Rather than simply offering an account of what these authors read, Engel focuses principally on the overlapping rhetorical and iconic assumptions of the Art of Memory and its relation to chiasmus in order to illustrate the authors' profound debt to the past. 517 3 $aMemory, melancholy, and the emblematic tradition 606 $aMemory in literature 606 $aChiasmus 606 $aMelancholy in literature 606 $aInfluence (Literary, artistic, etc.) 615 0$aMemory in literature. 615 0$aChiasmus. 615 0$aMelancholy in literature. 615 0$aInfluence (Literary, artistic, etc.) 676 $a813/.309 700 $aEngel$b William E.$f1957-,$01551414 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779066903321 996 $aEarly modern poetics in Melville and Poe$93810899 997 $aUNINA
