For sonnets from The House of Life sequence I use the 1881 first edition because it offers a more comprehensive rendering of the sonnet sequence than is available in Poems (1870) and whilst Jerome McGann’s edited edition oscillates between the former and later versions, selecting variants as ‘“Reading texts”’1 he does so in order to convey his chosen interpretation of the poem. I have opted, generally, to use Jan Marsh’s Collected Writings, supplementing (where appropriate) from Rossetti’s originally published editions in cases where textual variations are significant or require referencing. For Dante’s Commedia I have chosen to make use of the dual English- Italian translated edition by Robert Durling and Ronald Martinez because I am mindful that Rossetti would have read the Commedia in its original Italian. As such, I will make reference to both the English translation and the original Italian text of the Commedia, especially in the first instance but without repetition. Finally, all biblical references will be taken from the King James Version as this is the version that has had the most pervasive influence on English literature. 1 Jerome McGann, ‘Introduction’, in Collected Poetry and Prose, ed.by Jerome McGann (London: Yale University Press, 2003, p.xxviii-xxix. 1 List of Abbreviations Works (and Collections) of Rossetti BS Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ballads and Sonnets (London: Ellis, 1881).

Evans (HarperOne: New York, NY, 2005). 3 Abstract Dante Gabriel Rossetti was saturated in the poetry of Dante, whose presence in his life was mediated by his father’s lifelong Dante scholarship. This would be a fraught but defining relationship for Rossetti. As William Michael Rossetti would comment in his Memoir: ‘Dante Alighieri was a sort of banshee in the Charlotte Street houses; his shriek audible even to familiarity, but the message of it not scrutinized’.2 It is the contention of this thesis that contrary to prevailing critical assumptions, Rossetti’s understanding of the aesthetics and theology of Dante’s Commedia has been underestimated, and that this understanding informed his own poetry, particularly in its more theological inflections. As such, I argue, Rossetti’s mystical expression can and should be traced back to Rossetti’s exposure to (and sometimes fraught) relationship with the aesthetics and theology of Dante’s Commedia, which is itself formed out of a dialogue with the mystic tradition in both medieval and patristic theology. The mystics who populate Dante’s Paradiso – Augustine, Bonaventure, Bernard of Clairvaux and others – consistently employ an erotic language that reappears in the sonnets of The House of Life, the subjects of Rossetti’s paintings, and in much of his poetry. Rossetti did not encounter this mystical expression exclusively through the Commedia, but undoubtedly its presentation in Dante’s seminal work was a key influence on both Rossetti’s understanding and representation of the soul’s relationship to God, and also of the lover’s analogous relationship with the beloved, from

  • The Harmony of Structure: the Earthly Paradise
    CHAPTER I THE HARMONY OF STRUCTURE: THE EARTHLY PARADISE In the following analysis of The Earthly Paradise I shall try to show first what was Morris's purpose throughout the composition of the work, and secondly, what was his actual achievement, with its significance for English poetry. In bringing together in The Earthly Paradise stories and legends from various cultures and various periods, Morris did not set out to point the contrast between the classical, the medieval and the saga methods, which could have been done only by a strict preservation or reproduction of the methods of each type. He aimed rather at showing the contribution of each tradition to the common literary fund of Western Europe — especially of English literary tradition — as it crystallised towards the end of the Middle Ages, in the time of Chaucer, as he says explicitly himself, if not indeed — as internal evidence may perhaps lead us to conclude — during the century of Caxton and Malory, just after Chaucer's death. In the light of more discriminate modem examination of the Middle Ages, we may incline to think that the atmosphere which Morris evokes in The Earthly Paradise is that of the very end of the Middle Ages, just before Renaissance classicism was to make familiar a different, more scholarly attitude towards classical tra­ dition, and to render less easy the acceptance of popular traditional forms and methods (cf. infra pp. 26-7). Morris was thus deliberately returning to the historical moment at which he considered the national cultural tradition had last existed in a pure form unspoilt by the "pride of pedantry"9 which he judged guilty of divorcing culture from the mass of the nation.

  • Dante's Dream: Rossetti's Reading of the Vita Nuova Through the Lens Of
    Dante’s Dream: Rossetti’s Reading of the Vita Nuova Through the Lens of a Double Translation Chiara Moriconi, La Sapienza Università di Roma Abstract Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s work as an interlinguistic and intersemiotic translator of the Vita Nuova reveals much about his characteristic adaptation of Dante to the new sensibility of Victorian poetry and art. After translating the episode of the dream of Beatrice’s death into English, Rossetti goes on to illustrate it in an early watercolor version (1865), and then in a final monumental oil (1871) which will be closely examined in this article. By focusing on both phases of Rossettian translation this article means to show how Rossetti derives from the Florentine a distinctively Dantesque iconographic repertoire which he then develops into a post-Romantic set of poetics. It is precisely in the distance between Dante’s poetry and Rossetti’s double works of art that the latter’s understanding of and autonomy from Dante has to be traced. Keywords: Dante Gabriel Rossetti; Dante Alighieri; Vita Nuova; intersemiotic translation; interlinguistic translation; Victorian literature and art; Pathetic Fallacy One of the most crucial episodes of the Vita Nuova is Beatrice’s death as dreamt by Dante. Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s deep love of Dante Alighieri, inherited from his father Gabriele,1 led him to an early reading and translation into English of this chapter of the Florentine’s ‘rubrica ’. He set to illustrate the passage in 1848. The project, however, was soon laid aside and resumed between 1855 and 1857, when the artist made a watercolor of the same episode, Dante’s Dream at the Time of the Death of Beatrice .

    STYLISTIC EVOLUTION OF JAZZ DRUMMER ED BLACKWELL: THE CULTURAL INTERSECTION OF NEW ORLEANS AND WEST AFRICA David J. Schmalenberger Research Project submitted to the College of Creative Arts at West Virginia University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Percussion/World Music Philip Faini, Chair Russell Dean, Ph.D. David Taddie, Ph.D. Christopher Wilkinson, Ph.D. Paschal Younge, Ed.D. Division of Music Morgantown, West Virginia 2000 Keywords: Jazz, Drumset, Blackwell, New Orleans Copyright 2000 David J. Schmalenberger ABSTRACT Stylistic Evolution of Jazz Drummer Ed Blackwell: The Cultural Intersection of New Orleans and West Africa David J. Schmalenberger The two primary functions of a jazz drummer are to maintain a consistent pulse and to support the soloists within the musical group. Throughout the twentieth century, jazz drummers have found creative ways to fulfill or challenge these roles. In the case of Bebop, for example, pioneers Kenny Clarke and Max Roach forged a new drumming style in the 1940’s that was markedly more independent technically, as well as more lyrical in both time-keeping and soloing. The stylistic innovations of Clarke and Roach also helped foster a new attitude: the acceptance of drummers as thoughtful, sensitive musical artists. These developments paved the way for the next generation of jazz drummers, one that would further challenge conventional musical roles in the post-Hard Bop era. One of Max Roach’s most faithful disciples was the New Orleans-born drummer Edward Joseph “Boogie” Blackwell (1929-1992). Ed Blackwell’s playing style at the beginning of his career in the late 1940’s was predominantly influenced by Bebop and the drumming vocabulary of Max Roach.

  • Pre-Raphaelites and the Book
    Pre-Raphaelites and the Book February 17 – August 4, 2013 National Gallery of Art Pre-Raphaelites and the Book Many artists of the Pre-Raphaelite circle were deeply engaged with integrating word and image throughout their lives. John Everett Millais and Edward Burne-Jones were sought-after illustrators, while Dante Gabriel Rossetti devoted himself to poetry and the visual arts in equal measure. Intensely attuned to the visual and the liter- ary, William Morris became a highly regarded poet and, in the last decade of his life, founded the Kelmscott Press to print books “with the hope of producing some which would have a definite claim to beauty.” He designed all aspects of the books — from typefaces and ornamental elements to layouts, where he often incorporated wood- engraved illustrations contributed by Burne-Jones. The works on display here are drawn from the National Gallery of Art Library and from the Mark Samuels Lasner Collection, on loan to the University of Delaware Library. front cover: William Holman Hunt (1827 – 1910), proof print of illustration for “The Lady of Shalott” in Alfred Tennyson, Poems, London: Edward Moxon, 1857, wood engraving, Mark Samuels Lasner Collection, on loan to the University of Delaware Library (9) back cover: Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828 – 1882), proof print of illustration for “The Palace of Art” in Alfred Tennyson, Poems, London: Edward Moxon, 1857, wood engraving, Mark Samuels Lasner Collection, on loan to the University of Delaware Library (10) inside front cover: John Everett Millais, proof print of illustration for “Irene” in Cornhill Magazine, 1862, wood engraving, Mark Samuels Lasner Collection, on loan to the University of Delaware Library (11) Origins of Pre-Raphaelitism 1 Carlo Lasinio (1759 – 1838), Pitture a Fresco del Campo Santo di Pisa, Florence: Presso Molini, Landi e Compagno, 1812, National Gallery of Art Library, A.W.
