Chatterton

Since his play 'Chatterton' is still performed to this day, it might be appropriate to start a Wiki page dedicated to it. Valetude (talk) 11:40, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We hear about Marie Dorval. Fine. But shouldn't Lydia Jane Bunbury get at least a mention by name?Delahays (talk) 22:43, 22 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dance to Music of Time?

Is it worth adding anywhere in here that the perspective of De Vigny is mentioned in The Valley of Bones (by Anthony Powell) in a way that has led one of the foremost critics of Powell to say that the De Vigny perspective embodies Powell's viewpoint? Here is the passage:

"Pennistone [a character in Valley] calls forth the shades of Alfred De Vigny, the French poet who served a fourteen-year military apprenticeship. In a way de Vigny is the raisonneur of The Valley of Bones. His view of the soldier as a 'dedicated person, a sort of monk of war' renouncing 'thought and action' for 'passive obedience' challenges both Gwatkin's 'keenness' and Sayce's 'recalcitrance'".

There's more but that's the gist of the claim. On the one hand, this is pretty interesting. On the other hand, it might be way too much of a digression down one particular rabbit hole to belong in this article, somewhere. Novellasyes (talk) 16:33, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
