Dynamics of Neo-Latin and the Vernacular offers a collection of studies that deal with the cultural exchange between Neo-Latin and the vernacular, and with the very cultural mobility that allowed for the successful development of Renaissance bilingual culture. Studying a variety of multilingual issues of language and poetics, of translation and transfer, its authors interpret Renaissance cross-cultural contact as a radically dynamic, ever-shifting process of making cultural meaning. With renewed attention for suitable theoretical and methodological frames of reference, Dynamics of Neo-Latin and the Vernacular firmly resists literary history’s temptation to pin down the Early Modern relationship between languages, literatures and cultures, in favour of stressing the sheer variety and variability of that relationship itself. Contributors are Jan Bloemendal, Ingrid De Smet, Annet den Haan, Tom Deneire, Beate Hintzen, David Kromhout, Bettina Noak, Ingrid Rowland, Johanna Svensson, Harm-Jan van Dam, Guillaume van Gemert, Eva van Hooijdonk, and Ümmü Yüksel.

La lyre et la pourpre se propose de considérer les variations, aussi bien locales que chronologiques, des rapports sans cesse variables, de la poésie et de la politique. De l'empereur chrétien (de l'Antiquité Tardive et des temps carolingiens) aux princes et aux rois ensuite, combien de nuances possibles ? De plus, le cadre intellectuel varie aussi à travers la permanence des relectures de l'Antiquité : au ve siècle jusqu'au ixe siècle, c'est encore l'Empire romain qui prédomine, puis vient le Moyen Âge proprement dit, et enfin le monde humaniste qui est aussi celui des guerres de religion. La pourpre évoquée est celle du pouvoir et celle du sang qui coule : l'éloquence a été inventée pour servir d'arme (qu'on se rappelle les conceptions de Calliclès contre Socrate dans le Gorgias platonicien). D'une mise en scène littéraire des guerres et de leurs héros, on glisse vers l'actualité, dans laquelle la poésie est instrumentalisée par la main des politiques et la plume des poètes. Et donc cette poésie reflète les événements d'un temps sans lequel elle serait largement incompréhensible. En cela, elle est inséparable de l'histoire, qui peut être publique ou privée, ou même autobiographique dans certains cas. Et à ce titre, elle est aussi un matériau vivant de l'histoire, y compris dans sa langue, langue de culture sans doute, et non moins celle des pouvoirs civils et religieux.

With this volume, Jane Chance concludes her monumental study of the history of mythography in medieval literature. Her focus here is the advent of hybrid mythography, the transformation of mythological commentary by blending the scholarly with the courtly and the personal. Chance's in-depth examination of works by the major writers of the period demonstrates how they essentially co-opted a thousand-year tradition. Their intricate narratives of identity mixed commentary with poetry, reinterpreted classical gods and heroes to suit personal agendas, and gave rise to innovative techniques such as "inglossation"--the use of a mythological figure to comment on the protagonist within an autobiographical allegory. In this manner, through allegorical authorial projection of the self, the poets explored a subjective world and manifested a burgeoning humanism that would eventually come to full fruition in the Renaissance. No other work examines the mythographic interrelationships among these poets and their unique and personal approaches to mythological commentary.
