Palemon and Lavinia, lovers featuring in an interpolated tale in James Thomson's "Autumn" (1730), enjoyed multi-medial lives in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In visually embodied form, they embellished objects ranging from jewellery, ceramic jugs, and oil paintings to fireplace tiles, printed fabrics, furniture, and fire-screens. These objects functioned as material texts and extended the reading experience of Thomson's tale, but they also reshaped it by embedding it within cultural practices of consumption that differed, depending on the owners' and users' gender and social status, as well as literacy. This lecture will discuss how female needleworkers introduced Palemon and Lavinia in their silk-embroidered pictures by adapting two printed visual remediations of the lovers based respectively on a book illustration by William Hamilton and a separately issued print by William Lawrenson the former published in 1802, the latter having already been issued in 1780. Rather than copying these printed visual interpretations of the lovers' encounter and courtship accurately, the silkwork images represent reimaginings of both the visual and typographical sources, altering the iconic narratives of the compositions and expanding them to advance rewritings of the tale and the lovers' relationship that are especially framed by the needleworkers' identity-formational practice of moral self-representation. These transmedia narratives will be shown to offer discrete interpretations and extensions of Thomson's tale. At times, they recast the Georgic inscription of the tale in terms of a sentimental politics that obscures the (apparent) social difference between Palemon and Lavinia. At others, they introduce Lavinia's father as a mnemonic link between the two lovers that authorizes the union and the young people's love. At yet others, they extend the designs spatially and diachronically by anticipating the result of the courtship, that is the union of Palemon and Lavinia.

帕勒蒙和拉维妮娅这对恋人出现在詹姆斯·汤姆森的《秋》（1730年）中一个插入的故事中，在十八、十九世纪获得了多媒介的传播。以视觉化的形式，这两个人物装饰了从珠宝、陶瓷壶、油画到壁炉瓷砖、印花织物、家具和火炉屏等物品。这些物品作为物质文本扩展了汤姆森故事的阅读体验，但也通过将其嵌入不同的消费文化中而重塑了故事的意义，这些文化因物主和使用者的性别、社会地位和文化程度而异。此次讲座将探讨女性刺绣者如何在其丝绸刺绣作品中，通过对基于威廉·汉密尔顿的书籍插图（1802年出版）和威廉·劳伦森的独立版画（1780年出版）的两幅印刷图像进行改编，引入了帕勒蒙和拉维妮娅的形象。这些丝绸刺绣作品并未完全复制恋人相遇和求爱情景的印刷视觉解释，而是重新构想了这些视觉和文字来源，改变了作品的象征性叙述，并通过针线工艺的道德自我表达实践，拓展了对故事和恋人关系的诠释。讲座将展示，这些跨媒介叙事提供了汤姆森故事的独特解释与延伸：有时它们将故事中的农耕主题重新诠释为一种感伤的政治，使帕勒蒙和拉维妮娅之间的（表面上的）社会差异模糊化；有时则引入拉维妮娅的父亲作为二人之间的记忆性联系，为他们的结合和爱情赋予合法性；还有时，这些设计通过空间和时间的延伸，展现了恋爱结果——帕勒蒙和拉维妮娅的结合。
