A Comparative Study of Byrd Songs
A comparative anthology of all of the variedly-bylined texts in William Byrd's linguistic-group, with scholarly introductions that solve previously impenetrable literary mysteries.
This is a comparative anthology of William Byrd's multi-bylined verse, with scholarly introductions to their biographies, borrowings, and generic and structural formulas. The tested Byrd-group includes 30 texts with 29 different bylines. Each of these texts is covered in a separate chronologically-organized section. This anthology includes modernized translations of some of the greatest and the wittiest poetry of the Renaissance. Some of these poems are the most famous English poems ever written, while others have never been modernized before. These poems serve merely as a bridge upon which a very different history of early British poetry and music is reconstructed, through the alternative history of the single ghostwriter behind them.
