The Beginnings Of Poetry, Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

The songs of primitive peoples have received much attention in recent years, especially the songs of the American Indians. An immense amount of material has been collected and made available; and this has been done in a scientific way, with the help of countless phonographic and -other records. Instead of having to rely on the stray testimonies of travellers, explorers, historians, and essayists, the student of primitive poetry has now at his disposal an amount of data unavailable to his predecessors. He need not linger among the fascinating mysteries of roman- tic hypotheses, but can supply himself with the carefully …

Intrusive Nasals In English, Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

A few years ago the present writer directed attention to some instances of intrusive nasals in contemporary speech, American and English, and suggested that in the greater part of these instances associative interference was responsible for the added consonants. The bearing of the material presented on the much discussed topic of Middle English added n, for which many varying explanations have been offered, was also treated. Some further instances, heterogeneous in character, of infixed n, noted since the article cited was printed but reinforcing, it is believed, the position taken there, are these:

The Southwestern Cowboy Songs And The English And Scottish Popular Ballads, Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

Several writers recently have found analogy between the conditions attending the growth of cowboy songs in isolated communities in the Southwest, and the conditions under which arose the English and Scottish popular ballads—those problematic pieces which form so special a chapter in the history of English poetry. Mr. Lomax, the chief collector of southwestern folk songs, notes, when speaking of western communities, how "illiterate people and people cut off from newspapers and books, isolated and lonely—thrown back on primal resources for entertainment and for the expression of emotion—utter themselves through somewhat the same character of songs as did their forefathers …

Arnold's Sources For Schrab And Rustum, Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

It is generally assumed, either explicitly or by inference that Matthew Arnold's Schrab and Rustum (1853) is based on the story as told in the abridgment of the Sháhnáma of Firdawsí by the Rev. J. A. Atkinson (1832), which gives in an appendix a complete rendering of the Schrab and Rustum episode in heroic couplets ; or on Sir John Malcolm's History of Persia (1815); but no one has investigated the relative use made of the two, or the exact debt of the poet to either.

Notes On Tennyson's Lancelot And Elaine, Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

The chief sources of Tennyson's Idylls are, as so well known, Malory's Morte Darthur and the Mabinogion. Secondary sources are the chronicles of Geoffrey of Monmouth, from whom the poet derived a few name-forms like Igerne and Gorlois, and stray touches in the handling, and the anonymous history, ascribed to Nennius, from which (Lancelot and Elaine, ll. 284-315) he derived his account of Arthur's twelve battles. In 1889, Dr. Walther Wüllenweber pointed out that Tennyson seems also to have drawn upon Ellis' Specimens of Early English Metrical Romances, for a few proper names, like Bellicent and Anguisant, not found elsewhere. …

Another Version Of The Ballad Of Lord Randal, Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

THE following version of the familiar ballad known variously as "Lord Randal," "Lord Ronald," and so on, was discovered by Mr. H. C. House, of Kingfisher College, Oklahoma, sung in a railroad camp at Geary, Colorado. It should be added to the fifteen or so versions, some of them American, of which Prof. Child makes an exhaustive study, English and Scottish Popular Ballads, I, 151 ff. The identity of the ballad is unmistakable. All the conventional features, the poison, the legacy, the iteration, and the dialogue are present. modified to suit altered local conditions.

The Psychological Development Of Expression Volume 1, Mary Ann Blood, Ida Morey Riley

The Psychological Development of Expression

Collection of texts for practical use by students of the Columbia School of Oratory in Chicago.

The Romaunt Of The Rose: Additional Evidence That It Is Chaucer's, Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

THERE are five poems included in modern editions of Chaucer's works that are now generally recognized as not his. These are The Cuckoo and the Nightingale, The Complaint of a Lover's Life, The Flower and the Leaf, The Court of Love, and Chaucer's Dream. One other long work, the Englislh version of the famous French poem of the thirteenth century, Le Roman de la Rose, which has come down to us as translated by Chaucer, is now the subject of much dispute.

In conclusion, it would seem that henceforward it is for those who pronounce the translation spurious to …
