“…On "Pan and Luna" as a response to the Pan poems of EBB, see, e.g.,Davies 2006 andHair 1974. On poetic interchange between the Brownings, see alsoDavies and Stone 2006, Pollock 2003, and Sullivan 1987 Ovid, Metamorphoses, 1.703-8: "Hic illam, cursum impedientibus undis, / ut se mutarent liquidas orasse sorores; / Panaque cum prensam sibi iam Syringa putaret, / corpore pro nymphae calamos tenuisse palustres, / dumque suspirat, motos in harundine ventos / effecisse sonum tenuem similemque querenti"(Ovid 2004).…”

“What Is Historical Poetics?”

In posing questions about what is “historical” and what counts as “poetics,” historical poetics cannot separate the practice of reading a poem from the histories and theories of reading that mediate our ideas about poetry. While nineteenth-century verse cultures revolved around reading by generic recognition, a reading of poetry as a form of cognition emerges among later critics like I. A. Richards, who illustrates how a line from Robert Browning is read in the mind’s eye, as if in the present tense. But Browning was already doing a version of historical poetics, in writing “Pan and Luna” as a poem about reading other poems about Pan, among them “A Musical Instrument,” by Elizabeth Barrett Browning. In the composition and reception of her poem, we see how Victorian poetry foregrounds its multiple mediations, including the mediation of voice by meter as a musical instrument. The recirculation of her popular poem through citation and recitation, illustration and anthologization, prosody and parody, demonstrates a varied history of thinking through—simultaneously “about” and “in”—verse.

Nowadays, lexicographical studies require an interaction with Digital Humanities. This volume presents the genesis and structure of the LBC database, a digital work support tool developed by the Multilanguage Cultural Heritage Lexicon Research Unit under the aegis of the University of Florence, which allows to carry out text research in six different digital corpora (French, English, Italian, Russian, Spanish, German). The authors illustrate the specificities of each corpus in terms of the chosen sources and propose lexicographical and translational uses.
