{"product_id":"imitative-series-and-clusters-from-colin-burrow-9783110699500","title":"Imitative Series and Clusters from Classical to Early Modern Literature","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume shows the pervasiveness over a millennium and a half of the little-studied phenomenon of multi-tier intertextuality, whether as 'linear' window reference - where author C simultaneously imitates or alludes to a text by author A and its imitation by author B - or as multi-directional imitative clusters. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt begins with essays on classical literature from Homer to the high Roman empire, where the feature first becomes prominent; then comes late antiquity, a lively area of research at present; and, after a series of essays on European neo-Latin literature from Petrarch to 1600, another area where developments are moving rapidly, the volume concludes with early modern vernacular literatures (Italian, French, Portuguese and English). Most papers concern verse, but prose is not ignored. The introduction to the volume discusses the relevant methodological issues. An Afterword outlines the critical history of 'window reference' and includes a short essay by Professor Richard Thomas, of Harvard University, who coined the term in the 1980s. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Colin Burrow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3110699508\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783110699500\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 371\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Colin Burrow","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44302385578239,"sku":"9783110699500","price":140.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c6f32678-0c17-4396-a877-578d33e19fdb.jpg?v=1695161251","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/imitative-series-and-clusters-from-colin-burrow-9783110699500","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
