Abstract:

William Roper is the author of the first and most influential biography of Sir Thomas More, his father-in-law, finished in 1557. As stated in this source, shortly after More’s execution for high treason at the Tower of London (1535), the Emperor Charles V met Thomas Elyot then serving as ambassador at the imperial court. The content of this meeting was later on disclosed by Elyot himself to some members of More’s closest circle, among them Roper himself, whose testimony has remained the ultimate source of the episode. As soon as Charles had come to know about More’s execution, he communicated the news to Elyot and shared with him his admiration for the ex-Chancellor. Several scholars, however, have questioned the reliability of Roper’s memory in the light of historical evidence for Elyot’s whereabouts at the time of More’s death. This paper revises the main stances in the discussion of this episode, and brings into consideration other issues that might cast some light, not only on the details of this story, but also on the relationship between these two Thomases (More and Elyot) and Charles, the most powerful ruler in Europe at the time.

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper was to bring Sir Thomas Elyot (1490–1546) out of oblivion. In this perspective, we mentioned important biographical elements – his reputation as a self-taught man, his involvement in the circle of humanists meeting at More’s home in Chelsea, his career as a lawyer, his beginnings at court and his quick fall into disgrace. Then we tackled his career as a writer resulting from his disgrace. We evoked not only his three best sellers The Boke Named the Governor, Latin-English Dictionary and The Castle of Helth but also more obscure works – political pamphlets and moral treatises which rooted him undoubtedly into the fight against tyranny. As this fight cannot be won without the irreproachable training of the élite, we focused then on the education of young noblemen to which he devoted the beginning of his first work. The reading of the first book of The Boke Named the Governor gave us the opportunity to discover a true humanist but also a modern man who raised questions that are still topical.

Abstract:

More’s retirement at Chelsea after his resignation lasted less than two years, a time which he devoted to write his books of controversy (especially during 1533), while trying to keep himself away from public life. The life of the ex-Chancellor contrasts with the Emperor’s frantic activity in Italy, Spain and Northern Africa. As the situation of Catherine of Aragón worsened, the possibility of war between England and Charles V became more and more real. And yet, a careful revision of available data proves that the Emperor never considered this course of action seriously: his real concerns were the Turks, the strengthening of his alliance with the Pope to face Lutheranism, and the ever hostile Francis I. As an epilogue to this research, I will bring into consideration the Emperor’s words of praise about the English Chancellor, as reported presumably by Sir Thomas Elyot.

Abstract:

In The Muses' Concord, James H. Jensen observes that rhetorical theory and practice ground all the arts of the Renaissance era (47). This connection is evident in the discourse of rhetorical and dance performance shared between Classical rhetoric treatises and Renaissance dance manuals, which leads one to understand both arts equally as forms of ordered and measured language. The recognition and perspectives of dance as a form of rhetoric contribute much to our understanding of the culture's awareness and economy of nonverbal communication. The shared elements of rhetoric and dance can be observed in the sheep-shearing festival scene of The Winter's Tale (4.4). A rhetorical reading of this scene conveys the rhetorical quality of dance, as well as its dramaturgical function. Framing this reading is a cultural and historical context that delineates the association between dance and rhetoric as it was understood by Quintilian, Sir Thomas Elyot, and Ben Jonson. Indeed, Perdita's corporeal eloquence communicates an air of nobility out of place in the rustic setting of this scene and misplaced within this assumed peasant. Because Perdita's true identity is discovered soon after (5.2), this scene, with its covert comingling of peasants and aristocrats and its graceful spectacle, can be understood as a pivotal moment that moves the play from its discordant beginning to its harmonious end.

Abstract:

Actualmente, tal y como ocurrió en la modernidad, el mundo está necesitado de respuestas profundas que cuestionen al hombre completo y su modo de vida. Igual que en la época moderna, la manera de entender el mundo actual está cambiando, proceso en el que juegan un papel fundamental los medios de comunicación, la publicidad e incluso el arte, pudiendo disolverse en ocasiones la importancia del ser humano en dichos procesos burocráticos e informativos. Este es el fin principal de los trabajos de Thomas Stearns Eliot, que el ser humano no se deje llevar por la apatía existencial ni sea aplastado por los diversos elementos sociales, para ello investiga sobre la teoría y práctica poética, sobre el ser y el hacer de la poesía, sobre la creación y la crítica. Binomios inseparables y necesarios en el modelo creativo que propone su autor.

Abstract:

Persistent Pasts: Historical Palimpsests in Nineteenth-Century Prose traces Victorian historical discourse with specific attention to the works of Thomas Carlyle and George Eliot and their relation to historicism in earlier works by Sir Walter Scott and James Hogg. I argue that the Victorian response to the tense relation between the materialist Enlightenment and the idealist rhetoric of Romanticism marks a decidedly ethical turn in Victorian historical discourse. The writers introduce the dialectic of enlightened empiricism and romantic idealism to invoke the historical imagination as an ethical response to the call of the past. I read the dialectic and its invitation to ethics through the figure of the palimpsest. Drawing upon theoretical work on the palimpsest from Carlyle and de Quincey through Gérard Genette and Sarah Dillon, I analyze ways in which the materialist and idealist discourses interrupt each other and persist in one another. Central to my argument are concepts drawn from Walter Benjamin, Emmanuel Levinas, Richard Rorty, and Frank Ankersmit that challenge and / or affirm historical materiality.

Abstract:

La tesi analizza il modo in cui alcune figure e opere della letteratura greca, collegate al tema della tirannide, vengano riutilizzate all'interno del dibattito relativo alla natura e agli effetti della tirannide nella letteratura del Rinascimento inglese. In particolare, la tesi sottolinea come, in un arco di tempo compreso fra il regno di Enrico VIII e quello di Giacomo I, vari autori appartenenti all'elite culturale inglese utilizzarono soggetti tratti dalla letteratura greca per affrontare il tema in un'ottica che andava contro l'ideologia ufficiale del regno, secondo cui il tiranno era da identificare solo con l'usurpatore del trono.

Abstract:

Chapter 4 gives an account of the most influential of all English dictionaries, the Latin–English Dictionary of Sir Thomas Elyot. This was a translation, with additions, of an Italian Renaissance dictionary, the Dictionarium of Ambrogio Calepino, which brought the humanist lexicography of Latin into the English lexicographical tradition. The making of Elyot’s Dictionary is discussed, as is the series of revised editions published as Bibliotheca Eliotae by Elyot and, after his death, by Thomas Cooper. These draw on the Latin lexicography of the French humanist Robert Estienne. Annotations in surviving copies of the Dictionary and the Bibliotheca are likewise discussed: these are documents in the history of lexicography and the history of reading alike.
