Abstract The name of Tristan Corbière (1847–1875) appears repeatedly in T. S. Eliot’s criticism, notably in his Clark and Turnbull lectures where Eliot characterized Corbière as a metaphysical poet and observed that he is a ‘finer poet, though a lesser intellect, than Laforgue’. Corbière’s influence on Eliot has long been recognized, but few critics acknowledge the particular resonance of his maritime poems. It is time to revisit Corbière’s crucial influence on Eliot, who drew on his writing for Poems (1920), and most significantly in the draft sea passages of The Waste Land. Identifying Corbière’s presence in the draft allows us to hear the French poet in the final version of ‘Death by Water’, and reveals that Eliot owes more to Corbière than has previously been acknowledged. I argue that Eliot was captivated by Corbière’s resolutely unsentimental depiction of maritime elements in Les Amours jaunes, and that this Breton poet offered Eliot a new voice.

For years scholars have realized that Demogorgon owes his existence to a misreading of demiurgus in a commentary on Statius’ Thebaid and that Boccaccio’s Genealogy of the Pagan Gods was the most important text for establishing Demogorgon as the ancestor of the gods for the Renaissance. But the extent of scepticism about Demogorgon in Milton’s day is not widely known. In an early example of the polemical imitation that characterizes much of his mature poetry, Milton indicates his own scepticism in Prolusion I by extensively correcting Boccaccio’s account of Demogorgon and his progeny. Unlike his frighteningly powerful namesake in Boiardo, Ariosto, and Spenser, the Demogorgon of Paradise Lost is simply one member of the court of Chaos. The multivalent periphrasis—‘the dreaded name $|$ Of Demogorgon’—suggests that Boccaccio’s ancestor of the gods is nothing more than a name.

Abstract National Library of Scotland, Advocates’ MS 19.3.1 (the Heege Manuscript) is a large, late-fifteenth-century English miscellany manuscript from the border of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. Its first booklet, which existed independently of the manuscript’s other eight booklets throughout much or all of its medieval life, contains three texts: the tail-rhyme burlesque romance The Hunting of the Hare, a mock sermon in prose, and the alliterative nonsense verse The Battle of Brackonwet. This essay proposes that Richard Heege, the booklet’s scribe, copied these texts from the repertoire of a local entertainer, be that a gifted amateur or, very plausibly, a travelling minstrel working a regular beat. In this light, the booklet’s comic, crude, and sometimes frivolous contents take on new significance in the history of English literature, as they provide close evidence for what made up the entertainments of English oral culture—or minstrelsy—at the end of the Middle Ages.
