Published in Faye & Bond, Supplement, pg. 403, #97. "Rhetoric not only provided a repertoire of compositional techniques but also informed the very habits of mind of medieval writers and readers. The Poetria nova, written by the Englishman Geoffrey of Vinsauf shortly after 1200, was the most influential medieval treatise on rhetorical poetics. Modeled on Horace's Ars poetica, it is an art of poetry (and prose) in 2121 hexameter verses. Like its other chief source the Rhetorica ad Herennium (attributed to Cicero during the Middle Ages), the Poetria nova takes its structure from the five canons of rhetoric. It treats invention, arrangement, style, delivery, and memory, with special attention to amplification and abbreviation, the figures of speech and thought, and the stylistic techniques of 'conversions' and 'determinations.' This synthesis of Horatian and Ciceronian doctrine, combined with an abundance of illustrative set pieces (such as the famous lament for King Richard Lion Heart), was an immediate and lasting success. Geoffrey Chaucer cited the Poetria nova more than once, and a century later Desiderius Erasmus still considered it a major authority on rhetorical composition." (M. Camargo, Introduction to the Revised Edition Translated by M.F. Nims, 2010). "Geoffrey of Vinsauf was a notable medieval scholar whose influence on vernacular literature during the Middle Ages is widely recognized, especially in the later years of that period. Born in England and educated at St. Frideswide's, Oxford, Vinsauf traveled extensively in France and Italy, eventually teaching verse composition in England. His significant contributions to rhetoric include two major works: "The New Poetics," ["Poetria Nova"] [written] around 1210, and "Instruction in the Art and Method of Speaking and Versifying," both of which became essential texts on rhetorical principles. "The New Poetics," a lengthy poem, draws inspiration from classical works by Horace and Cicero, highlighting the enduring legacy of classical rhetoric in medieval scholarship. Vinsauf's teachings. have influenced notable figures, including Geoffrey Chaucer, author of "The Canterbury Tales." [specifically his reference in the 'Nun's Priest Tale'] His works have survived in over two hundred manuscripts, illustrating their widespread adoption and lasting impact on literature and education throughout Europe for three centuries. Despite the scarcity of details about his personal life, Geoffrey of Vinsauf's intellectual contributions continue to be recognized for shaping the literary landscape of his time" (Eric R.
