Early Modern Manuscript Poetry Recovering

项目摘要

Poetic miscellanies are central to the growing interest in early modern manuscript culture. Yet few of the primary documents are available for study in reliable editions, while a very small percentage of the thousands of poems extant only in manuscript texts have been analyzed and reliably edited. The project will bring manuscript culture to a wider audience - and extend the literary canon - by editing three important verse anthologies from the period and placing them in their full cultural context. The three editions comprise two extensive collections containing works by some of our best-known Renaissance poets (Victoria and Albert Museum, Dyce MS. 44 and British Library, Harleian MS. 7392) and one hitherto unstudied and seemingly forgotten Elizabethan anthology of verse and prose (British Library Additional MS. 82370), previously in private ownership, which was acquired by the British Library in 2007. Compiled in South Yorkshire, this third collection in particular gives a rare and valuable insight into the types of verse available to provincial scribes. It also casts light on literary production and activity beyond London and the south east.The three editions will add substantially to our knowledge of scribal practice and early modern literary activity by tracing when, where, by whom and for whom these texts were produced; how they circulated; and the political and religious, as well as literary concerns, of their compilers.The project will also produce the first critical edition of forty-two Elizabethan verse libels in manuscript. Within the larger genre of early modern verse satire, verse libels are one significant type of poetry confined to manuscript circulation. These poems were far too slanderous to reach print. They are not available in critical texts and are almost wholly unknown to scholars. As a result, a large piece of our understanding about the dissemination and debate of political concerns in sixteenth-century England is currently missing. Many of these poems circulated for decades, appreciated for their literary quality long after the targets of their satire were distant memories. Recovering these poems will add therefore to our appreciation of Elizabethan poetry, as well as the political interests and moral sensitivities of the age. The conference and resulting book of essays will disseminate best practice in archival studies and editing. It will place what we have learned about early modern manuscript culture during the project in the context of on-going research in this field.The project will also train two students in the multiple skills required for manuscript studies, equipping them for scholarly careers in this area, and providing the field with much-needed expertise for further progress in the discipline by the next generation of scholars.

诗歌杂记是对早期现代手稿文化日益增长的兴趣的核心。然而，可供研究的主要文献很少有可靠的版本，而仅以手稿形式存在的数千首诗歌中，只有很小一部分被分析和可靠地编辑过。该项目将通过编辑这一时期的三部重要诗选并将它们置于完整的文化背景中，将手稿文化带给更广泛的受众，并扩展文学经典。这三个版本包括两个广泛的收藏，其中包括一些我们最著名的文艺复兴时期诗人的作品（维多利亚和阿尔伯特博物馆，戴斯MS. 44和大英图书馆，哈雷MS. 7392）和一个迄今未被研究和似乎被遗忘的伊丽莎白诗文选集（大英图书馆额外MS. 82370），以前是私人所有，2007年被大英图书馆收购。汇编在南约克郡，这第三集特别提供了一个罕见的和有价值的见解的诗句类型提供给省级抄写员。它还揭示了伦敦和东南部以外的文学作品和活动。这三个版本将大大增加我们对抄写实践和早期现代文学活动的了解，通过追踪这些文本的产生时间，地点，作者和作者；它们是如何传播的；以及它们的编纂者所关心的政治、宗教和文学问题。该项目还将产生第一个批判版的42伊丽莎白诗歌诽谤手稿。在更大的早期现代诗歌讽刺体裁中，诗歌诽谤是一种重要的诗歌类型，仅限于手稿流通。这些诗太过诽谤，不能付印。它们在批判文本中是找不到的，学者们几乎完全不知道。因此，我们对16世纪英格兰政治关注的传播和辩论的理解缺失了很大一部分。其中许多诗歌流传了几十年，在它们讽刺的对象成为遥远的记忆之后，它们的文学品质却得到了人们的赞赏。因此，恢复这些诗歌将增加我们对伊丽莎白时代诗歌的欣赏，以及那个时代的政治利益和道德敏感性。会议和论文集将传播档案研究和编辑方面的最佳实践。它将把我们在这个项目中了解到的早期现代手稿文化放在这个领域正在进行的研究的背景下。该项目还将为两名学生提供手稿研究所需的多种技能培训，为他们在该领域的学术生涯做好准备，并为下一代学者在该领域的进一步发展提供急需的专业知识。
