    • Spring, 299
    • Modern uses of the term ekphrasis are not always consistent, and have been contested. In 1991, James A. W. Heffernan traced the history of ekphrasis in modern discourse, and noted with dissatisfaction the imprecision and range in its usage. He suggested fixing the meaning of ekphrasis as "the verbal representation of graphic representation" ("Ekphrasis and Representation," NLH 22, 2 [Spring 1991]: 297-316, 299)

    • Ekphrasis Ancient and Modern: The Invention of a Genre
    • [January-March]
    • Heffernan's definition has much to recommend it, but not, according to a recent article by Ruth Webb, historical accuracy ("Ekphrasis Ancient and Modern: The Invention of a Genre," W&I 15, 1 [January-March 1999]: 7-18). She argues that modern definitions of ekphrasis, including Heffernan's, ignore or devise strategies to dismiss the original sense of the term, which referred to description generally, without particular reference to works of visual art. The problem, Webb argues, is that critics commonly go on to assume a continuous tradition of ekphrasis, linking together classical and contemporary discussions of ekphrasis as if they refer to the same thing. In acknowledgement of Webb's work, but mindful that no term has yet been established to replace ekphrasis in referring to descriptions of visual art, I use the term ecphrasis guardedly in this paper, using an anglicized spelling to distance it from the Greek term (that is, "ecphrasis" not "ekphrasis"), while also striving not to contradict that original sense

    • Daniel may have been familiar with this version of the story from Hyginus's fabulae, printed in Basel in 1535: "Amimone Danai filia, dum studiose in sylua uenatur, Satyrum iaculo percussit, earn Satyrus uoluit uiolare. Illa Neptuni fidé implorauit, quo Neptunus cum uenisset, Satyrum abegit, & ipse cum ea concubuit, ex quo conceptu nascitur, Nauplius. Id in quo loco factii est, Neptunus dicitur fuscina percussisse terram, & inde aquam profluxisse, qui Lerneus fons dictus est, & Amimonium flumen" (Hyginus, Fabularum Liber [Basel, 1535; rprt.

    • This story is not included in the popular Latin translations by Sir Thomas More and Desiderius Erasmus, but more than 250 editions of Lucian's works were printed before 1550 in western Europe, at least sixty of which were in Greek (Harry L. Levy, "Introduction," in Lucian, Lucian: Seventy Dialogues, ed. Levy [Norman: Univ. of Oklahoma Press, 1976], pp. xiii-xxiii, xxii). If Daniel read Lucian's Amymone story, he likely did so in Greek, which he might have known from his studies at Oxford. Given that Lucian's version was apparently not readily available even in Latin, let alone English, it is unlikely that it was well known to Elizabethan readers generally

    • Kintgen suggests that since Harvey repeats Erasmus's prescriptions sixty years after their first publication, Erasmus's advice had not been fully adopted by teachers (p. 49). Harvey may, however, have been reinforcing rather than re-introducing Erasmus's theories. For the argument that humanist thinking was slow to penetrate the educational system, see Jo Ann Hoeppner Moran, The Growth of English Schooling, 1340-1548 (Princeton: Princeton Univ. Press, 1985). Her period of study closes about fifteen years before the births of Daniel (1562), Shakespeare (1564), and Drayton (1563)
