绍嵩《江浙纪行集句诗》对《全唐诗》校勘、辨重和辑佚的文献价值

南宋陈起编《江湖小集》中的释绍嵩《江浙纪行集句诗》历来少受古代文学研究者的关注,虽然《全唐诗补编》、《全宋诗》从中辑出了部分诗人的佚句,但对其文献价值尚无人研究,本文拟就其对《全唐诗》的校勘、辨别重出作品和辑佚作一些探讨,挖掘绍嵩《江浙纪行集句诗》被学人忽视的文献学价值。     

盛唐集贤院诗歌活动考论

一般认为律体律调定型于初唐,但并不意味之后的诗歌活动都无须关注声律。盛唐集贤院群体性诗歌活动,群体性除创作实践外,还表征于人才汇聚、诗文评议和文艺书籍修撰等方面。在这层意义上,可以说"二张"和他们领导的集贤院学士一起推动了唐诗声律从定型走向成熟。     

The date of Marvell’s Hortus

A post-Restoration dating of Marvell’s poem The Garden and its Latin companion piece “Hortus” to around 1668 has been generally accepted in recent criticism, despite some counter-arguments from those who defend the traditional dating to Marvell’s period at Nun Appleton (1650–2). None of these analyses, however, have attempted to date the Latin rather than the English poem. This article offers a new dating of “Hortus” to around 1654, during Marvell’s time at Eton as tutor to John Dutton. The argument is based on a series of parallels and allusions to Latin poetry either dating from, or demonstrably particularly fashionable in, the period between 1646 and 1654, as well as close attention to the political resonance and contemporary understanding of the poem’s classical sources. As such, it is also a case study in the dating of neo-Latin verse, of which many thousands of examples survive from seventeenth-century England.     

“The artifice of eternity”: The Wanderings of Oisin and the Byzantium poems

Yeats’s poetry and drama centre on conflict, and crucially, on the clash between the mortal and the eternal. In this essay, I focus on the way in which The Wanderings of Oisin foreshadows and informs the treatment of eternity in Yeats’s later Byzantium poems. The Wanderings of Oisin explores the intensity of human longing for the eternal despite our time-bound nature, prefiguring his later impassioned though analytical Byzantium poems. Although the Byzantium poems seem initially to glorify eternity at the expense of human life, this essay traces the complexity of Yeats’s desire. Previous criticism has understated the extent to which Yeats’s poetry actively resists the siren song of eternity. The Byzantium poems problematise the eternity that they seem to desire, and this article reveals them as inflected by the way in which The Wanderings of Oisin questions the value of the eternal realm in the light of mortal heroic values. The “intensity, solitude, defeat” of the artist are inevitable, but there is a victory of sorts won from the poet’s deliberate inability to commit to any version of the eternal that preclude his own power and humanity. Yeats’s poetry runs the gamut between versions of desire that express an overweening desire for resolution even as they retain their resistance to any single pure state of being, if any such state is possible.

The Patronage of Rembrandt's Passion Series: Art,Politics, and Princely Display at the Court of Orange in the Seventeenth Century

This article sets out a new reading of a neglected poem by Sir Robert Howard, The Duell of the Stags (1668). It places the poem in the political context of the fall of Clarendon and rise of Howard’s friend and ally the Duke of Buckingham, and of Howard’s concurrent falling-out with his brother-in-law John Dryden. It explores the influence of Thomas Hobbes’ political theory on Howard’s poem, especially refracted through Sir William Davenant’s Hobbesian epic Gondibert (1651). The author argues that Howard’s poem implicitly attacked Dryden’s mode of panegyric for the Restoration regime by offering a radically alternative reading of Hobbes, casting royal power as fragile and contingent.     

The British Empire and revolutionary national poetry

ABSTRACT. The British empire set off an explosion of poetry, in English and native languages, particularly in India, Africa and the Middle East. This poetry – largely neglected in the scholarship on nationalism – was often revolutionary both aesthetically and politically, expressing a spirit of cultural independence. Attacks on England and the empire are common not just in native colonial poetry but also in poetry of the British isles. This article discusses some of the most influential poets, including: Shawqi of Egypt, Tagore of India, Rusafi of Iraq, Yeats of Ireland, Iqbal of Pakistan, Greenberg of pre‐State Israel, and Kipling, the ‘poet of empire’. In contrast with other empires, many poets were inspired by British culture to create revolutionary art and seek political independence. Most strikingly, British rule was instrumental in the revival of vernacular Hebrew poetry after 1917 as the centre of Hebrew literature shifted from Odessa to Tel Aviv.

古代诗歌中的气候信息及其运用

诗歌具有时间上的历时性完整,空间上的广达性全面,气候事件的内容广泛性、来源独立性的特点,决定了其在历史气候研究中的可能性。在运用文献资料进行历史气候研究时最重要的一步就是对气候资料的提取、运用,诗歌也不例外。任何一条气候资料必须同时具备三个基本要素,即时间、空间和气候事件。如何从诗歌中正确提取和运用这三个要素就成为历史气候研究的关键。此外,诗歌写作的整体背景、诗歌中的文学成分以及诗歌本身存在的谬误等都会影响到诗歌在历史气候变化研究中的运用;而诗歌在不同气候研究内容中的作用也不尽相同,诗歌对于历史时期特殊气候事件的恢复具有非常重要的意义,但在进行历史气候的平均状态研究时更多时候只能作为一种佐证。
