MODERN AGE

WINTER 2017

21	 John Dryden, "Preface to All for Love," in Of Dramatic Poesy and Other Critical Essays, ed.
George Watson (London: J. M. Dent and Sons, 1962), 1.222.
22	 Wimsatt, "Poetry and Morals," 96-97.
23	 Dryden, "Preface to All for Love," 1.222.
24	 Jonathan Bate, Shakespeare and Ovid (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1993), 214.
25	 For more detail, see R. V. Young, At War with the Word, 128-29.
26	 Wimsatt, "Poetry and Morals," 100.
27	Johnson, Samuel Johnson on Shakespeare, 98.
28	 This is elaborated by R. V. Young, "Hope and Despair in King Lear: The Gospel and the
Crisis of Natural Law," in King Lear: New Critical Essays, ed. Jeffrey Kahan (New York and
London: Routledge, 2008), 253-57.
29	 Joseph Owens, An Elementary Christian Metaphysics (1963; rpt. Houston: Center for
Thomistic Studies, 1985), 111n1, ascribes the first use of the term to Suarez.
30	 Summa Theologiae 1.16.3: "sicut bonum convertitur cum ente, ita et verum. Sed tamen,
sicut bonum addit rationem appetibilis supra ens, ita et verum comparationem ad
intellectum."
31	 Summa Theologiae 1−2.27.1.3: "pulchrum est idem bono, sola ratione differens. Cum
enim bonum sit quod omnia appetunt, de ratione boni est quod in eo quietetur appetitus: sed ad rationem pulchri pertinet quod in eius aspectu seu congitione quietetur
appetitus."
32	 Etienne Gilson, The Elements of Christian Philosophy (1960; rpt. New York: MentorOmega, 1963), 176. I am very much indebted to this book, 149-78, for my discussion of
the transcendentals. See also Owens, 111-27, and Jacques Maritain, Art and Scholasticism and the Frontiers of Poetry, trans. Joseph W. Evans (New York: Charles Scribner's
Sons, 1962), 23-37.
33	Maritain, Art and Scholasticism, 70. Of course Maritain goes on to say, ibidem, "But for
the man working, the work-to-be-made enters-itself-into the line of morality, and
on this ground it is only a means. If the artist took the end of his art or the beauty of
the work for the ultimate end of his operation and therefore for beatitude, he would be
but an idolater."
34	 Flannery O'Connor, "The Church and the Fiction Writer," in Collected Works, ed. Sally
Fitzgerald (New York: Library of America, 1988), 810.
35	 T. S. Eliot, "Burnt Norton" 1, in Four Quartets (New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company,
1943), 4.
