Montaigne's "De L'Amitié" And The Problem Of Communication, Camilla J. Nilles
Montaigne's "De L'Amitié" And The Problem Of Communication, Camilla J. Nilles
Quidditas
In the world of change and becoming revealed by Montaigne's Essais, his friendship with La Boétie stands out as an island of firmness and stability. Montaigne never questions the perfection of their relationship, nor have his readers doubted Montaigne's sincerity. They have taken Montaigne at his word in part because so little is actually known about the two friends' relations, but primarily because La Boétie's friendship is not nearly as important to Montaigne studies as La Boétie's death.
The Elizabethan Diplomatic Service, F. Jeffrey Platt
The Elizabethan Diplomatic Service, F. Jeffrey Platt
Quidditas
The critical early years of Elizabeth's reign witnessed a watershed in European history. The 1559 Treaty of Cateau-Cambrésis, which ended the long Hapsburg-Valois conflict, resulted in a sudden shift in the focus of international politics from Italy to the uncomfortable proximity of the Low Countries. The arrival there, 30 miles from England's coast, in 1567, of thousands of seasoned Spanish troops presented a military and commercial threat the English queen could not ignore. Moreover, French control of Calais and their growing interest in supplanting the Spanish presence in the Netherlands represented n even greater menace to England's security. Combined with …
Dreams, Stress, And Interpretation In Chaucer And His Contemporaries, David G. Hale
Dreams, Stress, And Interpretation In Chaucer And His Contemporaries, David G. Hale
Quidditas
As is well known, dreams are important components of many works of medieval literature. one or more dreams can be the subject of most of a poem, as in the Roman de la Rose, Pearl, Piers Plowman, the Book of the Duchess, and the House of Fame. Or one or more dreams can be a relatively small yet important part of a work; Dante's Vita nuova and Purgatorio are familiar examples, as are Chaucer's Nun's Priest's Tale, Knight's Tale, and Troilus and Criseyde. In many cases the transitions into or out of these dreams …
Shakespeare's Romance Of Knowing, Maurice Hunt
Shakespeare's Romance Of Knowing, Maurice Hunt
Quidditas
From time to time literary critics have claimed that Shakespeare's undisputed last plays—Cymbeline, The Winter's Tale, and The Tempest—are, to varying degrees, concerned with the main characters' learning experiences. These claim range, for example, from Stephen Orgel's aargument that adversity schools Alonso and Prospero in humility to Northrop Frye's assertion that education provides the means for the protagonists of the last plays to recover some sort of paradise. In other words, critics over the years have claimed in different ways that the last plays are either educational or epistemological romances. And yet no one, to my …

What The Gardener Knew: Pruning And Power In The Troublesome Raigne Of King John And Richard Ii, Dorothea Kehler
What The Gardener Knew: Pruning And Power In The Troublesome Raigne Of King John And Richard Ii, Dorothea Kehler
Quidditas
Lack of knowledge is a chief concern of Richard II. Throughout, whaat the audience knows is provocatively matched or exceeded by what it does not know. Information seemingly deferred remains undisclosed in a discourse of permanent deferral. Bolingbroke's purpose in accusing Mowbray, the duration and extent of Bolingbroke's ambition, Richard's reasons for exiling Mobray, Richard's feelings towards him, Richard's sexual predilections, the truth or falsity of Bagot's accusation of Aumerle, York's reasons for demanding Aumerle's death–such questions as these the play refuses to answer. In consequence, from the onset, personal and political motives in Richard II are murky; the …
Sodom And Gomorrah: The Use Of Mandeville's Travels In Cleanness, Liam O. Purdon
Sodom And Gomorrah: The Use Of Mandeville's Travels In Cleanness, Liam O. Purdon
Quidditas
The Pearl-Poet's late fourteenth-century appropriation in Cleanness of a mid-fourteenth century work, Mandeville's Travels, has been an established fact since the publication of Robert J. Menner's edition of the poem. The poet uses the Travels as a source for two important episodes: the description of Sodom and Gomorrah's cataclysmic destruction and the description of Belshazzar's brief and idolatrous reign in Babylon. While many points of connection between the Travels and Cleanness in the Sodom and Gomorrah episode have been identified, the poet's dependence on Mandeville in this scene raises two questions that have not yet been satisfactorily answered. …

Natural Law And Chaucer's Physician's Tale, Jay Ruud
Natural Law And Chaucer's Physician's Tale, Jay Ruud
Quidditas
Of all the Canterbury Tales, the Physician's Tale may well be the least appreciated. Its subject matter is distasteful in itself–a despicable judge abuses his position of public trust and authority by deliberately setting out to obtain an innocent young virgin as an object of lust, while too frustrate the even the victim's father beheads her after cold-blooded premeditation. But if that were not enough, the tale contains at least two apparently incongruous digressions, and the storyteller appends a moral that must make the reader suspect the Narrator has not been listening to his own story. Perhaps a modern …
