Review # 1 was written on 2010-09-07 00:00:00 Joseph Schillinger i'm not shelling out $75(!) at the used bookstore for out of print dante scholarship (THO IT'S SO TEMPTING) so i've spent the whole latter half of this afternoon taking notes. fav: in the first bit about intertextuality she lenses the vergil-beatrice dynamic through lancelot du lac and proposes that it's vergil who acts as courtly knight to beatrice's central bossy romantic heroine, which leaves space to complete the implied triptych (knight / heroine (thus queen?) / king) with either dante OR god?! I HAVE THOUGHTS anyway the strength of this specific book is mostly about making the convivio paratextually coherent to the commedia and also being written by barolini who is SO CONSISTENTLY GOOD and has such good focus. (beatrice. she focuses on beatrice.)

Review # 2 was written on 2011-01-09 00:00:00 Michael Miller If you're into stuff like this, you can read the full review. Judgement: "Ariel's Gift: Ted Hughes, Sylvia Plath, and the Story of Birthday Letters" by Erica Wagner (Original Review, 2002) It's interesting that noted feminist Germaine Greer said of both Plath and Hughes that, 'she saw him coming' and that 'most people wouldn't have been taken in by her'. It is very easy to censure especially when you know very little of the background. Sylvia Plath was mentally ill and had already almost succeeded in killing herself before she had left the States for Cambridge. A police search for her failed to find her because she had taken an overdose and laid down underneath the floor of her mother's home. She came round and banged her head and was heard by her brother. Otherwise she would most certainly have died undiscovered.
