- Title
PILLAGING POPE: RECYCLING POETRY FOR NEW CANTATA TEXTS.
- Authors
Rice, Paul F.
- Abstract
The author focuses on the sources for the cantata texts in "Six Cantatas For a Voice and Instruments," by Thomas Arne. The author claims that an examination of Alexander Pope's poem "Autumn, The Third Pastoral, or Hylas and Ægon" has led him to conclude that it is the source of Cantata No. 5. The author presents a portion of the cantata text and discusses the elements of Pope's poem that were changed by Arne in the cantata text.
