Selden and Milton on the Bible

The Bible provides the scope for Selden and Milton to display their brilliance: one as a great scholar boldly following his vision of the truth wherever it leads, the other as a creative genius finally overcoming his strong precursor, the King James Bible, to become the supreme poet of the hexaëmeron. Selden focuses his biblical Hebraic and post-biblical rabbinic scholarship on New Testament passages, offering immensely learned and sometimes startlingly original readings of the Apostolic Decree (Acts 15:20, 29; and 21:25) and four events in the life of Jesus: his rebuke of the Jews regarding korban (Mark 7:9–12); his pronouncement that “the truth shall make you free” (John 8:31–2; his driving the money-changers from the temple (John 2:13–17); and his trial (Matt. 26:63–6). If God is Milton’s father, and his scriptural word is the strongest of all precursor texts, then the King James Bible is the most intimidating version of that text. Milton’s marginal Hebrew substitutions for the KJB Psalm translations (1648) reveal anxiety and defensiveness. But the creation account in book 7 of Paradise Lost compresses the verses of Genesis 1, reducing them to their constituent elements and then outdoing them with the energy and magnificence of his interlinear poetic commentary. The poet’s anxiety-free transcendence of the KJB in book 7 can be seen as part of a general sense of joyous creativity.

Creative Genius

This chapter focuses on the creativity in the UK, which manifests itself from the street music of Tottenham to the glamour of the Oscars and the James Bond movies. It focuses on the glittering successes of UK creativity as symbols of a much broader creative and inventive culture that make a muscular contribution to the UK's GDP, defy the usual rules of trading relations, and offer great hope for a rebooted UK. It also recounts how creativity in the shape of live performances and museum exhibitions was crushed by Covid-19, lockdown, and social distancing. The chapter highlights resilience as the glory of UK creativity, citing actor Bertie Carvel who took the initiative and organised a lockdown theatrical festival broadcast on Radio 3 in the summer of 2020. It looks at gaming, with its embrace of artifical intelligence, as a potent symbol of largely unseen achievements, such as the Google-owned machine 'AlphaGo.'

Dante and His Poem as Perceived by Boris Zaitsev

The present article analyzes the last work written by Boris Zaitsev before emigrating from Russia: the article Dante and His Poem dedicated to Divine Comedy. At first glance, the article may seem to be a collection of sundry thoughts about Dante and his work. At the same time, its deeper meaning comes to the fore when one examines the main points made by the author and incorporates the article into his oeuvre as a whole. In the article, Zaitsev focuses on Dante as a human being (“history of the soul”) and on Divine Comedy as a fruit of his creative genius. Having lost his native country even before emigrating from it, Zaitsev desperately began to search for the “truth” in both life and work. In this quest, the exile and truth-seeker Dante served as Zaitsev’s Virgil in his voyage through unknown and often hostile territories. From this standpoint, Divine Comedy acquired a unique meaning for Zaitsev, who began to treat it as a Gospel of sorts. A comparison of this article with Zaitsev’s next work, the essay Saint Sergius of Radonezh that he wrote in emigration, shows the unified perspective of the writer’s work: the connection between truth and the Truth, between poetic word and the Word- Logos. Dante and Saint Sergius are shown as beacons and waymarks in the “gloomy forest” of life. Their life experience, described in the context of their difficult times, served as a source of strength and solace for Zaitsev and offered models of existential behaviour that helped him to break out from horror and gloom towards light and Truth.
