SEPOLCRO - Q Sig. &flustriſ, - Appena deliberammo di compilare l' Almanacco 4resino per prossimo Anno 1839., noi nºn polemino rion ravvisare la necesſità di apporvi in fronte un Nome illustre, il quale cel raccomandasse presso il Pubblico. Ora, come questa Operetta è spe cialmente consecrata ad illustrare il Compartimento Aretino, così non poteva cader dubbio sulla scelta di quel Nome, ed a Voi volgemmo il pensiero, a Voi che si meritamente e con tanto amore sopraintendete ad una delle Comunità nell' Aretino Compartimento comprese, la quale sovra le altre distinguesi per esten sione, per industria e più pe' chiari ingeghi ghè vi ebberº cuna, a Voi in fine che della Toscana Pastorizia in ispecie siete:sì benemerito. Supplichiamo: pertanto l' usata vo stra gentilezza a volere accogliere con serena fronte quest' umile attestato dell'alta stima in che vi tenghiamo, mentre col più profondo ossequio ab biamo l'onore di protestarci Arezzo; 2o. Novembre 1838. Vostri Devotiss. Obbligatiss. Servitori 3 (Iompilatori 19 reta3ione C, è forza ripeterlo. Nel compi lare la presente Operetta, noi ci siamo proposti d'illustrare il Compartimento Aretino, secoudo che le povere nostre forze cel consentono. Questo scopo presenta egli o nò una qualche utilità? – Noi non temiamo di andare errati, se risponderemo che sì, essendo omai opinione di tutti i Dotti, che una completa Istoria iielia Penisola nostra mancherà, finchè non si saranno illustrati i diversi Municipi di quella. Ad ogni modo, siamo d'avviso che allorquando alcuno si fa a render con to di un'Opera, debba occuparsi di tutto ciò che v' è, e non di tutto ciò che non v' è. Ciò premesso, noi raccomandiamo al colto Pubblico ed ai nostri Concit tadini in ispecie l'accennata Operetta, senza pretensione sì, ma con retta in tenzione dettata. ：： -7-5. aer ſºſ ± − × ≤ ≤ ------ =1 ！ |-|- ---- |- |-• |- ---- • • • • •---- • • → • • • • • • • • • • •:º: … • • • • |- • • •• • • （* •• •---- •• • • • • 5 •• · • • • • • • .• • • • • ..3 º• •• • •• • |-…• • |- • • • • • • •… : • •• • • • • • • • •• ... • • • •· • • • •|-... • • •• •|- ！ ..” -----· ... • • • • ••---- , ， * • • • • • • sº ！ - • -- · ，|- ·|- cALENDARIO PER L'ANNO 1839. –nº6934 - 360 Computo Ecclesiastico Quattro Tempi Numero d' oro . 16.

  • THE PERFORMATIVE BYRON: THEATRICAL PRODUCTIONS in VICTORIAN ENGLAND by LIRIM NEZIROSKI (Under the Direction of Nelson Hilton)
    THE PERFORMATIVE BYRON: THEATRICAL PRODUCTIONS IN VICTORIAN ENGLAND by LIRIM NEZIROSKI (Under the Direction of Nelson Hilton) ABSTRACT This dissertation presents a study of Lord Byron’s historical dramas (Marino Faliero, The Two Foscari, Sardanapalus, and Werner) alongside the performative aesthetics of Don Juan, and it uses performance theory as a hermeneutic for examining this relationship. It provides a literary analysis of some neglected works and important issues in Byron’s writings, it explores the legacy of Byron in the nineteenth-century theater, and it tests the limits of current scholarship on Romantic drama. The dissertation brings together a large amount of scholarship and provides a new perspective on Byron, Romantic drama, and the Victorian theater. INDEX WORDS: Lord Byron, Romanticism, Romantic drama, nineteenth-century theater, Don Juan, Marino Faliero, Sardanapalus, The Two Foscari, Werner, Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage, Beppo, Manfred, performance, Percy Shelley, William Charles Macready, Helen Faucit, Charles Kean, Samuel Phelps.

Kiernan, M.D., 1891 Una nuova coscienza si formò in lui: tutta la tela di un passato mai conosciuto si distese d’innanzi a suoi occhi: delle memorie pure e soavi di cui egli non poteva aver fecondata la sua vita vennero a turbare dolcemente la sua anima. Erano memorie di un primo amore, di una prima colpa; ma di un amore più gentile e più elevato che egli non avesse sentito, di una colpa più dolce e più generosa che egli non avesse commesso.

  • Byron and Moore, 1811-1824
    1 THE CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN BYRON AND THOMAS MOORE, 1811-1824 Edited by Peter Cochran, with much welcome assistance from Jeffery Vail. Updated June 9th 2012. This correspondence is unique in that most of Byron’s letters to Moore have been lost. They seem to have disappeared some time during the 1840s, and we have to rely on the censored transcriptions which Moore made of them for his 1830 / 1 Life of Byron (for the sole exception, see this edition’s final item). William St Clair argues ( The Temptations of a Biographer: Thomas Moore and Byron, Byron Journal 17, 1989, pp.50-6), that Moore’s texts show signs of having been both cut and added to, with a view to increasing the affection and literary regard for him which Byron expresses. Jeffery W. Vail (The Literary Relationship of Lord Byron and Thomas Moore , Johns Hopkins 2001, pp.195-8), argues against this thesis. In his Life , Moore indicated his major cuts by asterisks, but didn’t mark his additions (if such there be) at all. See the two versions of Byron to Moore, July 10th 1817, below. Conversely, at least fifty-one letters from Moore to Byron are missing. Two previously unknown and unsuspected ones are those of July 11th 1813, and July 8th 1822. To give some idea of Tom Moore’s personality, and the way he charmed even the most tight-lipped, here is an extract from Hobhouse’s diary, September 1818. The place is Sir Francis Burdett’s estate at Ramsbury in Wiltshire: [Commentary :] Tom Moore turns up! He sings, records the disdainful Hobhouse, “one or two of his own songs in his own peculiar style”.

  • Venice, Childe Harold IV and Beppo, July 30Th 1817-January 7Th 1818
    116 Venice, Childe Harold IV and Beppo, July 30th 1817-January 7th 1818 Venice, 1817 July 30th 1817-January 7th 1818 Edited from B.L.Add.Mss. 47234. In the notes, “J.W.” indicates assistance from Jack Wasserman, to whom I’m most grateful. Hobhouse has been on a tour of Italy since December 5th 1816, and hasn’t seen Byron – who’s just moved from Venice to La Mira – since Byron left Rome on May 20th. For the next five-and-a-half months he’s with Byron in Venice and the surrounding area. Byron is for the most part polishing Childe Harold IV, and Hobhouse takes upon himself the task of annotating it. The truly significant event, however – which neither man fully understands, and Hobhouse never will – is when Byron, having read Hookham Frere’s Whistlecraft, suddenly composes Beppo on October 9th. Venice is held by Austria, which is systematically running down its economy so that the poor are reduced to eating grass. Hobhouse glances at the state of the place from time to time. His terribly British account of the circumcision ceremony on August 2nd implies much about what Byron found fascinating about the city – though Byron would never put such feelings into explicit prose. Wednesday July 30th 1817: I got up at four – set off half past five, and, crossing the Po, went to Rovigo, three posts and a half. A long tedious drive, in flats. From Rovigo I went to Padua without going five miles out of my way to see Arquà in the Euganean Hills – Petrarch’s tranquil place – it was too hot – the thermometer at eighty-three in the shade.

  • This Is an Original Manuscript/Preprint of An
    1 This is an original manuscript/preprint of an article published by Taylor & Francis in European Romantic Review 30 (2019), available online: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10509585.2019.1612570. “[T]he accents of an unknown land”: Percy Bysshe Shelley’s Writings in Italian Valentina Varinelli* School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK Abstract Shelley scholars have largely overlooked the poet’s verse and prose writings in Italian— originals and (self-)translations—on the assumption that they were written solely for Teresa “Emilia” Viviani, the dedicatee of Epipsychidion (1821), and have thus reduced them to a by- product of Shelley’s brief infatuation with the young girl. Such a reading does not account for the complexity of these writings, which are by no means distinct from Shelley’s contemporary production, and indeed can help to elucidate his ongoing theoretical reflections on language and translation. Nor can a purely biographical approach provide a rationale for the unusualness of a poet composing in and translating himself into a foreign language. But why did Shelley actually do so? What did he intend to do with his writings in Italian? And what is their place in Shelley’s canon? Percy Bysshe Shelley’s writings in Italian constitute a small but by no means insignificant corpus, which so far has received limited scholarly attention. It includes Shelley’s translations from a number of his poems as well as original verse and prose compositions. Many of these writings have survived only in draft form. None of them were published in the poet’s lifetime.

  • Milan, October 11Th-November 3Rd 1816
    222 Milan, October 11th-November 3rd 1816 Milan October 11th-November 3rd 1816 Edited from B.L.Add.Mss. 56537 Their twenty-three days in Milan are formative for Byron and Hobhouse in a number of ways. Firstly, they meet nearly every man of literary note in North Italy – exceptions being the absent Ugo Foscolo, and Alessandro Manzoni; secondly, they find themselves – Hobhouse especially – taken seriously as political writers in a way to which they’re unused; thirdly, they come to know at first hand what it’s like for intellectuals to live under a whole-heartedly totalitarian regime, as opposed to a half-hearted one of the kind they know in England. Byron’s interest in the Italian struggle for freedom, expressed the following year in Childe Harold IV, and in his Carbonari activities at Ravenna in the years following, surely has its roots in these three weeks. Hobhouse’s admiration for the classical learning displayed by common Italian people at puppet-shows is offset by what he learns about their capacity to be led into mindless mob violence (see October 26 for both these things) and help lay the foundations of his future qualified Westminster radicalism. His need above all is to work out how Italy’s freedom came to be mislaid for her at the Congress of Vienna. The description, on October 25, of the evening spent watching the improvvisatore Sgricci, is one of his droll masterpieces: but Stendhal’s (Henri Beyle’s) anecdotes, on October 23 and 28, of the Russian campaign and the retreat from Moscow, have some memorable details too.

  • The Aesthetics of Madame De Staël and Mary Shelley
    Université de Montréal The Aesthetics of Madame de Staël and Mary Shelley Maria Mouratidis Département d’études anglaises, Faculté des Arts et Sciences Thèse présentée à la Faculté des Arts et des Sciences en vue de l’obtention du grade de Doctorat en Études anglaises. Décembre, 2012 ©, Maria Mouratidis, 2012 Résumé L’esthétique de Madame de Staël and Mary Shelley discute l’art de l’improvisation et le concept de l’enthousiasme dans les écrits de ces deux auteurs. Dans ce projet, j’explore l’esthétique d’improvisation et d’enthousiasme de Madame de Staël dans Corinne, en me référant à son autre roman Delphine, à sa pièce de théâtre Sapho, et à ses nouvelles ainsi qu’à ses textes philosophiques comme De l’Allemagne, De l’influence des passions, et De la littérature. J’argumente que Madame de Staël représente à travers le caractère de Corinne une esthétique anti-utilitaire. J’explique qu’elle évoque des valeurs cosmopolites qui valorisent une culture indigène qui est en opposition avec l’impérialisme de Napoléon. De plus, j’examine comment les improvisations de Corinne dérivent d’un enthousiasme qui est associé à la définition que Platon offre du terme. Ceci est évident par la signification que Madame de Staël présente du terme dans De L’Allemagne. J’interprète la maladie de Corinne comme étant d’origine psychosomatique qui est manifesté par la perte de son génie et par un suicide lent qui est une expression de colère contre la patriarchie. Le caractère de Corinne permet à Madame de Staël d’explorer le conflit que les femmes artistes éprouvaient entre ayant une carrière artistique et adhérant à l’idéologie domestique.
