Description: Cloth, 8vo, 23 cm, xii, 454 pp, [2] leaves of plates. "In 1850, John Payne Collier was among the foremost scholars of his generation: a man of prodigious learning, the pre-eminent editor of Shakespeare, the author of over forty books of critical commentary and literary history. Ten years later, Collier was the object of universal contempt and execration. At the summit of his career, he was accused of outrageous crimes of forgery and theft, and almost overnight he became one of the most despised men in England, condemned to live another thirty years in unremitting disgrace and increasing self-recrimination. When he died in 1883 at the age of 94, his name was among the most infamous in literary history. It has remained so.This book examines Collier's life and the calamity which overtook it. It describes his career as journalist, as editor, and as scholar, and his friendships and quarrels over a period of seventy years. In particular, it investigates the British Museum 'Inquisition' which precipitated the accusations against him, and it pieces together the true story of the ensuing controversy from hitherto ignored documents and unpublished journals and correspondence. It is a story of scholarly deception, of intellectual overreaching, of secrets kept, of mysteries unexplored. It concludes - contrary to the judgement of the last century - that Collier was probably innocent of the charges against him and that his accusers knew he was innocent. The defamation of John Payne Collier may have been the most successful conspiracy in literary history." - from the blurb. Very Good in price-clipped dustwrapper.

Description: pp. 169-192. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With author's dedication to William Speed Hill. - A very good and clean copy. - From the text: Although everyone pays lip service to Shakespeare's mastery of blank verse, few analysts of his style have considered metrical technique as a source of meaning. One reason for neglect of Shakespeare's metrics is the lack of a broadly accepted theoretical framework. Professional prosodists in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries ornamented the elements of traditional metrical analysis with such an array of "allowable" deviations, explained in an arcane and often inappropriately classical terminology, that it lost all value as a means of understanding verse. Furthermore, opposing camps in the wars of the prosodists disputed stress prosody versus temporal prosody, and the battle became a series of inconclusive skirmishes, with the stressers having a numerical superiority but never completely vanquishing their foes. As linguists took an interest in metrics - beginning with Otto Jespersen in 1900, and increasing markedly in the past thirty years - other deficiencies of the traditional approach became evident, the most obvious being its limitation to two levels of stress and its rigid adherence to the foot.
