Download Poems of Cupid, God of Love Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The lightheartedness of these works both masks and enhances their engagement with provocative issues of continuing interest today: conduct in society, literary practice and moral praxis, relations between men and women, the value of received wisdom. This volume offers texts of two medieval French poems by Christine de Pizan: the Epistre au dieu d'amours and Dit de la Rose, together with the first translation of these poems into modern English. The medieval English adaptation of Christine's Epistre, Thomas Hoccleve's The Letter of Cupid, is likewise presented here, and provided with a modern English translation. Finally, an eighteenth-century version of Hoccleve's poem, George Sewell's The Proclamation of Cupid, is edited here for the first time. The editions of these poems by Christine, last edited a century ago, are based on the most recent scholarly findings. The edition of Hoccleve's poem reproduces its authorial punctuation from manuscript for the first time, and thus sheds light on the vexed question of fifteenth- century English metrics. The lively modern English translations of both can be used by students, scholars, and the general reader.

Download The Poetic Theology of Love Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This book argues that current criticism tends to take the mythology of love either too innocently or too skeptically and therefore distorts the complex roles played by the god of love in longer narrative poems and discursive works of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.

Download The Cupid Side of Me Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Cupid Side of Me is a collection of love poems that I have written over the years; some to women that I’ve courted and some written just in general. My aim in putting this book together is to cover the subject of love from different points of views and scenarios, from relationships, looking for love, finding love, losing love, and seeing love. These poems are from my imagination, personal experiences, and observations.
