In this post, Messeri and I discuss her findings and insights about human engagements with space, science, and anthropological ways of finding a connection to seemingly distant other worlds.
Lisa Messeri: The inspiration for this paper came from encounters with planetary scientists when I could just feel their desire to connect with worlds that are beyond human experience. This desire to connect with the inaccessible is not unusual in scientific work as you point out , but planetary science provides us with a unique edge case because Earth is of course also a planet.
Whereas Mars and exoplanets are impossibly far away, planetary scientists have long recognized that Earth is an interesting object to think with when pondering what other worlds are like. As Apollo astronauts prepared to go to the moon, they underwent geology training in the American West so that they would be prepared for what they might encounter.
They also used that information to determine the planets' sizes and masses. Transient alien limb phenomenon in right frontoparietal infarction. The limb may act as if it has a mind of its own, causing distress to the patients. Common, usual objects were kept in front of him and he was instructed not to touch them. Solidity, and various somatic feelings A changes the shape of body cavities, B resonates with A.
The desert and canyon landscapes of Arizona or Utah continue to invite feelings of the extraterrestrial. The uninhabited stretch of desert surrounding the MDRS habitat had sparse vegetation and a red tinted soil. Confusing our planet for another was done with a joking tone, maintaining the distance between Earth and Mars.
Except for one moment. We were testing soil at the base of a butte one afternoon and as we were preparing to leave the site, the scientists I was with transformed in an instant from diligent, dispassionate workers to excited explorers. They became so excited because here, in the Utah desert, they discovered a rock formation known to exist on Mars.
They had smiles on their faces, holding the formations and discussing them excitedly. As I was unaware of the connection, I observed with confusion the scene playing out in front of me. When the excitement died down, one scientist explained to me the connection between here and Mars. In those moments of flurry and discovery, what I describe as resonance, Earth had been made alien and these scientists were able to walk on Mars. LM: Yes!

What a great connection. Here, we may be inclined to attribute sense to, or interpret, the process by which the raucousness of the doves is mitigated by the cura of Tityrus, insofar as the attention expressed by cura corresponds to a re-hearing of raucae , of which it is almost an anagram. It is easy enough to see an allegory of reading here as the eye of Corydon scans lustro the vestigia of his beloved. In these lines the act of reading is resolved into separate components of sight and sound.
Magnified and projected into the landscape, the act of reading is made strange, its fusion of sight and sound is no longer seamless and automatic, but rather a composition, an event with its own drama. The landscape of the Eclogues , the place in which the singing happens, is reverberant—repeating, but in a different mode, the activity of reading poetry in a locale that makes us experience it in alien terms.
But what is poetry about?

Is raucus an unpleasant sound? Not as much as the English-speaking reader would suppose. It is often used of the roar or resonance of the sea, for instance, as well as of brass instruments, usually in a military context OLD 2b and 3 respectively. Sed, ne vicini nobis sonus obstrepat amnis, gramina linquamus ripamque volubilis undae, namque sub exeso raucum mihi pumice lymphae respondent et obest arguti glarea rivi. Calpurnius Siculus 6. His fellow singer, Lycidas, suggests that they move from the riverside to the more conducive sonic environment of a cave, and when they arrive there Mnasyllus announces that they have exchanged noise for the silence of the cave tacito sonitum mutavimus antro , The re - of resonant is replaced by the ob of obstrepat and obest , and where the prefix re - does occur respondent , 65 it is unpleasant, competitive.
Resonance, on the other hand, figures the opposite of a text that is enclosed in itself.
ALIEN RESONANCE
I have chosen a text that has proven a happy hunting ground for the two main tendencies of English Latin studies, intertextuality and metapoetics. And no one would deny that both approaches are relevant to this text, or that the Eclogues is representative of Roman poetry in that respect. To take metapoetry first.
Too often, at least in the English-speaking world, we have been content to treat the mere fact of metapoetry as the Holy Grail. Metapoetry should be seen as an exploration of what poetry might be, or become, and different poets and works have different things to tell us about it. Instead of saying, for instance, that memory is really a way of talking about allusion, he suggests that we explore how allusion is a way of talking about memory. So, instead of saying that the language and the phenomenon of acoustic resonance in the Eclogues is a figure of intertextuality, we could think about how intertextuality is a way of figuring resonance and resonance itself as the essence of poetry.
Mahapralaya
We have no difficulty in acknowledging that the backward-looking intertextual echoes are internal to the Eclogues. As Shane Butler I am very much aware that the lines of Latin poetry that I read out at the meeting of an international group of European scholars for which this paper was conceived would sound very different when read by others in the same group.
It has always puzzled me that, though Latin has been pronounced and performed in very different ways at different times and in different countries, there is general agreement on what sounds good, on the mellifluous and the harsh. The sound of the Eclogues is very important, on that we agree. But on what that sound actually is we have different opinions, or at least practices.
