  • DECAMERON Packet by Columbia Ayyyyyyy (Will Alston, Rafael Krichevsky, Aayush Rajasekaran, Gerhardt Hinkle)
    DECAMERON Packet by Columbia Ayyyyyyy (Will Alston, Rafael Krichevsky, Aayush Rajasekaran, Gerhardt Hinkle) A biography titled for this concept opens by declaring that, to understand how its subject used “imagination to transform his life into his art,” the reader must use their own imagination as well. A poem remarks to a woman that her version of this concept is “large and spacious,” for she has this concept “to boot” and “in overplus,” and opens by saying “Whoever hath her wish, thou hast” [this concept]. The chapter “The Triumph of the Everyday” concludes a New Historicist biography of the son of a glove-maker, which was titled for this concept by its author (*) Stephen Greenblatt. That biography’s subject wrote many sonnets punning on the similarity between the name of this concept and his own first name, and frequently collaborated with a different man with this name whose surname was Kempe. For 10 points, give the shortened form of the first name of the author of the “Fair Youth” and “Dark Lady” sonnets. ANSWER: Will [accept Will in the World; prompt on William] <Poetry, WA> A namesake theory about this phenomenon describes how people use “on-record” and “off-record” strategies to perform FTAs. Methods of classifying this phenomenon in one country’s school textbooks employ a five- category classification for how it is presented, such as via the use of bikago.
