‎POLYHYMNIA The Rhetoric of Horation Lyric Discourse‎

‎University of California Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1991. Hardcover. 0520070771 . Very Minor shelfwear to book. Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. DJ has minor edgewear with light creasing. Spine a bit sunned. ; Horace's Odes have a surface translucency that belies their rhetorical sophistication. Gregson Davis brings together recent trends in the study of Augustan poetry and critical theory and deftly applies them to individual poems. Exploring four rhetorical strategies--what he calls modes of assimilation authentication consolation and praise and dispraise--Davis produces enlightening new interpretations of this classic work. Polyhymnia named after one of the Muses invoked in Horace's opening poem revises the common image of Horace as a complacent uncomplicated and basically superficial singer. Focusing on the artistic persona--the lyric "self" that is constituted in the text--Davis explores how the lyric speaker constructs subtle "arguments" whose building-blocks are topoi recurrent motifs and generic conventions. By examining the substructure of lyric argument in groupings of poems sharing similar strategies the author discloses the major principles that inform Horatian lyric composition. ; 293 pages .

‎Davlin, Mary Clemente‎

‎A Game of Heuene: Word Play and the Meaning of Piers Plowman B‎

‎A Game of Heuene is a stylistic study of word play in the B-version of the Middle English narrative poem, Piers Plowman. In a close reading of Passus I, IX, XI, and XVIII, Davlin shows the frequency of word play and its effectiveness in multiplying meaning, developing themes, and suggesting relationships. Like other notorious 'shifting, unstable' elements of style in Piers Plowman, its word play is enigmatic and demands of the reader intense attention and play of mind. Davlin argues that such demands are a way of involving the reader in the text as 'a game of heuene' (Langland's phrase for language, IX, 104), which teaches how to read experience as well as words in order to find Treuthe. The difficult form of Piers Plowman,is thus mimetic of its protagonist's struggle to experience Treuthe, and also ludic, requiring the reader to share aesthetically in Will's experience by playing the 'game of heuene', learning 'kyndeli to knowe -Treuthe'through deciphering its enigmas. A Game of Heuene advocates and demonstrates close reading with attention to word play, and should be useful to beginning students of Piers Plowmanas well as to scholars; its explication opens the meaning of particular passages and proposes a new understanding of the meaning of the entire structure and style of the poem‎
