This article offers the first focused analysis of John Hawkins's 1635 English rendering of Pietro Aretino's Parafrasi sopra i sette salmi della penitenza di David, situating the translation within its Catholic and translingual context. Nearly a century after Thomas Wyatt's versified treatment of the Sette Salmi, a sequence of seven Psalms framed within the narrative of a penitent King David, this prose version appeared in Douai, a city known for its English Catholic university. I analyse this translation's discursive and bibliographical elements in relation to the dynamic book trade supplying England's Catholics with religious texts, and with particular emphasis on the ways Hawkins's rendering dresses the Sette Salmi in the rhetoric of imaginative contemplation for devotional purposes. ‘Contemplate on the subiect following’, he urges in a preface to the reader; in his English treatments of the paraphrases' prologues, meanwhile, the translator embroiders the text with emphases on both ‘phantasy’ and heightened suffering. Though Hawkins never names Aretino explicitly, this translation takes part in a transnational effort to revisit the Sette Salmi and to rehabilitate an author known commonly in the Anglophone world, if not more widely in Europe, as the ‘scourge of princes’ and author of the scandalous Ragionamenti.

Richard Hakluyt, author of the major geographic compendium The Principal Navigations (1589; 1598-1600) spent much of his life in service to the English church, describing himself late in his career as 'one publikely and anciently devoted to God's service'. Despite this, his religious profession has often been viewed within scholarship as secondary to his geographic work, and the apparent absence of any explicitly religious writings has made the details of his own beliefs difficult to ascertain. This article sheds fresh light on both Hakluyt's religious beliefs and their importance to his geographic works through analysis of previously unexamined manuscript notes form the early 1580s. These notes cover a lecture focusing on the third article and a sermon exhorting the need for ministerial vocations, both given by Hakluyt while at the University of Oxford, and offer insight into his religious beliefs. The analysis offered in this article demonstrates the integral importance of religion to Hakluyt's geographic work while simultaneously locating him within a wide continental network of theologians and writers to reassess the impact and reach of his ministerial role.
Richard Hakluyt，主要地理纲要《主要导航》(1589)的作者;(1598-1600)一生中大部分时间都在为英国教会服务，在他职业生涯的后期，他形容自己是“一个公开的、自古以来致力于为上帝服务的人”。尽管如此，他的宗教职业在学术界经常被认为次于他的地理研究，而且明显缺乏任何明确的宗教著作，这使得他自己的信仰细节难以确定。本文通过对16世纪80年代早期未经审查的手稿笔记的分析，对哈克鲁伊特的宗教信仰及其对他的地理著作的重要性进行了新的阐释。这些笔记涵盖了一篇专注于第三篇文章的演讲和一篇劝诫牧师职业必要性的布道，这两篇都是哈克卢伊特在牛津大学发表的，并提供了他对宗教信仰的见解。本文提供的分析展示了宗教对哈克鲁伊特地理工作的整体重要性，同时将他置于一个广泛的大陆神学家和作家网络中，以重新评估他的牧师角色的影响和范围。

This article investigates the nuanced relationship between songbirds and social dynamics in early modern England. It demonstrates how a rhetorical discourse of social distinction was created by printed bird‐training manuals. This discourse was necessary because the same species of songbird existed across the social spectrum. For native songbirds, therefore, their inherent value, and the status they conferred upon their owners, was determined more by their skill and training than by their particular species. Printed manuals explained how songbirds could be raised to surpass the limitations of nature through learning the song of another species, learning musical phrases and by being taught to sing in the winter rather than the summer. Analysing printed literature, probate inventories and household accounts, this article demonstrates that the practice of songbird‐keeping was widely affordable. This can then be contrasted to the ‘gentlemanly’ model of bird‐keeping outlined by printed manuals, which emphasise the need for investment into the birds to cause them to surpass the limitations of nature. The authority of this ‘gentlemanly’ model was used to cast judgment upon those who did not follow the manuals' guidance, highlighting the fact that a songbird's true value lay in its abilities rather than its species.

It is difficult to consider the resplendent display of Donatello’s sculpture under review here as a single exhibition. Of the approximately 130 artworks included, around fifty are by or attributed to Donatello; a number of these were made in partnership with the sculptorarchitect Michelozzo and many with workshop assistance. Divided between two venues, this seemed the equivalent of three exhibitions. Eleven rooms at the Palazzo Strozzi presented a chronological survey of the sculptor’s career and influence in the fifteenth century. A second section, in the Bargello’s cavernous Salone di Donatello, focused on several statues, including his bronze David, the Orsanmichele St. George with its tabernacle niche and schiacciato relief, and the Marzocco, the lion he carved in sandstone (macigno). And artworks in two groundfloor rooms at the Bargello explored his influence in the later fifteenth, sixteenth, and seventeenth centuries. The exhibition expanded, potentially, even beyond these sites, as signage encouraged visitors to explore other cultural institutions in Florence and outside the city in Tuscany where additional examples of Donatello’s art can be found – or where sculptures included in the exhibition usually reside. Before 2022, comprehensive museum exhibitions featured Donatello’s art twice: in 1887, on the fifth centenary of his birth, and in 1985– 6, when an exhibition staged in three cities marked the sixth centenary. 2022 is not the anniversary of his birth or death or of the completion of a major sculpture (or so we think; missing
我们很难把这里展出的多纳泰罗的雕塑看作是一个单独的展览。在收录的大约130件艺术品中，大约有50件是多纳泰罗的作品或被认为是多纳泰罗的作品;其中许多是与雕塑家兼建筑师Michelozzo合作制作的，许多是在车间的帮助下制作的。分为两个场地，这似乎相当于三个展览。斯特罗齐宫(Palazzo Strozzi)的11个房间按时间顺序展示了这位雕塑家在15世纪的职业生涯和影响力。第二个展区在巴杰罗的多纳泰罗沙龙(Salone di Donatello)，集中展出了几尊雕像，包括他的青铜《大卫》(David)、奥桑米歇尔圣乔治(Orsanmichele St. George)和他在砂岩(macigno)上雕刻的狮子马佐科(Marzocco)。巴格罗底层的两个房间里的艺术品探索了他在15、16和17世纪后期的影响。展览有可能扩展到这些地点之外，因为指示牌鼓励参观者探索佛罗伦萨和托斯卡纳市以外的其他文化机构，在那里可以找到更多的多纳泰罗艺术作品，或者展览中包括的雕塑通常在那里展出。在2022年之前，综合博物馆展览了两次多纳泰罗的艺术:1887年，在他出生的第五个百年，1985 - 6年，当一个展览在三个城市举行，以纪念第六个百年。2022年不是他的诞辰或逝世纪念日，也不是他完成一件重要雕塑的纪念日(至少我们是这么认为的;失踪
