        The early Spenser, 1554–80

        The early Spenser, 1554–80

        'Minde on honour fixed'

        by Jean R. Brink, Joshua Samuel Reid

        Brink's provocative biography shows that Spenser was not the would-be court poet whom Karl Marx's described as 'Elizabeth's arse-kissing poet'. In this readable and informative account, Spenser is depicted as the protégé of a circle of London clergymen, who expected him to take holy orders. Brink shows that the young Spenser was known to Alexander Nowell, author of Nowell's Catechism and Dean of St. Paul's. Significantly revising the received biography, Brink argues that that it was Harvey alone who orchestrated Familiar Letters (1580). He used this correspondence to further his career and invented the portrait of Spenser as his admiring disciple. Contextualising Spenser's life by comparisons with Shakespeare and Sir Walter Ralegh, Brink shows that Spenser shared with Sir Philip Sidney an allegiance to the early modern chivalric code. His departure for Ireland was a high point, not an exile.

        The art of The Faerie Queene

        by Richard Danson Brown, Joshua Samuel Reid

        The Art of The Faerie Queene is the first book centrally focused on the forms and poetic techniques employed by Spenser. It offers a sharp new perspective on Spenser by rereading The Faerie Queene as poetry which is at once absorbing, demanding and experimental. Instead of the traditional conservative model of Spenser as poet, this book presents the poem as radical, edgy and unconventional, thus proposing new ways of understanding the Elizabethan poetic Renaissance. The book moves from the individual words of the poem to metre, rhyme and stanza form onto its larger structures of canto and book. It will be of particular relevance to undergraduates studying Elizabethan poetry, graduate students and scholars of Renaissance poetry, for whom the formal aspect of the poetry has been a topic of growing relevance in recent years.

        Edmund Spenser and the romance of space

        by Tamsin Badcoe

        Edmund Spenser and the romance of space advances the exploration of literary space into new areas, firstly by taking advantage of recent interdisciplinary interests in the spatial qualities of early modern thought and culture, and secondly by reading literature concerning the art of cosmography and navigation alongside imaginative literature with the purpose of identifying shared modes and preoccupations. The book looks to the work of cultural and historical geographers in order to gauge the roles that aesthetic subjectivity and the imagination play in the development of geographical knowledge: contexts ultimately employed by the study to achieve a better understanding of the place of Ireland in Spenser's writing. The study also engages with recent ecocritical approaches to literary environments, such as coastlines, wetlands, and islands, thus framing fresh readings of Spenser's handling of mixed genres.

        Spenserian satire

        A tradition of indirection

        by Series edited by J. B. Lethbridge, Rachel Hile, Joshua Samuel Reid

        Scholars of Edmund Spenser have focused much more on his accomplishments in epic and pastoral than his work in satire. Scholars of early modern English satire almost never discuss Spenser. However, these critical gaps stem from later developments in the canon rather than any insignificance in Spenser's accomplishments and influence on satiric poetry. This book argues that the indirect form of satire developed by Spenser served during and after Spenser's lifetime as an important model for other poets who wished to convey satirical messages with some degree of safety. The book connects key Spenserian texts in The Shepheardes Calender and the Complaints volume with poems by a range of authors in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, including Joseph Hall, Thomas Nashe, Tailboys Dymoke, Thomas Middleton and George Wither, to advance the thesis that Spenser was seen by his contemporaries as highly relevant to satire in Elizabethan England.

        Samuel Beckett

        Eine Biographie

        by James Knowlson, Wolfgang Held, James Knowlson

        Als Samuel Beckett, einer der innovativsten und einflußreichsten Autoren des 20.Jahrhunderts, 1989 starb, war er weltberühmt. Spät – erst mit der Pariser Uraufführung von En attendant Godot 1953 – richteten sich die Scheinwerfer auf den öffentlichkeitsscheuen Autor.Beckett, 1906 geboren, studierte in Dublin und in Paris, wo er sich James Joyce anschloß. Ein erster Band mit Erzählungen erschien 1934. Drei Jahre später verließ er Irland für immer und zog nach Paris, aus dem ihn die deutsche Besatzung vorübergehend vertrieb. Verlage wagten sich an seine Bücher kaum heran – bis der Erfolg des Godot diesen und den materiellen Schwierigkeiten ein Ende bereitete. Jedoch um sein Schreiben, um eine Verfassung, die ihm das Schreiben überhaupt erlaubte, hat Beckett ein Leben lang gerungen.James Knowlson, der das Beckett-Archiv in Reading aufbaute, hat Becketts Werk mehr als dreißig Jahre erforscht. Mehr als zwanzig war er mit dem Autor befreundet. Ein halbes Jahr vor seinem Tod autorisierte Beckett Knowlsons Biographieprojekt: Er »ist der, der mein Werk am besten kennt«. Auch zu Becketts Leben förderte Knowlson viel Unbekanntes ans Licht. So erhielt er als erster Zugang zu den aufregenden Tagebüchern von Becketts Deutschlandreise 1936/37. Mit seinen umfassenden Kenntnissen kann er zeigen, wie auch Becketts spätere Werke, die biographische Anspielungen eher vermeiden, in Leben und Denken des Autors verwurzelt sind.Fünf Jahre nach der englischen Erstveröffentlichung erscheint James Knowlsons große, definitive Biographie Samuel Becketts im Suhrkamp Verlag, der das Werk des irischen Nobelpreisträgers seit einem halben Jahrhundert deutsch in vielen (oft zwei- und dreisprachigen) Ausgaben

        Er war ein Intellektueller mit einer gehörigen Portion Selbstironie, ein Autor, der die literarischen Konventionen aushebelte und sein berühmtestes Stück Warten auf Godot zur Entspannung schrieb: Samuel Beckett, irischer Nobelpreisträger, ist längst zur populären Ikone geworden, und seine Figuren sind überall zu finden – ob in der Literatur, im Film oder in der Werbung.

        Rereading Chaucer and Spenser

        Dan Geffrey with the New Poete

        by Rachel Stenner, Tamsin Badcoe, Gareth Griffith

        Rereading Chaucer and Spenser is a much-needed volume that brings together established and early career scholars to provide new critical approaches to the relationship between Geoffrey Chaucer and Edmund Spenser. By reading one of the greatest poets of the Middle Ages alongside one of the greatest poets of the English Renaissance, this collection poses questions about poetic authority, influence, and the nature of intertextual relations in a more wide-ranging manner than ever before. With its dual focus on authors from periods often conceived as radically separate, the collection also responds to current interests in periodisation. This approach will engage academics, researchers and students of Medieval and Early Modern culture.

        Alaska Days with John Muir

        by Samuel Hall Young

        Samuel Hall Young, a Presbyterian clergyman, met John Muir when the great naturalist's steamboat docked at Fort Wrangell, in southeastern Alaska, where Young was a missionary to the Stickeen Indians. In "Alaska Days With John Muir" he describes this 1879 meeting: "A hearty grip of the hand and we seemed to coalesce in a friendship which, to me at least, has been one of the very best things in a life full of blessings." This book, first published in 1915, describes two journeys of discovery taken in company with Muir in 1879 and 1880. Despite the pleas of his missionary colleagues that he not risk life and limb with "that wild Muir," Young accompanied Muir in the exploration of Glacier Bay. Upon Muir's return to Alaska in 1880, they traveled together and mapped the inside route to Sitka. Young describes Muir's ability to "slide" up glaciers, the broad Scotch he used when he was enjoying himself, and his natural affinity for Indian wisdom and theistic religion. From the gripping account of their near-disastrous ascent of Glenora Peak to Young's perspective on Muir's famous dog story "Stickeen," Alaska Days is an engaging record of a friendship grounded in the shared wonders of Alaska's wild landscapes.

        Briefe 1929–1940

        by Samuel Beckett, Chris Hirte

        Die Briefe, die Samuel Beckett zwischen 1929 und 1940 in Irland, England, Frankreich und Deutschland geschrieben hat, vermitteln ein lebendiges und persönliches Bild jener Jahre und ermöglichen es, die allmähliche, tastende Herausbildung des ganz besonderen »Sensoriums« und der einzigartigen literarischen Stimme Becketts – gegen sein eigenes Zaudern, gegen Indifferenz und Ablehnung, die er erfuhr – zu verfolgen. Die auf vier Bände angelegte Ausgabe bietet zum ersten Mal eine umfassende Auswahl der Briefe einer der größten literarischen Figuren des 20. Jahrhunderts. Die Schreiben stammen aus den 60 Jahren, in denen Samuel Beckett als Autor aktiv war (1929–1989). Ausgewählt aus mehr als 15.000 erfaßten Briefen wurden Schreiben an Freunde, Maler und Musiker ebenso wie an Studenten, Verleger, Übersetzer und Kollegen in der literarischen und der Welt des Theaters. Sie werden begleitet von detaillierten Einführungen, Stellenkommentaren, Zeittafeln und Kurzporträts der wichtigsten Briefpartner. Die Briefe dokumentieren Samuel Becketts Entwicklung und sein vielfältiges Schaffen. Darüber hinaus lernen wir – lange nach der Veröffentlichung seiner Werke und viele Jahre nach James Knowlsons Biographie, die bereits aus Briefen zitiert – mit der ersten großen Briefausgabe den Jahrhundertautor noch einmal von einer neuen Seite und mit einem anderen Ton kennen: ebenso spannende wie aufschlußreiche Lektüre; eine Erfahrung sui generis.
