Condition: Gut. 172 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schutzumschlag etwas abgenutzt, Seiten altersbedingt leicht vergilbt. Insgesamt guter Zustand / Dust jacket a bit worn, pages slightly yellowed due to age. Overall good condition. - Two recurrent themes in Renaissance literature lie at the heart of these essaysthe sense of exile as a precondition to identity and the preoccupation with change or mutability. "In the search for beginnings from a position in the middle, Renaissance writers are constantly struck by and fearful of the inevitable change that gives them life and corrodes their spirit," writes A. Bartlett Giamatti in his preface. At the same time, "the Renaissance's constant quest to create an authentic identity was always hindered by the sense of being a mere reproduction of the ancient culture upon which one wished to pattern one's literature and life. " Giamatti engages the problem of writers like Petrarch, Boiardo, Ariosto, Spenser, Marlowe, and others, who sought to bring ancient ethics, literature, and learning to life again during the Renaissance in Italy and later in England. He probes the various ways they returned to the question of beginnings, and he looks for the origins of certain topics or mythological obsessions of the age. In the figures of Hippolytus, Aesculapius, and Proteus, especially, he seeks to define the sense that displacement must precede renascence, that self-definition must be achieved through self-transformation. These seven essays by a scholar noted for his wit and eloquence in the service of Humanism provide insights into Renaissance literature that readers will find exceptionally stimulating and rewarding.
