Sireno and Philisides: The Politics of Piety in Spanish Pastoral Romance and Sidney’s Old Arcadia

This essay reevaluates how and why, in the Old Arcadia ’s Third and Fourth Eclogues, Sir Philip Sidney imitates and revises specific aspects of two Spanish pastoral romances: Jorge de Montemayor’s Diana (ca. 1559–60) and Gaspar Gil Polo’s Diana Enamorada (1564). Each respective portion of the two Spanish works cited above relates to the protagonist shepherd Sireno. These representations of Sireno bear an important relationship to Catholic Christian piety. And each representation relates to the respective author’s specific concerns with political patronage. Sidney blends and transforms those two Spanish Sireno models as a means to invent both his pastoral persona Philisides and the wedding of Lalus and Kala in his Old Arcadia ’s Eclogues. By this means, Sidney invents moderate Protestant representations of affective individual piety and of marriage, each implicitly complementing Philipp Melanchthon’s theology of synergism. This thesis builds upon recent work on Sidney’s Defence of Poesy for a refined perspective on the continuity between theory and practice in his oeuvre. The argument also sheds new light on the relationship between Philisides’s political discourse and his discourse about love. In the Old Arcadia , these Eclogues’ non-allegorical representation of virtue and their rhetoric about marriage supplement the work’s main narrative plane rather than moralize it or illuminate it philosophically.

Anti-Protestant Music for Sixteenth-Century Ferrara

This study explores the motivations that lie behind three polyphonic works by musicians active at Ferrara and Mantua in the first half of the sixteenth century: a motet by Maistre Jhan, and a motet and mass by Jacquet. The background that links all three is the intense campaign that was waged between reform and orthodoxy. Music and visual art were sometimes put to use as propaganda. The Este and Gonzaga families who ruled the two states were related by blood and political alliances. They had strong reasons to defend the orthodox religion; they were also deeply persuaded of music's communicative power. Not surprisingly, their court musicians were often called on for music with a political message. The three works chosen here, each in its own way, reflect the religious convictions and personal ambitions of leading members of the two families caught up in crises: duke Ercole II D'Este, uneasy vassal of the pope; his wife Renée de France, habitual protector of religious rebels; and Cardinal Ercole Gonzaga, a career diplomat hopeful of wearing the triple crown.
