  • Baudelaire and the Rival of Nature: the Conflict Between Art and Nature in French Landscape Painting
    BAUDELAIRE AND THE RIVAL OF NATURE: THE CONFLICT BETWEEN ART AND NATURE IN FRENCH LANDSCAPE PAINTING _______________________________________________________________ A Thesis Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS _______________________________________________________________ By Juliette Pegram January 2012 _______________________ Dr. Therese Dolan, Thesis Advisor, Department of Art History Tyler School of Art, Temple University ABSTRACT The rise of landscape painting as a dominant genre in nineteenth century France was closely tied to the ongoing debate between Art and Nature. This conflict permeates the writings of poet and art critic Charles Baudelaire. While Baudelaire scholarship has maintained the idea of the poet as a strict anti-naturalist and proponent of the artificial, this paper offers a revision of Baudelaire‟s relation to nature through a close reading across his critical and poetic texts. The Salon reviews of 1845, 1846 and 1859, as well as Baudelaire‟s Journaux Intimes, Les Paradis Artificiels and two poems that deal directly with the subject of landscape, are examined. The aim of this essay is to provoke new insights into the poet‟s complex attitudes toward nature and the art of landscape painting in France during the middle years of the nineteenth century. i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to Dr. Therese Dolan for guiding me back to the subject and writings of Charles Baudelaire. Her patience and words of encouragement about the writing process were invaluable, and I am fortunate to have had the opportunity for such a wonderful writer to edit and review my work. I would like to thank Dr.

For commercial re-use, please refer to our website at: www.euppublishing.com/customer-services/authors/permissions. www.euppublishing.com/ccs From Eastern Love to Eastern Song: Re-translating Asian Poetry FRANCESCA ORSINI Abstract: This essay explores the loop of translations and re-translations of ‘Eastern poetry’ from Asia into Europe and back into (South) Asia at the hands of ‘Oriental translators’, translators of poetry who typically used existing translations as their original texts for their ambitious and voluminous enterprises. If ‘Eastern’ stood in all cases for a kind of exotic (in the etymological sense of ‘from the outside’) poetic exploration, for Adolphe Thalasso in French and E. Powys Mathers in English, Eastern love poetry could shade into prurient ethno-eroticism. For the Urdu poet and translator Miraji, instead, what counted in Eastern poetry was oral, rhythmic and visual richness – song. Keywords: Orientalism, poetry, translation, lyric In the century and a half between William Jones’ Poems Consisting Chiefly of Translations from the Asiatick Languages in 1772 and Ezra Pound’s 1915 ‘removal’ of ‘the crust of dead English’ from his ‘translation’ of Chinese poetry in Cathay, Oriental or Eastern poetry translations, particularly of classical poetry, became a mainstay of European print culture at all levels, as the contributions to this special issue show (particularly Burney, Italia, and Bubb).1 In Britain, the culture of translation was profoundly changed by this expansion of translation beyond the tradition of English or European literature.

Focusing on the institutions and practices that mediate this exchange, I show how American and French poets take up, challenge or respond to shifts in the poetic field tied to new cross-cultural networks of circulation. In so doing, I also demonstrate how poets imagine and realize a diverse set of competing publics. This work is divided into three chapters. After analyzing in my introduction the web of poets and institutions that have enabled and sustained this exchange, I show in my first chapter how collaborations between writers and translators have greatly impacted recent poetry in a case study of two American works: Andrew Zawack’s Georgia (2009) and Bill Luoma’s My Trip to New York City (1994).

  • Poetic Rhyme Reflects Cross-Linguistic Differences In
    Poetic Rhyme Reflects Cross-Linguistic Differences in Information Structure$ Michael Wagnera,∗, Katherine McCurdyb aMcGill University bHarvard University Abstract Identical rhymes (right/write) are considered satisfactory and even artistic in French poetry but are considered unsatisfactory in English. This has been a con- sistent generalization over the course of centuries, a surprising fact given that other aspects of poetic form in French were happily applied in English. This paper puts forward the hypothesis that this difference is not merely one of poetic tradition, but is grounded in the distinct ways in which information-structure affects prosody in the two languages. A study of rhyme usage in poetry and a perception experi- ment confirm that native speakers’ intuitions about rhyming in the two languages indeed differ, and a further perception experiment supports the hypothesis that this fact is due to a constraint on prosody that is active in English but not in French. The findings suggest that certain forms of artistic expression in poetry are influenced, and even constrained, by more general properties of a language. Keywords: rhyme, information structure, focus, givenness, poetry $This research was supported by FQRSC Grant NP-132516: La prosodie: production, perception et diff´erences interlinguistiques; and a Canada Research Chair in Speech and Language Processing (Grant 212482).

    H-France Review Volume 21 (2021) Page 1 H-France Review Vol. 21 (April 2021), No. 63 Sam Bootle, Laforgue, Philosophy, and Ideas of Otherness. Cambridge: Legenda, 2018. 169 pp. Notes, bibliography, and index. £75.00/$99.00 U.S. (hb). ISBN: 9781781886472. Review by Renaud Lejosne-Guigon, independent researcher. Until well into the twentieth century, Jules Laforgue was more widely read in the English- speaking world than in France. Even as he was scorned by Apollinaire and his friends, later loathed by the surrealists, and even stripped of his role in the invention of modern prosody [1], overseas Laforgue was becoming a critical figure for such writers as Eliot, Pound, and Hart Crane, as well as Joyce and Beckett. This interest in the poet extended to scholarship, and a number of important studies on Laforgue published during the second half of the last century came from the Anglo-Saxon world (W. Ramsey, J. A. Hiddleston, P. Collier).[2] In recent years, Laforgue seems to have become somewhat less central a figure in American and British academia, and despite the existence of significant contributions to Laforgue studies written in English in the past two decades (J. Forrest, R. Pearson, C. White),[3] Sam Bootle’s Laforgue, Philosophy, and Ideas of Otherness is the first monograph on the poet to appear in that language since Anne Holmes’s excellent Jules Laforgue and Poetic Innovation in 1993.[4] As its title indicates, the book sets out to elucidate the status of “philosophy” in Laforgue’s work. Contrary to claims made by some Laforguian scholars in the past, Bootle contends that philosophy is not a mere “tone” (“un registre,” as Philippe Bonnefis has it [quoted p.

Michael Bishop has written extensively and well on some of the best of mid and late twentieth-century French poets--Char, Deguy, Jaccottet-and in this volume turns his attention to a thematic consideration of the major practitioners of the last century. The results are somewhat mixed. On the one hand, just about everyone is included whom one would expect to find (Lamartine, Vigny, Baudelaire, Hugo, MallarmC, Verlaine, Rimbaud, LautrCamont, Laforgue; Desbordes-Valmoreis present, Musset is not). More- over, Bishop has read through the a?uvre of each poet, so his perceptive observations pertain not only to familiar poems but also to some that have the merit of being less so.

  • Geoffrey Chaucer and Oton De Granson
    THE FRENCH CONNECTION: GEOFFREY CHAUCER AND OTON DE GRANSON by R. D. PERRY (Under the Direction of Andrew Cole) ABSTRACT Geoffrey Chaucer’s relationship with Oton de Granson is one that collapses any real distinction between influence and reception. By focusing on Chaucer’s early works, including his possible French poems, known as the “Ch” poems, this thesis uncovers the role that Granson played in introducing Chaucer to a French poetic tradition and in shaping how Chaucer responded to that tradition. Chaucer, in turn, by translating and satirizing some of Granson’s work in The Complaint of Venus , influenced the way in which Granson and his contemporaries understood their own poetic projects. By focusing on manuscript transmission and personal interactions, I argue for a kind of reception history that emphasizes local and material conditions in order to understand literary influence, suggesting that kind of historical understanding discloses Chaucer’s dual role in both being influenced by and influencing the French poetic tradition.

  • Death at First Sight: the Duality of Love in Thibaut De Champagne and Ibn Quzman
    Death at First Sight: The Duality of Love in Thibaut de Champagne and Ibn Quzman Kevin Blankinship A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of English and Comparative Literature Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by : Sahar Amer Carl Ernst Jessica Wolfe Abstract Kevin Blankinship Death at First Sight: The Duality of Love in Thibaut de Champagne and Ibn Quzman (Under the direction of Sahar Amer) This study compares between the secular love poetry of thirteenth-century trouvère Thibaut de Champagne and twelfth-century Andalusian author Ibn Quzman. Both poets portray passion as binary, since it incites both joy and pain. Their individual meditations on the duality of love focus especially on visual contemplation of beauty as the impetus to love. However, the effects of seeing beauty, like courtly love itself, are also binary. Both Thibaut de Champagne and Ibn Quzman attempt to deal with this optical paradox through the idealization of human passion: each poet sets up the beloved as an object of worship. In Thibaut, this appears as an ennobling, courtly love religion; while Ibn Quzman’s visual considerations of beauty end up in sensual flesh worship. Without a way to settle the tension between joy and grief of profane love, the poet finally succumbs to passion in martyrdom; such a fate is seen in Thibaut and Ibn Quzman not only as inevitable, but also desirable. ii Table of Contents I.
