A Model of Creation? Scott, Sidney and Du Bartas
No full textThe copyright for this article belongs jointly to the Sidney Journal and to the author, and the Sidney Journal is willing to make the essay accessible via an institutional repository.William Scott’s translation from Guillaume de Saluste Du Bartas’ La Sepmaine, which follows Scott's treatise in the surviving manuscript, is an essential counterpart to the Model of Poesy. As well as being a practical demonstration of Scott’s technical principles, the translation provides the most immediate and enriching literary context for the Model’s arguments about the purpose of poetry. Shared images of making (e.g. gestation, architecture and agriculture) that describe the creation of poems in the Model and the creation of the world in Du Bartas evoke the analogy between the poetic maker and divine Maker, which Sidney had explored in the Defence. Yet the Model’s more positive assessment of the role of human reason in poetic composition contrasts with Du Bartas’ insistence on the poet’s dependence on prior creative acts. So how alike for Scott are composing a poem and creating the world? How far is a Model of Poesy also a Model of Creation? By pursuing interpretative questions like these, the Du Bartas translation emerges as a key resource for assessing how Scott wrote the Model, what makes his arguments distinctive, and how he assimilated insights from contemporary writers, especially Sidney’s account of the poet as maker

Proverb lore in Sidney.
No full textThe purpose of this study is to show the use of proverbs in the works of Sir Philip Sidney. The method has been to select from the author's works passages which in sentiment and style seemed to indicate the manner of the proverb. These, in turn, have been sought out in established collections of proverbs and in the writings of other authors contemporaneous with, preceding, or succeeding Sidney, such as would seem to indicate that the passages in question were, or had been, or came to be in current circulation as proverbial sayings: that they occurred in other writings with a definite, clearly defined meaning such as that employed in Sidney, and maintained a certain characteristic rigidity of form which together with their content would seem to identify them as proverbs. Such a study has already been made of the works of Lyly, Pettie, Spenser, and Shakespeare, but until now no such analysis has been made of the works of Sidney. In each instance the proverb from Sidney occurs first under the heading which announces its theme, and to establish it as a true proverb parallels, chiefly early and contemporary, are cited. The titles are original and by no means arbitrary. Where possible, actual proverbs have been preferred as headings. They have not been arranged alphabetically in strict adherence to the first word occurring in the title, but rather, according to some key-word which seems best to sum up the meaning of the passage or phrase in question.
Following the main text are four appendices containing related material quoted from Sidney which throw light on his character and style of writing. Appendix A contains a group of sententious sayings for which sufficient evidence was not found to justify their consideration as proverbs; in Appendix B brief descriptions and characterizations, especially those containing humor, have been selected in Appendix C (an incidental study) attention has been given to passages relating to music and its coordination with poetry; in Appendix D the spiritual nature of Sidney and his attitude towards his own literary attainments are the motives of the selections
