"Parting Words examines the relationship between Victorian poetry and public culture through the lens of the valedictory or farewell address, considering works ranging from poems by Byron, Tennyson, and Browning, to essays by Twain and Wilde, to scenes from novels by Dickens and Eliot. Ironically, the Victorian demand for a public poetry was countered by a growing diversification of that public. Although the Victorian era saw the loss of faith in a unitary national public, it asked poetry to address just such a public. It is in tackling this contradiction that the Victorian poets negotiated the reception of their work"--

Abschiedsszenen haben eine lange Tradition im griechischen und lateinischen Epos, wie die vorliegende Studie veranschaulicht: Der Fokus richtet sich hierbei auf den Abschied als literarisches Motiv, auf Abschiedsszenen, die Teil der Erzählung im lateinischen Epos sind und die sich unter Liebenden zutragen. Der Aufbau einer solchen Szene mit der Szenerie und den Dialogen der Abschiednehmenden sowie die narratologische Umsetzung sind Faktoren, die genauer betrachtet werden.0Zunächst werden Abschiedsszenen aus den Epen von Vergil, Ovid, Lucan, Valerius Flaccus, Statius und Silius Italicus untersucht; auch ein Überblick über Abschiede im griechischen Epos und ein Ausblick in die Spätantike werden gegeben. Anschließend werden wiederkehrende Strukturelemente (nonverbale Handlungen) und Motive innerhalb der Figurenreden herausgearbeitet.

In contrast to the common opinion that the Johannine Farewell Discourses represent solely the Jewish genre of the Testament, George Parsenios argues that features of the discourses are misread or missed completely apart from Greco-Roman literature. Evidence from classical drama, for instance, assists in reading Jesus' return to the Father as a dramatic exit and, further, accounts for the puzzling delay of Jesus at 14:31 without recourse to redaction theories. Consolation literature and the literary symposium emphasize Jesus' continuing and consoling presence, with particular attention to the Paraclete's role as doppelgänger. The thread that binds the various chapters into a coherent whole, therefore, is the utility of classical literature in clarifying Jesus' consoling presence even after his departure to the Father.
