Mehtonen, Päivi
Obscure Language, Unclear Literature. Theory and Practice from Quintilian to the Enlightenment
Finnish Academy of Science and Letters
Annales Academiae Scientiarum Fennicae. Humaniora 320
Saarijärvi 2003, 228 pp.
Obscure Language, Unclear Literature vigorously confronts an intractable problem of literature study: the early attempts to articulate what is conceived as being obscure, unsayable, difficult. Unwilling to accept the ubiquitous explanation of obscurity as a characteristic of modern and postmodern writing only, Mehtonen traces the continuity of theories within the pre-modern formation of literary study in the arts of poetics, rhetoric, grammar and dialect.
