Henry Vaughanの数秘術 Numerology in Henry Vaughan 大木, 富 Ohki, Tom application/pdf The purpose of this paper is to consider the numerology in Henry Vaughan's Silex Scintillans. In the analysis of the relationship between the structure of Vaughan's "The Morning-watch" and the structure of John Milton's "On the Morning of Christ's Nativity," Davies(1975) suggests that Vaughan may have been influenced by the number symbolism inherent in the hermetic philosophy of his twin-brother, Thomas Vaughan (the alchemist). Røstvig(1994) reveals the numerological structures present in Henry Vaughan's poems, and concludes that although George Herbert's The Temple had a great influence on Silex Scintillans, Vaughan's structures are "more easily perceived and the concern with number symbolism more pronounced" than Herbert's. The first section attempts to analyze the symbolism of numbers in "The Morning-watch", which provides a clue to the complex and intricate number symbolism in his poetry. The second section deals with the numerical structures of his pattern poems ("The Passion," "Christ's Nativity," and "Ascension-Hymn"), including the symbolism of numbers found in the circular rhyme schemes of his circle-poems ("Trinity-Sunday" and "The Storm"). The third section treats temporal numerology in "The Jews," "Death," "Rules and Lessons," and "The Dawning." The final section discusses his use of symbolic numbers in "Retirement," "Love-sick," "Faith," "The Agreement," "Isaacs Marriage," "St. Mary Magdalen," "Regeneration," "White Sunday," "H. Scriptures," "The Law, and the Gospel," "Buriall," "Affliction," "Ascension-day," and "The Incarnation, and Passion." 神奈川工科大学 2007-03-20 jpn departmental bulletin paper VoR https://doi.org/10.34411/00000265 http://hdl.handle.net/10368/291 https://kait.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/272 10.34411/00000265 AN10074088 09161899 神奈川工科大学研究報告.A,人文社会科学編 31 1 11 https://kait.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/272/files/kka-031-001.pdf application/pdf 7.3 MB 2010-02-03
