Medea, Hippolytus, Electra, Helen
ISBN: 9780198149668 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This new translation brings to life the most profound tragedies of Euripides, described by Aristotle as "the most tragic of the poets." In these plays, Euripides places his characters under the pressure of intolerable circumstances, revealing them, to use his own words, "as they are." Responsive to the fate of women, these plays give voice to a howl of protest against the world in which we live. Full explanatory notes accompany this translation. Edith Hall provides a substantial general introduction and select bibliography.

Terence: The Comedies
ISBN: 9780198149712 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Terence (?184-159 BC) was the outstanding comic playwright of his generation at Rome and one of the founding fathers of European comic drama. His plays have been imitated by authors as diverse as the nun Hrothswitha in the tenth century and P. G. Wodehouse in the twentieth. They deal with the love-life of adolescent boys and with associated tensions in their relations with their fathers. They show love triumphing over obstacles of various kinds, and they also portray the problems that arise from ignorance, misunderstanding, and prejudice. They are true to universal elements of human...

Greek Tragedy and the Historian
ISBN: 9780198149873 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Tragedy was central to the experience of being a fifth-century Athenian citizen. Tragedy explored fundamental issues of religion, of ethics, of civic ideology, and we should expect it to be a central source for the reconstruction and analysis of the Athenian thought and world. This collection of eleven papers investigates the methods and pitfalls of using tragedy to illuminate fifth-century thought, culture, and society.

Frogs
ISBN: 9780198150053 / Starogrecki / Miękka / 1994 / 414 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Among extant Greek comedies, the Frogs is unique for the light it throws on Classical Greek attitudes toward tragedy and literature in general. It merits a much more extensive commentary than it has so far received, and the establishment of the text itself has rested for over a century on collations which were inadequate and inaccurate. At the same time, its most problematic passages have been the subject, in recent years, of more scholarly articles than those of any other Greek play. In this introduction, edition, and commentary, Sir Kenneth Dover presents the relevant data, arguments, and...

Heraclidae
ISBN: 9780198150244 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This edition and commentary provides an invaluable introduction to one of Euripides' lesser-known plays. The play is centered round the fortunes of the children of Heracles and their persecution at the hands of the king of Athens, Eurystheus. Wilkins's commentary interprets the poetic and dramatic features of the play, and also locates it in its cultural setting, discussing its importance to the understanding of Greek cults and religious rituals. The Greek text matches that of the Oxford Classical Text.

Birds
ISBN: 9780198150831 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 800 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This is the first comprehensive edition in any language of the Birds, a play generally recognized as one of Aristophanes' masterpieces--both for its imaginative plot and for the charm and originality of its lyrics. The commentary gives generous help with the translation, for the less advanced student of Greek, and also with interpretation and the lyric meters, as well as fully discussing the staging. The introduction discusses the nature of the play; its historical and mythological background; the history of the text, including the contributions of ancient scholars recorded in the scholia,...

This book is the second of three volumes of a new prose translation of Euripides' most popular plays. The first three tragedies translated in this volume illustrate Euripides' extraordinary dramatic range.

Characters and Authors in Luigi Pirandello
ISBN: 9780198151760 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Luigi Pirandello (1867-1936) is best known in the English-speaking world for his radical challenge to traditional Western theatre with plays such as Six Characters in Search of an Author. This book argues for the centrality of the character in all of Pirandello's writings - novels, short stories, and essays as well as plays. It explores the different ways in which his fictional and dramatic characters struggle to sustain an identity of their own, tell their life-stories, and assert themselves before their most prominent antagonist, the author himself.

Word as Action: Racine, Rhetoric, and Theatrical Language
ISBN: 9780198151852 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hawcroft presents an exploration of the theatrical qualities of the language of France's greatest tragedian, Jean Racine, taking as its analytical tool two neglected parts of rhetoric--inventio and dispositio. Racine's dialogue is exciting, Hawcroft argues, because he makes persuasive interaction of characters a key feature of his dramatic technique. This book shows how Racine deploys persuasion in well-defined contexts: trials, embassies, and councils; informal oratory as protagonists try to manipulate each other and their confidants in order to make their own views and wishes prevail;...

This new verse translation of the plays and fragments of Menander (341-290 BC), with explanatory notes and introduction, follows the text of Menander closely but attempts to fill some of the gaps by supplements based on the dramatic situation and surviving words in the damaged papyri, so that the reader has, as far as possible, a consecutive text.

The Andromache and Euripidean Tragedy
ISBN: 9780198152972 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Andromache has long been disparaged despite being a brilliant piece of theater. In this book Dr. Allan draws attention to the neglected artistry of this very impressive and intriguing text. Through careful analysis the Andromache emerges as a play that poses fundamental questions, especially about the polarity of Greek and barbarian, and the morality of the gods. Dr. Allan shows how the play also challenges revenge as a motive for action, and explores the role of women as wives, mothers, and victims of war, be they Greek or Trojan, victorious or defeated. These are among the central...

This book is a lively and topical study of the teaching and criticism of Shakespeare in South Africa. Johnson covers a number of key historical moments in the interpretation of Shakespeare from the early nineteenth century to the present day, and uses a wide range of source materials to detail the formulation of a literary education policy in South Africa. Johnson's work will serve as a significant resource for South African cultural studies, while furthering the debates on the neo-colonial use of English literature and on the conditions of cultural assimilation.

The Making of the National Poet: Shakespeare, Adaptation and Authorship, 1660-1769
ISBN: 9780198183235 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The century between the Restoration and David Garrick's Stratford Jubilee saw William Shakespeare's promotion from the status of archaic, rustic playwright to that of England's timeless Bard, and with it the complete transformation of the ways in which his plays were staged, published, and read. But why Shakespeare? and what different interests did this process serve? The Making of the National Poet is the first full-length study since the 1920s of the Restoration's and eighteenth century's revisions and revaluations of Shakespeare, and the first to consider the period's much-reviled stage...

Restoration Theatre and Crisis
ISBN: 9780198183877 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Restoration Theatre and Crisis is a seminal study of the drama of the Restoration, in particular that of the Popish Plot and Exclusion Crisis. This was the time of unprecedented political partisanship in the theatre. This book considers all the known plays of this period, including works by Dryden and Behn, in their historical context. It examines the complex ways in which the drama both reflected and intervened in the political process, at a time when the crisis fractured an already fragile post-interregnum consensus, and modern party political methods first began to develop.

Henry VI, Part I: The Oxford Shakespeare
ISBN: 9780198183921 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Henry VI: Part One is a dramatic tale of the lives of soldiers, diplomats, kings, and insurrectionists. It depicts the fractious instability of the court and nobility of fifteenth-century England, and their squabbles with their French counterparts.
Despite its debut performance in 1592, however, Henry VI: Part One does not appear in printed form until some thirty years later, in the 1623 folio. There are many questions, therefore, surrounding exactly how many people wrote the play, when they did so, how it was performed, who played what part, and the nature of the...
