Pfeiffer First edition Oxford Oxford University Press 2022 xxii, 463 Seiten Illustrationen txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier How did we first come to believe in a correspondence between writers' lives and their works? When did the person of the author - both as context and target of textual interpretation - come to matter so much to the way we read? This book traces the development of author centrism back to the scholarship of early Renaissance humanists. Working against allegoresis and other traditions of non-historicizing textual reception, they discovered the power of engaging ancient works through the speculative reconstruction of writers' personalities and artistic motives. To trace the multi-lingual and eventually cross-cultural rise of reading for the author, this book presents four case studies of resolutely experimental texts by and about writers of high ambition in their respective generations: Lorenzo Valla on the forger of the Donation of Constantine, Erasmus on Saint Jerome, the poet George Gascoigne on himself, and Fulke Greville on Sir Philip Sidney. An opening methodological chapter and exhortative conclusion frame these four studies with accounts of the central lexicon-character, intention, ethos, persona-and the range of genre evidence that contemporaries used to discern and articulate authorial character and purpose. 0Constellated throughout with examples from the works of major contemporaries including John Aubrey, John Hayward, Galileo, Machiavelli, and Shakespeare, this volume resurrects a vibrant culture of biographism continuous with modern popular practice and yet radically more nuanced in its strategic reliance on the explanatory power of probabilism and historical conjecture-the discursive middle ground now obscured from view by the post-Enlightenment binaries of truth and fiction, history and0story, fact and fable Valla, Lorenzo 1407-1457 De falso credita et ementita Constantini donatione declamatio gnd (DE-588)4448840-3 Erasmus, Desiderius 1466-1536 Eximii doctoris Hieronymi Stridonensis vita gnd (DE-588)1088031366 Gascoigne, George ca. 1530/42-1577 <<A>> hundreth sundrie flowres gnd (DE-588)4663321-2 Gascoigne, George ca. 1530/42-1577 <<The>> posies gnd (DE-588)7699358-9 Greville, Fulke 1554-1628 <<A>> dedication to Sir Philip Sidney gnd (DE-588)127337360X Geschichte 1440-1640 gnd Auteur (esthétique) (IDREF)035396202 idref Renaissance (IDREF)027341933 idref Littérature (IDREF)027328570 idref lite Literatur gnd (DE-588)4035964-5 Interpretation gnd (DE-588)4072905-9 Autor gnd (DE-588)4003982-1 Intention gnd (DE-588)4129755-6 Renaissance gnd (DE-588)4049450-0 Froben, Johann ubs-AC Erasmus von Rotterdam ubs-AC 2.5.3.3.1 ubs-FA Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe Authorial personality and the making of Renaissance texts 9780191782589 A115 115BB - (41SLSP_UBS)9972611871205504 A100 100FH UBH Ap II 19665 (41SLSP_UBS)9972611871205504 Inhaltsverzeichnis PDF https://urn.ub.unibe.ch/urn:ch:slsp:0198714165:ihv:pdf 100-01/(B Pfeiffer, Douglas S. 19..-....
