Drama: A Guide to the Study of Plays
ISBN: 9780820444895 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book introduces the elements of drama and the principles behind the reading and study of plays - classical and modern. It makes a special point of seeing drama as intended for acting and performance, and it therefore emphasizes the role of the spectator at a play and the sort of theatre for which drama was written. The performance approach to the study of plays finally clarifies the different kinds of drama (comedy, tragedy, melodrama, and farce) and identifies its forms (realism, stylization, and symbolism). The book draws on specific examples of drama, is rich in helpful charts and...

Modern Drama in Theory and Practice: Volume 2, Symbolism, Surrealism and the Absurd
ISBN: 9780521296298 / Angielski / Miękka / 1983 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book was first published in 1981. The theories of Wagner and Nietzsche provide the basic principles for this volume, disseminated by the work of Appia and Craig, and affecting the later plays of Ibsen, Maeterlinck, and Lugne-Poe's Theatre de Le'Oeuvre. Jarry is seen as the precursor of surrealism; later symbolist elements are found in the plays of Claudel, Giraudoux, Yeats, Eliot, Lorca and Pirandello. Artaud's theatre of cruelty is related to the work of Peter Brook. The theatre of the absurd is illustrated in Sartre, Beckett, Pinter and Ionesco. Recent avant-garde theatre in America...

Drama Stage and Audience
ISBN: 9780521098694 / Angielski / Miękka / 1975 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book shows how a play 'works' in the theatre: how it generates life, meaning and excitement on the stage for the audience. It is self evident that a play must communicate or it is not a play at all. Professor Styan argues that, while communication in drama begins with the script, the value or power of a play must be tested upon an audience. In the theatre experience, it is not so much the elements of drama on the stage or the perceptions of the audience which are important, as the relationships between them. It follows that the study of drama is the study of how the stage compels its...

The Elements of Drama
ISBN: 9780521092012 / Angielski / Miękka / 1960 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This is an introduction to the drama, singling out and discussing its various elements, with detailed and generous quotation from masterpieces. Styan emphasizes that plays are meant to be judged in performance, not in the study, and that the play is something created by a co-operation of author, actor, producer and audience. The actor is doing something for the author's words; he is making the play work; and so is the spectator as he responds to the art of the actor, the producer and the playwright. It is a unique relationship, and the play in performance must be judged by 'theatrical'...

For a full understanding of any text, careful consideration must be given to its life in performance. In this rewarding study of four of Chekhov's major plays - Uncle Vanya, The Seagull, The Cherry Orchard and Three Sisters - J. L. Styan demonstrates the development of Chekhov's skills as a dramatist and discusses stage action, portrayal of character, differing twentieth-century productions and the audience reactions they evoked.

Restoration Comedy in Performance
ISBN: 9780521274210 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Restoration comedy disappeared from the stage for nearly 200 years until it was revived early this century. Without the benefit of a performance tradition has suffered from an inappropriate literary and moralistic criticism which continues to this day. Yet this brilliant court and coterie comedy of sexual and social behaviour was an extraordinary success in its own time, and enjoys a unique place in theatrical history as an example of the interplay possible between the stage and the audience. In this book John Styan persuades us that only through a performance approach to the great plays of...

Modern Drama in Theory and Practice: Volume 3, Expressionism and Epic Theatre
ISBN: 9780521296304 / Angielski / Miękka / 1983 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Buchner is the forerunner of expression, followed by Wedekind and Strindberg. The style is then traced from Kaiser and Toller to O'Neill, Wilder and the later O'Casey. Important producers are Reinhardt and Meyerhold. Epic theatre is studied from Piscator and Brecht to Durrenmatt and Weiss, Arden and Bond, and is seen as flourishing in offshoots of documentary theatre. This book was first published in 1981."

Max Reinhardt
ISBN: 9780521295048 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Max Reinhardt (1873 1943), one of the major theatre figures of the twentieth century, was among the first to establish the importance of the director in modern theatre. His fame outside Germany rests somewhat unfairly on his distorted image as producer of giant, Gothic spectacles staged in vast auditoria or cathedral squares. In this book Professor Styan is concerned to illustrate Reinhardt's astonishing versatility as director of more than six hundred productions, which together cover almost all the dramatic genres and all the major theatrical movements of the time. Professor Styan explains...

France and Iraq: Oil, Arms and French Policy Making in the Middle East
ISBN: 9781845110451 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) France's opposition to the Iraq war in 2003 was greeted with surprise and outrage by Anglo-American politicans. But as David Styan argues in his penetrating new book, Chirac's stance was consistent with a decades-long reorientation of French foreign policy. Styan dissects the processes by which a country, notorious for its suppression of Algerian independence, came to cast itself as the anti-imperialist champion of the Arab world.

The English Stage: A History of Drama and Performance
ISBN: 9780521556361 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 452 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The English Stage tells the story of English drama through its many changes in style and convention from medieval times to the present day. John Styan analyzes the key features of staging, including early street theater and public performance, the evolution of the playhouse and the private space, and the pairing of theory and stagecraft in the works of modern dramatists. Giving a critical performance analysis, the author closely examines a few key plays from each age to demonstrate how they succeed on stage. He also focuses on several major playwrights--Marlowe, Shakespeare, Jonson, and...

Modern Drama in Theory and Practice: Volume 1, Realism and Naturalism
ISBN: 9780521296281 / Angielski / Miękka / 1983 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This 1981 volume begins with the naturalistic revolt in France against traditional styles of theatre. As realism becomes a European movement the account moves from Paris to the Meiningen company and Ibsen's work as producer and play-wright in Oslo, Chekhov's in Moscow, Shaw's in London, Synge's in Dublin. Among the producers are Antoine, Brahm, Grein, Granville-Baker, Nemirovich-Danchenko and Stanislavsky. The early days of the Irish Dramatic Movement and the chief realistic directors and critics in the USA after Belasco are considered; the tradition is shown to persist in the work of...

Shakespeare's Stagecraft
ISBN: 9780521094351 / Angielski / Miękka / 1967 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) For many years, critics and students of Shakespeare have tended to stress that his plays are poetic structures embodying 'themes', and these structures have been analysed in great detail. Professor Styan advocates another approach. The plays were written for acting, in a theatre of a particular type. If we ask what effects this kind of theatre encouraged and how Shakespeare exploited them, the plays are seen as a sequence of stage-effects, planned with great art so as to enrich, reinforce and modify each other. Professor Styan begins with the known facts about the Elizabethan theatre,...

The Dark Comedy
ISBN: 9780521095297 / Angielski / Miękka / 1968 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Much of twentieth-century drama defies the traditional pigeon-holes of tragedy and comedy: the heroes are not straightforwardly heroic; the subject-matter seems at some times grimly realistic and at others nearer to pure fantasy. Professor Styan explains and illuminates the nature of this dark, paradoxical comedy. He reminds us, first, that this is not a purely modern phenomenon: many great plays of the past have similarly defied classification and have called for an equally vacillating response from their audience. But nonetheless this dramatic genre has had its clearest expression in the...

Perspectives on Shakespeare in Performance
ISBN: 9780820444260 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Perspectives on Shakespeare in Performance brings together Professor Styan s thoughts on Shakespeare as a playwright who wrote essentially for the stage. As we read Shakespeare s text, the sense of performance constantly reminds us that a play is a complete experience in a particular time and place, one always aimed at an audience in the theatre. Individual chapters touch on key elements such as the Elizabethan theatre in action, the way its open stage space controlled Shakespeare s character and scene building, and the spectator s perception of the unfolding drama. The entire study is...

Matrix Tricks for Linear Statistical Models: Our Personal Top Twenty
ISBN: 9783642104725 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 486 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In teaching linear statistical models to first-year graduate students or to final-year undergraduate students there is no way to proceed smoothly without matrices and related concepts of linear algebra; their use is really essential. Our experience is that making some particular matrix tricks very familiar to students can substantially increase their insight into linear statistical models (and also multivariate statistical analysis). In matrix algebra, there are handy, sometimes even very simple "tricks" which simplify and clarify the treatment of a problem-both for the student and for the...
