Carefully Corrected / Mutilated Mess: Ossian's Textual Legacies (2015)

Barr, Rebecca Anne; Tonra, Justin

Abstract:

Conference paper
Controversies over legitimacy are an essential part of the literary reception and cultural meaning (Mulholland 394) of James Macpherson s Ossian poems. Many revisionist readings of Ossian attempt to preserve the text from contamination by its author, quarantining the cultural legacy of the first complete edition of the Ossian poems, The Works of Ossian (1765), by disregarding its successor, The Poems of Ossian (1773). Thus, Howard Gaskill, modern editor of Ossian (Edinburgh UP, 1996), characterised the 1773 Poems as a mess which has been bequeathed to us in edition after edition ever since (xxiv). Where Macpherson hopes to have brought the work to a state of correctness, which will preclude all future improvements (1:v), Gaskill laments the authorial vanity which is really behind so many of these revisions (xxiv) and selects the 1765 Works as his copy-text. Though Macpherson described the 1773 edition as [c]arefully corrected, and greatly improved liter...

English Bards and Unknown Reviewers: a Stylometric Analysis of Thomas Moore and the Christabel Review (2015)

English Bards and Unknown Reviewers: a Stylometric Analysis of Thomas Moore and the Christabel Review (2015)

Benatti, Francesca; Tonra, Justin

Abstract:

Journal article
Fraught relations between authors and critics are a commonplace of literary history. The particular case that we discuss in this article, a negative review of Samuel Taylor Coleridge s Christabel (1816), has an additional point of interest beyond the usual mixture of amusement and resentment that surrounds a critical rebuke: the authorship of the review remains, to this day, uncertain. The purpose of this article is to investigate the possible candidacy of Thomas Moore as the author of the provocative review. It seeks to solve a puzzle of almost two hundred years, and in the process clear a valuable scholarly path in Irish Studies, Romanticism, and in our understanding of Moore s role in a prominent literary controversy of the age.

Masks of Refinement: Pseudonym, Paratext, and Authorship in the Early Poetry of Thomas Moore (2014)

Masks of Refinement: Pseudonym, Paratext, and Authorship in the Early Poetry of Thomas Moore (2014)

Tonra, Justin

Abstract:

Journal article
Thomas Moore adopted the pseudonymous persona of Thomas Little in order to place his early amorous poetry within distinct literary, historical, and generic contexts. He was motivated by a desire to provoke a favorable response from his readers by alluding to his literary precursors, but also by a keen awareness that crude biographical inferences were likely to be made on the basis of the poems' morality. These aesthetic and functional objectives are evident in the overlapping irony and sincerity of the volume's paratextual strategies. These strategies consistently tread the nebulous line between playfully activating readerly expectations and protecting Moore's identity, while also revealing the author's responsiveness to the principles and consequences of romantic authorship. The hostile critical reception for this amorous poetry prompted revisions which affirm Moore's conception of authorship as a pliable construction, and reveal the rol...

Nuns writing: Translation, textual mobility and transnational networks (2020)

Nuns writing: Translation, textual mobility and transnational networks (2020)

Coolahan, Marie-Louise

Abstract:

Post-Reformation Catholic religious orders provided women with privileged, multi-layered spaces for authorship, readership, and textual transmission. Exile and travel were imperative for British and Irish women religious, exposing them to cross-cultural encounters and international influences. Convent membership nurtured as co-extensive a set of identities – national and transnational, individual and communal – that, in other contexts, were perceived as conflicting. The kinds of writing produced in these convents ranged from obituary and chronicle history to religious rules and devotional translations. They were required for the female religious community; they addressed, documented, and shaped that female readership. But these texts also participated in the Counter-Reformation effort and sustained interest beyond their initial, female audience. The religious orders, with their pan-European reach, functioned as transnational networks for the circulation of women’s writings. This wid...

Pagan angels and a moral law: Byron and Moore's blasphemous publications (2017)

Pagan angels and a moral law: Byron and Moore's blasphemous publications (2017)

Tonra, Justin

Abstract:

Lord Byron's Cain and Thomas Moore's The Loves of the Angels are linked by critical accusations of blasphemy which threatened their legal and commercial integrity. Comparing the critical and legal reception of the two works and the subsequent responses of the two authors reveals complex formal and informal systems of regulation that were activated in the case of blasphemous publications. Legal findings against Cain provoked Byron to insist on his authorial autonomy but also to acknowledge the growing power and influence of a mass reading public. Moore's substitution of Islam for Christianity at his poem's religious foundation represented a flexible mode of authorship where its broad social and cultural influences were reflected in his recognition of textual contingency. Together, the two cases highlight paradoxes in the legal control of intellectual property and blasphemy in the Romantic period, while the two authors responses provide a means of examining their ...

SALT: Semantically Annotated LATEX (2009)

Groza, Tudor; Handschuh, Siegfried; Kim, Hak Lae

Abstract:

Machine-understandable data constitutes the basis for the Semantic Desktop. We provide in this paper means to author and annotate Semantic Documents on the Desktop. In our approach, the PDF file format is the basis for semantic documents, which store both a document and the related metadata in a single file. To achieve this we provide a framework, SALT that extends the Latex writing environment and supports the creation of metadata for scientific publications. SALT lets the scientific author create metadata while putting together the content of a research paper. We discuss some of the requirements one has to meet when developing such an ontology-based writing environment and we describe a usage scenario.

The creation and circulation of public geographies (2013)

The creation and circulation of public geographies (2013)

Kitchin, Rob; Linehan, Denis; O'Callaghan, Cian; Lawton, Philip

Abstract:

In response to the commentaries, we discuss further how social media disrupts and remakes the creation and circulation of geographical knowledges and potentially reconfigures the moral economy of the social sciences. In particular, we examine questions of what is meant by public geography, the publics which such geographies serve, alternative and complementary approaches to social media, the politics of authorship within collective blogs, the politics and mechanisms of knowledge circulation, and the extent to which social media has an impact beyond the academy, enacting ‘minimal politics’.

The norms of authorship credit: challenging the definition of authorship in the European code of conduct for research integrity (2020)

The norms of authorship credit: challenging the definition of authorship in the European code of conduct for research integrity (2020)

Hosseini, Mohammad; Lewis, Jonathan

Abstract:

The practice of assigning authorship for a scientific publication tends to raise two normative questions: 1) ‘who should be credited as an author?’; 2) ‘who should not be credited as an author but should still be acknowledged?’. With the publication of the revised version of The European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity (ECCRI), standard answers to these questions have been called into question. This article examines the ways in which the ECCRI approaches these two questions and compares these approaches to standard definitions of ‘authorship’ and ‘acknowledgment’ in guidelines issued by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) and the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME). In light of two scenarios and the problems posed by these kinds of ‘real-world’ examples, we recommend specific revisions to the content of the ECCRI in order not only to provide a more detailed account of the tasks deserving of acknowledgment, but to improve the Code’s current d...
