  Biester - "A pleasant and terrible reverence": maintenance of majesty in Sidney's 'New Arcadia.
Sidney's portraits of rulers in the New Arcadia reflect his sensitivity to the claims of each side, and what emerges most clearly from these portraits and from the incomplete plot is his belief that rulers must provoke the admiration of their subjects or lose all.
Sidney recognizes that how one seems to rule is at least as important as how one rules: quiet virtue may bring most credit in the private, ethical sphere, but political acts must be open to all eyes in order to have their proper effect.
Sidney both teaches his readers that spectacle is crucial to power and offers them lively images of the kind he describes in the Defence, moving readers to emulate or avoid the styles of rule they depict.

 The Use of Petrarchian Convention in Philip Sidney's Astrophil and Stella - Associated Content
Although many of the sequences are predictable in their course of recitation, Sidney still finds a way to infuse a force and energy into his writing that causes the reader, not only to be caught by the paradoxical verses but also to question the entire psychoanalytical process of love.
He dissects, explores and analyses love in all its different facets and stages, laying bare to us the mechanism and etiology of love, essentially taking the reader on a tour of the lover’s mind and the psychological voyage that it induces upon all those that it wounds with it’s pointed arrow.
While this practice of the embodiment of the object of their desire as love itself was common among earlier poets, Sidney uses this convention, not to further glorify his love with wit and poetic prose, but rather uses it to employ an emphatic change from wit into grotesquerie and bitterness.

 Astrophil and Stella
Love itself has not yet conquered Stella, so she is unready for a lover; the implication is that an ambitious man should not try for advancement until the path is prepared for him to succeed.
Sidney first establishes this court as the contemporary English one, bringing up questions of Polish sovereignty and of rebellion in Scotland and Ireland; this would have struck his coterie readers in particular because they would have recognised the allusion to his father, the former Lord Deputy of Ireland.
Sidney argues for poetic freedom and the licence to satirise, often with a certain amount of resentment since he has to do this under the distancing protection of love-poetry and even then it can only be circulated amongst sympathisers.

 Love, Sidney   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
I loved this show; I remember there was a "very special" two -parter where this hot runaway teenage chick comes to live with Sidney and the little girl.
She welcomed the help of her friend "Sidney" because she knew him to be an intellegent and sensitive person who would be a positive influence on her daughter, and welcomed him into her home and into their lives.
Sidney was lonely but able to realize that the friendship of Swoozie and her small daughter furnished him with an [albeit] temporary family, and he was willing to settle for a tenuous relationship because it filled many of his needs for the moment.

 Love, Sidney - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Love, Sidney was a 1981-1983 comedy television series that starred Tony Randall.
The show is remembered best as a milestone in the progress toward public acceptance of gay characters on television, but often regarded as a seriously flawed one.
The premise of the show was established in a TV movie aired earlier the same year, entitled Sidney Shorr: A Girl's Best Friend.

 Episode Guide: LOVE, SIDNEY
Though Sidney was morally conservative to the point of prudishness, the show was considered controversial in its day because Sidney's oft-alluded-to past lover was Martin, a man. The scripts soft-pedaled Sidney's homosexuality, particularly once right-wing organizations threatened to boycott the show's sponsors.
Sidney is furious about the grueling demands that Patti's ballet teacher (guest star Suzanne Farrell, a ballerina) puts on her young students.
Sidney saves the life of a lonely man (guest star Howard Hesseman) who is contemplating suicide because he is gay and fears that no one will ever accept him.

 Sidney's Arcadia at the University of Utah   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Sidney was an idealist and a statesman first; one of the reasons he found so much time for writing was that his commitment to idealism brought him disfavor in the eyes of Queen Elizabeth, culminating in his unwanted advice concerning her marriage.
Sidney was influenced in his education by the study of Machiavelli, and this influence is reflected in Amphialus, who feels justified in shedding the blood of numerous innocents (Argalus and Parthenia, most notably) in seeking the favor of Philoclea.
Sidney was certainly not convinced of the principle of ends justifying the means; Amphialus regrets the deaths of these two characters, and is finally brought to question his own identity as a man driven by passion.

 Poems of Sidney Lanier - Preface
Sidney Lanier was born at Macon, Ga., on the third of February, 1842.
Sidney's vessel was captured, and he was for five months in Point Lookout prison, until he was exchanged (with his flute, for he never lost it), near the close of the war.
We constantly notice in his verse that dainty effect which the ear loves, and which comes from deft marshalling of consonants and vowels, so that they shall add their suppler and subtler reinforcement to the steady infantry tramp of rhythm.

 Love is not Love
Largely because of his prestige as a martyred culture-hero, Sid­ney raised the status of sonnets in the hierarchy of genres within the literary system of his time and virtually authorized poets of different social classes to undertake the composition of amorous sequences.
Love lyrics could express figuratively the realities of suit, service, and recompense...in the courts of Southern France and Southern Germany in the late Middle Ages, where rivalry with peers for status, money and power could be fictionalized as the wooing of a woman of superior station.
In context, Lady Rich was a symbolic fig­ure for Sidney: her fictionalization as Stella put her at the center of a constellation of issues larger than those involved in a private’ “tragicomedy of love.” When Sidney wrote the sonnets (or gathered them into a structured sequence), he was and he was known as...

THE first episode of ''Love, Sidney'' begins with a tearful reunion and ends with another tearful reunion, but it's possible that all this sentimentality is just a way of getting the show on the road.
Sidney (Tony Randall), a fussy, lonely man, is first seen pining for little 6 1/2-year-old Patti (Kaleena Kiff), whom he evidently helped raise.
Sidney's main traits on this show will evidently be his sweetness, his fastidiousness, and his incorrigible desire to meddle in everyone else's affairs.

Sidney Poitier had three films released in 1967, in my opinion this was the best of them.
I am amazed that Sidney was not nominated for the Oscar in 1967, but given his performances in all three films, it's obvious the voters were torn.
Sidney Poitier had a year in 1967 that, due to the length of time it takes to make a film these days, may not be repeated now, that is 3 starring roles in three extremely profitable films which does not happen that quite often.

 BBC - Comedy Guide - Love, Sidney
Five years later, when Laurie wants out, to go to LA and marry, Sidney fights her in court for custody of the child he has helped to raise, the judgement giving him summer access to the young girl (played by Kaleena Kiff).
However, and this is the crux of this sitcom's problem, Sidney is no longer gay - indeed, his sexuality is no longer referred to any which way.
Sure, the prim Sidney still mothered his two females, Laurie continued the cutting remarks and Patti was the kind of wisecracking pig-tailed brat usually seen in US sitcoms, but that was all.

 ENGL 381 Course Highlights, 11.3.99
Sir Philip Sidney’s Astrophil and Stella (published 1591, after Sidney’s early death) is the first complete sonnet sequence written in English:
The sonneteers’ often deploy this "poetic logic" in quite sophisticated ways, forcing the reader to remain alert to the linear unfolding of meaning, the movement of the poet's thought, the rules of syntax.
This is particularly striking in Sidney’s work, where often a poem’s development of a thought or idea/ideal will suddenly be overturned by a dramatic final line reversal (cf.
