writers. The modern Arab knows it by a number of names, including Tuffah£ el Majanin (‘Madmen’s Apple) and Beid el Jinn (Eggs of the Jinn), apparently a reference to the ability of the plant to invigorate and stimulate the senses even to the point of mental imbalance. The former name may perhaps be a survival of the belief found in Oriental folk-lore regarding the magical herb Baaras, with which the mandrake is identified by some authorities.3 According to the legends associated with this plant, it was highly esteemed amongst the ancients on account of its pronounced magical properties. But because of the potency of these attributes it was an extremely hazardous undertaking for anyone to gather the plant, and many who attempted it were supposed to have paid for their daring with [p.88] sickness and death.4 Once the herb had been gathered, however, it availed for a number of diseases, and in antiquity it was most reputed for its ability to cure depression and general disorders of the mind.

COTTON MATHER’S WONDERS OF THE INVISIBLE WORLD: AN AUTHORITATIVE EDITION by PAUL M. WISE Under the direction of Reiner Smolinski ABSTRACT In Wonders of the Invisible World, Cotton Mather applies both his views on witchcraft and his millennial calculations to events at Salem in 1692. Although this infamous treatise served as the official chronicle and apologia of the 1692 witch trials, and excerpts from Wonders of the Invisible World are widely anthologized, no annotated critical edition of the entire work has appeared since the nineteenth century. This present edition seeks to remedy this lacuna in modern scholarship, presenting Mather’s seventeenth-century text next to an integrated theory of the natural causes of the Salem witch panic. The likely causes of Salem’s bewitchment, viewed alongside Mather’s implausible explanations, expose his disingenuousness in writing about Salem. Chapter one of my introduction posits the probability that a group of conspirators, led by the Rev.

  • The Song of Songs
    ^g*W OF PBI/VCf^js Logical sttt^ BS <T5Z\ THE SONG OF SONGS. THE SONG OF SONGS A REVISED TRANSLATION WITH INTRODUCTION AND COMMENTARY. BY JOSEPH FRANCIS THRUPP, M.A. VICAR OF BARRINGTON, LATE FELLOW OF TRINITY COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE, AUTHOR OF "AN INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY AND USE OF THE PSALMS'* &c. MACMILLAN AND CO. ©am&rfoge attD Eontion. 1862. : Cautbribge PRINTED BY C. J. CLAY, M.A. AT THE UNIVERSITY PKESS. PREFACE. The object of this volume is to unfold the meaning of one of the least appreciated portions of Holy Scrip- ture. It is hoped that neither the necessary references to the original Hebrew, nor the discussion, which can be passed over at pleasure, of the principal counter-theories of interpretation, will render it less acceptable to the majority of readers. It seemed undesirable, in the interest of the truth, to leave room for suspicion that the traditional interpretation of tire Song, howsoever it might have ministered to the edification of nearly fifty generations of Christians, would not be borne out by the results of the investigations of modern scholarship. I have therefore sought throughout to build on the surest attainable foundation. That I have written to the best of my own judgment, not defending received VI PREFACE. opinions simply because they were received, the open- ing section of the Introduction will shew. But as it is in reference to the manner in which the Song should be interpreted that the authority of the general consent of the Christian Church will carry most weight, so also am I firmly persuaded that the conclusions of sober criticism will here be found to accord with the traditions of Christian teaching; and that the more closely the Song be examined, the less compatible will its language and structure prove with any other theme than that of the mutual love of the Incarnate Son of God and his redeemed Church.

  • Iconography of the Solanaceae from Antiquity to the Xviith Century: a Rich Source of Information on Genetic Diversity and Uses
    Iconography of the Solanaceae from Antiquity to the XVIIth Century: a Rich Source of Information on Genetic Diversity and Uses Marie-Christine Daunay and Henri Laterrot Jules Janick INRA, Unité de Génétique & Amélioration Department of Horticulture des Fruits et Légumes Landscape Architecture Domaine St. Maurice, BP 94 Purdue University 84143 Montfavet cedex 625 Agriculture Mall Drive France West Lafayette, IN 47907–2010 USA Keywords: alkekenge, belladonna, capsicum pepper, datura, eggplant, henbane, husk tomato, mandrake, nightshades, potato, tobacco, tomato, Renaissance herbals Abstract The systematic study of solanaceous plant iconography has been a neglected source of information although historical records (ceramics, painted and printed images in manuscripts, and printed documents) are numerous. Many wild and domesticated solanaceous species have been associated with human culture from antiquity, as medicinal, ritual or magical herbs and/or food crops in the Old World (alkekenge, belladonna, eggplant, henbane, mandrake) and New World (capsicum pepper, datura, husk tomato, potato, tobacco, tomato). Mandrake (Mandragora spp.) images can be found in Egyptian sources in the second millennium BCE, and along with alkekenge (Physalis alkekengi) and black nightshade (Solanum nigrum aff.) are found in the oldest extant copy of the Materia Medica of Dioscorides (Codex Vindobonensis, Aniciae Julianae, 512 CE), as well as in many later Medieval and Renaissance sources. Images of henbane (Hyocyamus spp.) appears in the VIIIth century while belladonna (Atropa belladonna) first appears in the Renaissance. Images of eggplant (Solanum melongena), an Asian crop, are found in Asian and European manuscripts from the XIVth century onwards. Images of New World species are present in pre-Columbian sources, attesting to their wide use by native populations.

  • The Mandrake Plant and Its Legend
    !is volume is dedicated to Carole P. Biggam, Honorary Senior Research Fellow and Visiting Lecturer at the University of Glasgow, who by the foundation of the Anglo-Saxon Plant- Name Survey, decisively revived the interest in Old English plant-names and thus motivated us to organize the Second Symposium of the ASPNS at Graz University. “What's in a name? !at which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet …” Shakespeare, Rome and Juliet, II,ii,1-2. Old Names – New Growth 9 PREFACE Whereas the "rst symposium of the ASPNS included examples of research from many disciplines such as landscape history, place-name studies, botany, art history, the history of food and medicine and linguistic approaches, the second symposium had a slightly di#erent focus because in the year 2006 I had, together with my colleague Hans Sauer, started the project 'Digital and Printed Dictionary of Old English Plan-Names'. !erefore we wanted to concentrate on aspects relevant to the project, i.e. mainly on lexicographic and linguistic ma$ers. Together with conferences held more or less simultaneously to mark the occasion of the 300th anniversary of Linnaeus' birthday in Sweden, this resulted in fewer contributors than at the "rst symposium. As a consequence the present volume in its second part also contains three contributions which are related to the topic but were not presented at the conference: the semantic study by Ulrike Krischke, the interdisciplinary article on the mandragora (Anne Van Arsdall/Helmut W. Klug/Paul Blanz) and - for 'nostalgic' reasons - a translation of my "rst article (published in 1973) on the Old English plant-name fornetes folm.

  • Mandrake Mandragora Officinarum
    Mandrake Mandragora officinarum Nicole Stivers Mandrake Family: Solanaceae or the nightshades family. There are approximately 98 genera and 2700 species. Genus: Mandragora Species: officinarum Common Names: mandrake, mandragora, Satan’s apple, testes of the demon, man’s plant, witch’s drink Relatives: potato, tomato, eggplant, belladonna, chili pepper, bell pepper, tobacco plant Geography of Cultivation Mandrake is native to the Mediterranean, particularly northern Italy, Croatia, and Slovenia. The plant remains in this region. Since the plant is not desired by most, cultivation in other regions is due to religious and superstitious reasons. Morphological Description Mandrake is a variable perennial herbaceous plant with a long thick root, often branched. It has almost no stem, and the elliptical or obovate leaves that vary in length are borne in a basal rosette. The flowers appear from autumn to spring. They are greenish white to blue or violet. The fruit forms in late autumn to early summer. The berry is yellow or orange and resembles a tomato. The mandrake is poisonous, especially the roots and leaves. This is due to tropane alkaloids that are present. Features of Cultivation Mandrake is hardy in USDA zones 6-8. It prefers a deep, rich soil. The roots will rot in poorly drained or clay soil. Full sun or partial shade is preferred. It takes about two years for the plant to become established and set fruit, and during this time the soil needs to be well-watered. Plant Uses They have been associated with a variety of superstitious practices, such as magic rituals. Modern pagan religions, such as Wicca and Odinism, also use mandrake in their practices.

  • Song of Songs - Rev
    1 Commentary to the Song of Songs - Rev. John Schultz The Song of the Lamb Introduction: Most of the introductory remarks are gleaned from The Tyndale Old Testament Commentary The Song of Solomon by G. Lloyd Carr.

Expressions of Mutual Love 1:9-2:7 3. Visit of the King to the Bride’s Home 2:8-17 4. Bride’s Dream of Separation 3:1-5 B. United in Love 3:6-5:1 1. Wedding Procession 3:6-11 2. Bride’s Beauty Is Praised 4:1-15 3. The Marriage Is Consummated 4:16-5:1 II. Broadening of Love 5:2-8:14 A. Struggling in Love 5:2-7:10 1. Bride’s Second Dream of Separation 5:2-7 2. Bridegroom’s Handsomeness Is Praised 5:8-6:3 3. Bride’s Beauty Is Praised 6:4-7:10 B. Growing in Love 7:11-8:14 1. Bride’s Desire to Visit Her Home 7:11-8:4 A very interesting outline as the one given in Dr. Richard C. Moulton’s A Suite of Seven Idyls, as quoted in Sidlow Baxter’s book Exploring the Book. Baxter writes that the word “Idyll” comes from the Greek eidullion, which means “little picture.” Moulton sees the Song of Solomon as a poem that reminisces about the events that took place in the past.

    In Enchantment is All About Us Beatrice Walditchreveals that much of the what we often think of a real in the modern world is an enchantment woven by profit-driven businesses and nefarious politicians. Drawing upon a wide range of traditional worldviews, she sets out ways of mentally ‘banishing’ such pervasive enchantments and empowering the reader to create their own enchantments. Many of the suggestions develop and weave together ideas discussed in her previous books. Enchantment is All About Us is the fifth book in the Living in a Magical World series. These books will challenge you to recognisethe traditional magic still alive in modern society, and empower you with a variety of skills and insights.
