abstract:How are we to connect the way that Milton uses Charles I’s love of Shakespeare against him in Eikonoklastes (1649) with the evidence of Milton’s own close appreciation of Shakespeare in his copy of the First Folio, recently identified in the Free Library of Philadelphia? Is there any relationship between the linguistic and textual fascination with Shakespeare on display in the Philadelphia Folio and the polemical quotation of Shakespeare in the prose, or should we focus on the difference between them? This article makes the case that there is a relationship between Milton’s use of the First Folio and the political prose, but one that has less to do with content or with Milton’s attitudes toward Shakespeare per se than with critical methods of reading. This relationship exemplifies the effect of polemicization on literary and textual criticism, as on every aspect of British culture, during the Civil Wars of the 1640s.
摘要:我们如何将米尔顿在1649年的《艾科诺克拉斯特集》中利用查理一世对莎士比亚的爱来反对他的方式与米尔顿自己在最近在费城自由图书馆发现的《第一对开本》中对莎士比亚的密切欣赏的证据联系起来?《费城对开本》中展现的对莎士比亚的语言和文本迷恋与散文中对莎士比亚的争论性引用之间有什么关系吗?还是我们应该关注它们之间的区别?这篇文章表明,米尔顿对《第一对开本》的使用与政治散文之间存在关系,但与内容或米尔顿对莎士比亚本身的态度无关,而与批判性阅读方法无关。这种关系体现了1640年代内战期间,论战对文学和文本批评的影响,以及对英国文化各个方面的影响。

Milton’s Hamlet: The Tragedy of Adam Unparadized 弥尔顿的哈姆雷特:亚当未被天堂化的悲剧

abstract:Shakespeare’s Hamlet was one of seventeenth-century England’s most popular plays, and, as the First Folio of the Philadelphia Free Library confirms, it was a Shakespearean drama with which Milton was deeply engaged. With Hamlet in mind, this article examines the degree to which Shakespearean tragedy qualifies Milton’s classical understanding of the genre and, more importantly, allows us insight into the relationship between tragedy and grace. What emerges is the profoundly agonistic but creative relationship between such influences as Shakespeare and Luther at the climax of Paradise Lost—so much so that without them Milton’s great work of art would have neither the same affective nor epistemological power. The argument falls into two parts: the first focuses on a specific network of contexts for Milton’s representation of the Fall as a tragedy, and the second on Adam and Eve’s response to that tragedy.
摘要:莎士比亚的《哈姆雷特》是17世纪英国最受欢迎的戏剧之一,正如费城自由图书馆的《第一对开本》所证实的那样,这是一部深受弥尔顿影响的莎士比亚戏剧。考虑到哈姆雷特,本文考察了莎士比亚悲剧在多大程度上符合弥尔顿对这一类型的古典理解,更重要的是,让我们深入了解悲剧与优雅之间的关系。出现的是莎士比亚和路德在《失乐园》高潮时的影响之间深刻而痛苦但富有创造性的关系,以至于如果没有他们,米尔顿的伟大艺术作品将既没有情感上的力量,也没有认识论上的力量。争论分为两部分:第一部分集中在米尔顿将堕落描述为悲剧的特定语境网络上,第二部分集中在亚当和夏娃对这场悲剧的回应上。

Milton, Shakespeare, and the English Grammar of Possibility 弥尔顿、莎士比亚和英语可能性语法

abstract:This article considers Milton’s art in relation to modality and the evolving grammar of possibility in Early Modern English. Specifically, it reads the surprisingly complex modal auxiliary verbs, may and its rival can, as keywords in poetic scenes of mental deliberation. A comparative analysis of Shakespearean drama sets the scene, demonstrating how the polysemy of may contributes not only to a psychology of potential action in Brutus’s deliberation over Caesar’s assassination but also to his political conceptions. In Milton’s Sonnet 8, by comparison, the ascendance of ability-can over may affirms the poet’s power and the potential reach of the English language. In the translated epigraph to Areopagitica, genuine liberty finds definition in the interplay of a distinctive English liberty-may with a meritocratic ability can-and-will. Can and will are again lead performers in the deliberative interrogation of divine agency in Paradise Regained, whereas the role of might is questioned in Milton’s tragic depiction of fallen agency in Samson Agonistes.
本文将弥尔顿的艺术与早期现代英语中情态和可能性语法的演变联系起来。具体来说,它将令人惊讶的复杂情态助动词may和它的竞争对手can作为精神思考的诗意场景中的关键词。通过对莎士比亚戏剧的对比分析,揭示了“may”一词的多义性不仅在布鲁图斯考虑刺杀凯撒时产生了潜在的行动心理,而且对布鲁图斯的政治观念也产生了影响。相比之下,在弥尔顿的十四行诗第8首诗中,“能”比“可能”的优势肯定了诗人的力量和英语语言的潜在影响力。在翻译后的《论出版自由》的题词中,真正的自由在一种独特的英国自由与精英能力的相互作用中找到了定义。在《复乐园》中,“能”和“意志”再次成为对神的代理的深思熟虑的拷问的主角,而弥尔顿在《参孙阿贡尼斯忒斯》中,对堕落代理的悲剧性描述中,“可能”的角色受到了质疑。

Satanic Ingratitude and Psychological Determinism in Paradise Lost 《失乐园》中的撒旦入世与心理决定论

abstract:This article suggests that Milton’s representation of Satanic ingratitude in book 4 of Paradise Lost imports into his epic poem some of his previous thoughts on unchangeable affections in the divorce tracts. Satan’s inability to repent in the soliloquy on Mount Niphates is routed through an experience of emotional fixity; he fails to feel gratitude for divine beneficence even though he knows he ought to feel it. In the divorce tracts, Milton bases his argument for divorce on the claim that certain affections, even negative ones, could not be changed because they originate in a person’s innermost nature. Satan’s soliloquy, I propose, explores the possibility that a similar emotional immutability may preclude certain persons from participating in virtue.
文摘:本文认为,弥尔顿在《失乐园》第四卷中对撒旦忘恩负义的描写,在他的史诗中引入了他以前对离婚小说中无法改变的情感的一些思考。撒旦在尼普哈提斯山上的独白中无法忏悔,这是由于一种情感固定的体验;尽管他知道自己应该感受到神的仁慈,但他并没有对神的仁慈感到感激。在离婚书中,米尔顿提出离婚的理由是,某些感情,即使是消极的感情,也无法改变,因为它们源于一个人内心深处。我认为,撒旦的独白探索了一种可能性,即类似的情感不变性可能会阻止某些人参与美德。

Like Alcestis: Milton’s Twenty-Third Sonnet and Lyric Personhood 像阿尔塞提斯:弥尔顿的第二十三首十四行诗和抒情人格

abstract:The much-debated question of which of Milton’s wives is the “espoused saint” of Sonnet 23 reveals just how much is omitted from Milton’s vision of his saintly beloved. His wife is not given any of the characteristics we typically desire to specify a person: name, age, identifying features, or unique charms. She is instead identified merely through possessives and comparisons. This article explores how Milton’s sonnet taps into an idea of intermediate personhood afforded by the grammatical peculiarities of pronouns and how the poem meditates on lyric conventions of imagining persons. Milton’s amplification of these conventions allows him to see his beloved as irreplaceable while also depicting her as a capacious figure of intimacy in conversation with other figures of intimacy such as Euripides’s Alcestis. In crafting this figure of peculiar love, Milton lays the groundwork for his defense of the “sole propriety” of marriage in Paradise Lost.
关于弥尔顿的妻子中哪一个是十四行诗第23首“被信奉的圣徒”这个备受争议的问题,揭示了弥尔顿对他圣洁的爱人的想象中遗漏了多少。他的妻子没有我们通常想要描述一个人的任何特征:名字、年龄、识别特征或独特的魅力。相反,她仅仅是通过所有格和比较来识别的。这篇文章探讨了弥尔顿的十四行诗是如何利用由代词的语法特点所提供的中间人格的概念,以及这首诗是如何思考想象人物的抒情惯例的。弥尔顿对这些惯例的放大,使他看到了他心爱的人是不可替代的,同时也把她描绘成一个在与其他亲密的人物交谈时,像欧里庇德斯笔下的阿尔塞提斯那样,宽厚的亲密人物。通过塑造这个奇特的爱情形象,弥尔顿为他在《失乐园》中捍卫婚姻的“唯一礼仪”奠定了基础。

Longinus and Milton: “’Tis the hupsos I looke after” 朗吉纳斯和弥尔顿:"这是我所照顾的丈夫"

abstract:John Aubrey singled out the concept of hupsos —sublimity—in two of Milton’s political sonnets. This article examines the importance of this effect, as theorized by Longinus, in four of Milton’s other poems. Longinus identified striking thought and pathos or strong feeling (pathema) as two natural sources of hupsos ; both of these origins are explored in Lycidas. Longinus’s analysis of the truth of emotion in an ode by Sappho and that poem’s fusion of opposite sensations is then applied to Milton’s three sonnets on his blindness. Of these, “Methought I saw my late espousèd saint” is the best appreciated in the context of Longinus’s insights, in particular the intensification by displacement. The article’s larger argument is that Longinus can both defamiliarize Milton and gloriously uphold him.
约翰·奥布里在弥尔顿的两首政治十四行诗中挑出了崇高的概念。这篇文章考察了这种影响的重要性,正如朗吉纳斯在弥尔顿的其他四首诗中所阐述的那样。朗吉纳斯认为强烈的思想和悲怆或强烈的感情(痛感)是hupsos的两种自然来源;利西达斯对这两个起源都进行了探讨。朗吉努斯对萨福颂歌中情感真相的分析,以及这首诗对相反感觉的融合,随后被运用到弥尔顿关于失明的三首十四行诗中。其中,“我想我看到了我已故的信仰圣人”是在朗吉努斯的见解背景下最受赞赏的,特别是流离失所的加剧。这篇文章更大的论点是,朗吉纳斯既能使弥尔顿陌生,又能光荣地拥护他。

Bird of Paradise: The Evolving Song of Milton’s Nightingale 天堂鸟:弥尔顿笔下夜莺的进化之歌

abstract:The nightingale is a frequent presence in Paradise Lost —not only as metaphor, but as part of the underlying music of Eden. Diverging from readings that focus on Milton’s identification with the bird, this article begins with his early poetry in order to examine his changing engagement with the nightingale and Philomela’s voice. It then shows how the nightingale becomes a symbol of violated nature in Paradise Lost rather than a representation of the poet himself. Milton’s evolving use of the nightingale speaks to both his poetic development and his great care for the natural world. Carefully listening to Milton’s nightingale offers new ways to understand the ecofeminist significance of her song—and, ultimately, her silence—in Paradise Lost.
夜莺在《失乐园》中频繁出现——不仅作为隐喻,而且作为伊甸园潜在音乐的一部分。与关注弥尔顿对鸟的认同的阅读不同,这篇文章从他早期的诗歌开始,以研究他对夜莺和菲洛美拉声音的改变。然后,它展示了夜莺如何成为《失乐园》中被侵犯的自然的象征,而不是诗人本人的代表。弥尔顿对夜莺的不断运用,既说明了他诗歌的发展,也说明了他对自然世界的极大关注。仔细聆听弥尔顿的夜莺歌声,为理解她在《失乐园》中的歌声——最终是她的沉默——所具有的生态女权主义意义提供了新的途径。

Paradise Lost in a Chaotic Century 混乱世纪的失乐园

abstract:Paradise Lost has become (to borrow a term from Herder) a “fable” of choice. Although its theodicy is now obsolete, it appears to manifest concerns with problems of choice and uncertainty that speak to twenty-first-century challenges, including inequality, political polarization, and failures of collective decision-making. The impression it gives of intuiting a kind of knowledge of these contemporary problems arises out of structural and linguistic features that resemble the way chaos theory describes unpredictable systems. Paradise Lost thus gives aesthetic form to problems Milton had addressed in his earlier political writings, which look now as if they anticipate aspects of modern microeconomics.
《失乐园》已经成为(借用赫尔德的一个术语)一个“寓言”的选择。虽然它的神正论现在已经过时了,但它似乎表明了对21世纪挑战的选择和不确定性问题的关注,包括不平等、政治两极分化和集体决策的失败。它给人的印象是,对这些当代问题的直觉认识来自于结构和语言特征,这些特征类似于混沌理论描述不可预测系统的方式。因此,《失乐园》给弥尔顿在他早期的政治著作中提出的问题以美学的形式呈现出来,这些问题现在看来似乎预示了现代微观经济学的各个方面。

abstract:Most scholarship on Milton’s Paradise Lost takes Eve and Adam’s sex and gender difference for granted. While critics highlight the queer potentialities of Miltonic matter, they often focus on the epic’s angels and overlook Eve and Adam’s corporeal, yet still vital, materiality. This article turns its attention to the queer and trans possibilities in the first created humans. Bringing together accounts of queer Miltonian metaphysics, feminist psychoanalysis, and trans quantum materialism, I argue that while prelapsarian Eve and Adam have a real subjective difference, this difference is not an a priori sexed or gendered one, nor is it ontological. I offer a transpsychoanalytic reading of Eve and Adam’s unfallen subjectivities, which are structured without an originary loss, and explicate their difference while illustrating how unfallen Eden is a place without cis, binary sex and gender as we know it.
摘要:大多数关于弥尔顿《失乐园》的研究都认为夏娃和亚当的性别和性别差异是理所当然的。虽然评论家们强调了Miltonic物质的奇怪潜力,但他们经常关注史诗中的天使,而忽视了夏娃和亚当的物质性,但仍然至关重要。这篇文章将注意力转向了最初创造的人类中的酷儿和跨性别可能性。结合对酷儿密尔顿形而上学、女权主义精神分析和跨量子唯物主义的描述,我认为,虽然前拉帕萨时代的夏娃和亚当有真正的主观差异,但这种差异不是先验的性别或性别差异,也不是本体论的。我对夏娃和亚当的不完美主观主义进行了跨心理学分析,这些主观主义的结构没有最初的损失,并解释了它们的差异,同时说明了伊甸园是一个没有顺式、二元性别和性别的地方。

I offer a transpsychoanalytic reading of Eve and Adam’s unfallen subjectivities, which are structured without an originary loss, and explicate their difference while illustrating how unfallen Eden is a place without cis, binary sex and gender as we know it.","PeriodicalId":42710,"journal":{"name":"Milton Studies","volume":"64 1","pages":"283 - 315"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46627315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

abstract:Milton's Satan has more private speeches than any other character in Paradise Lost and displays a complex interiority, especially in his longest soliloquy, an anguish of conscience at the opening of book 4. But Milton also exhibits the interior of fallen Adam in book 10 through a soliloquy of despairing conscience that is resonant with Satan's earlier conscience-inflicted speech. The similarities between the interiors of Adam and Satan are deliberate and potent, yet the differences are also significant, in ways that denigrate Satan, elevate Adam (and Eve), and reveal a spectrum of consciences in Paradise Lost. This article argues that Milton had much to say about interiority, particularly through the inner faculty of conscience, which he exhibits in his epic across a wide range of characters and scenarios, from angels to human beings, and from guilt and despair to divine consolation.
弥尔顿笔下的撒旦比《失乐园》中任何其他人物都有更多的私人演讲,并表现出复杂的内心世界,尤其是在他最长的独白中,在第四卷开头的良心痛苦。但弥尔顿也展示了堕落的亚当的内心,在第10卷中,通过绝望的良心的独白,与撒旦早期的良心折磨的演讲产生共鸣。亚当和撒旦内心的相似之处是刻意而有力的,然而差异也很显著,在诋毁撒旦的方式上,提升亚当(和夏娃),并揭示了《失乐园》中良知的范围。这篇文章认为弥尔顿有很多关于内在的东西,特别是通过内在的良知,他在史诗中展示了大量的人物和场景,从天使到人类,从内疚和绝望到神圣的安慰。
