Marlowe's Ovid: The "Elegies" In The Marlowe Canon, M. L. Stapleton
Marlowe's Ovid: The "Elegies" In The Marlowe Canon, M. L. Stapleton
M. L. Stapleton
My study analyzes Marlowe’s translation of Ovid’s _Amores_, the _Elegies_, in the context of his seven known dramatic works and his epyllion, _Hero and Leander_. Recent books and articles by Patrick Cheney, Ian Frederick Moulton, and Georgia E. Brown indicate a transformation in critical thinking about Marlowe’s Elegies. Earlier studies focused on the accuracy of the translation and bibliographic issues, not on the text’s worth as poetry or its importance as a document of cultural history. I engage my predecessors by using Marlowe’s rendition of the Amores as a way to read his seven dramatic productions and his narrative poetry, …

Christopher Marlowe The Craftsman: Lives, Stage, And Page, M. Stapleton
Christopher Marlowe The Craftsman: Lives, Stage, And Page, M. Stapleton
M. L. Stapleton
Contributions to this volume explore the idea of Marlowe as a working artist, in keeping with John Addington Symonds' characterization of him as a "sculptor-poet." Throughout the body of his work-including not only the poems and plays, but also his forays into translation and imitation-a distinguished company of established and emerging literary scholars traces how Marlowe conceives an idea, shapes and refines it, then remakes and remodels it, only to refashion it further in his writing process.
These essays necessarily overlap with one another in the categories of lives, stage, and page, which signals their interdependent nature regarding questions of …

Spenser’S Ovidian Poetics, M. Stapleton
Spenser’S Ovidian Poetics, M. Stapleton
M. L. Stapleton
No history of the longstanding critical tradition of exploring the Spenser-Ovid relationship has been written. In this book Professor Stapleton constructs such a critical history: the annotations of E. K. in The Shepheardes Calender (1579), the Enlightenment editions of The Faerie Queene, the philological mode of the Spenser Variorum (1932-57), and the recent, innovative work of Harry Berger and Colin Burrow. Aside from occasional articles, no truly comprehensive analysis of their kinship as love poets exists, either. The author explores Spenser's emulation of Ovid's amatory poetics. His humanist education trained him to find or construct analogues and etiological patterns in …

Admired And Understood: The Poetry Of Aphra Behn, M. Stapleton
Admired And Understood: The Poetry Of Aphra Behn, M. Stapleton
M. L. Stapleton
Admired and Understood analyzes Behn's only pure verse collection, Poems upon Several Occasions (1684), and situates her in her literary milieu as a poet. Behn's book demonstrates her desire for acceptance in her literary culture, to be "admired and understood," as she puts its, the antitheses of what many surmise from reading her other works--that she saw herself primarily as a guerilla critic of her culture's views on race, class, and gender. The introduction to Admired and Understood argues that her colleagues thought of her as poet first, rather than as a dramatist, reviews current criticism about Behn, and provides …

Fated Sky: The Femina Furens In Shakespeare, M. Stapleton
Fated Sky: The Femina Furens In Shakespeare, M. Stapleton
M. L. Stapleton
Fated Sky reinvestigates the hypothesis of Senecan influence on Shakespeare's plays. It argues that the 1581 Elizabethan anthology, Seneca His Tenne Tragedies, Translated into Englyshe, was Shakespeare's primary sourcetext and medium for his reception, transmission, and imitation of this ancient author.
Thomas Heywood’S “Art Of Love”: The First Complete English Translation Of Ovid’S “Ars Amatoria”; Edited, With Introduction, Notes, And Commentary, M. Stapleton
M. L. Stapleton
Thomas Heywood (ca 1573-1641) was a major Renaissance playwright who wrote or collaborated on over two hundred plays. Loues Schoole was one of his many nondramatic works that shows his fascination with antiquity. It was the standard English translation of the Ars in the seventeenth century, so popular that it was pirated almost as soon as he had written it--then printed, sold, reprinted, and resold in England and the Netherlands. It was not attributed to him during his lifetime, and he was not allowed to share in the profits that its (considerable) sales generated, two things that rankled him for …

Harmful Eloquence: Ovid’S “Amores” From Antiquity To Shakespeare, M. Stapleton
Harmful Eloquence: Ovid’S “Amores” From Antiquity To Shakespeare, M. Stapleton
M. L. Stapleton
"Harmful Eloquence: Ovid's 'Amores' from Antiquity to Shakespeare" traces the influence of the early elegiac poetry of Ovid on European literature from 500-1600 c.e. The Amores served as a classical model for love poetry in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance and were essential to the formation of "fin' Amors, or "courtly love." Medieval Latin poets, the troubadours, Dante, Petrarch, and Shakespeare were all familiar with Ovid in his various forms, and all depended greatly upon his Amores in composing their "cansos, canzoniere, and sonnets. "Harmful Eloquence" begins with a detailed analysis of the Amores themselves and their artistic unity. …
