One essay entirely out of place here is Joseph
Ricapito's allegorization of Gongora's Fabula de Polifemo y
Galatea. The earliest possible
evidence of Jewish allusions to the Canticle as allegorization of
mystical marriage between God and Israel is attributed in Talmudic
sources to Rabbi Akiba in the early second century, and the full-blown
allegorization of the targum on the Canticle dates no earlier than the
early Islamic period, by which time this interpretation was well
established in Jewish biblical scholarship (Murphy: 11-41; Pope:
89-112). The visual feast of colored light, created in four
standard, factory-issue hues, resists transcendental allegorization as
profoundly as do Matisse's blue and yellow stained-glass windows in
the chapel at Vence; the color pairings are distributed throughout the
work without apparent explanation, satisfying only the most basic
requirement of variation. |
