Milton's Cambridge Latin: Performing in the Genres, 1625-1632Arizona Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, 2005 - 305 Seiten "'Milton's Cambridge Latin : performing in the genres 1625-1632' follows Milton as a student, performing aloud in each of the Latin genres -- required or voluntary -- by which Cambridge defined itself in his time there. By taking readers inside his Latin scripts, this study shows his emerging personality, different from orthodox accounts. He seeks reputation, he is outgoing and politically alert, and where appropriate he is cheeky and bawdy. Methods used in his book include those of Latin scholarship, history, and anthropology. All the Latin is given in its original and in translation. A special feature is the first ever complete text and edition of Milton's showy parody of Cambridge graduations, by which he presented his college's freshmen at their induction-rite. For this reason in particular, the work is needed by all university libraries and Milton scholars." -- |
