Elizabethan Stage Conventions and Modern Interpreters
ISBN: 9780521311618 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Alan Dessen samples about four hundred manuscripts and printed plays to record the original staging conventions of the age of Shakespeare. After studying the stage properties, movements and configurations implicit in recurrent phrases and stage directions, he concludes that Elizabethan spectators, less concerned with realism than later generations, were used to receiving a kind of theatrical shorthand transmitted by the actors from the playwright. Professor Dessen both describes this shorthand (e.g. the use of nightgowns, boots and dishevelled hair) and draws attention to the implications of...

Elizabethan Drama and the Viewer's Eye
ISBN: 9780807896488 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. With emphasis on the distinctive effects possible on the Elizabethan stage and the evidence concerning stagecraft found in the late morality plays, Dessen focuses on theatrical techniques not readily apparent to the eye of the modern reader. He stresses that, to appreciate the richness of Elizabethan drama, the modern reader must bring to the text the interpretive skills of the critic, the theatrical point of view of the director, and the contextual knowledge of the historian.

Recovering Shakespeare's Theatrical Vocabulary
ISBN: 9780521470803 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Alan Dessen draws on stage directions from hundreds of plays (from 1425 to 1642) to investigate what a playgoer may actually have seen when watching the original production of Hamlet or Macbeth. He argues for the presence of a shared vocabulary among playwrights, players and playgoers geared to a sense of theater that is easily obscured or eclipsed today. Chapters are devoted to such things as early entrances, the sick chair, vanish effects, tomb scenes, and to the staging of places such as a forest, a shop, a study or a house.

Rescripting Shakespeare: The Text, the Director, and Modern Productions
ISBN: 9780521007986 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Alan Dessen focuses on the playtexts used for staging Shakespeare's plays, from almost three hundred productions of the last twenty five years. Dessen examines the process of rescripting--when directors make cuts to streamline the playscript, save running time, etc., and rewriting--when more extensive changes are made. He assesses what is lost and gained by rescripting, and the demands of presenting to contemporary audiences words targeted at players, playgoers, and playhouses that no longer exist. The results are of interest to theatrical professionals and historians.
