Shakespeare's Alternative Tales
ISBN: 9780582244849 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A knowledge of the history and evolution of the tales on which Shakespeare drew in the composition of his plays is essential for the understanding of his work. In re-telling a particular story, a Renaissance writer was not simply reshaping the structure of the narrative but participating in a species of debate with earlier writers and the meanings their tales had accrued. The stories upon which Shakespeare's plays are constructed did not descend to him as innocent collections of incidents, but brought with them considerable cultural baggage, substantially lost to the modern spectator but an...

Galatea
ISBN: 9780719088056 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 115 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Devised as an entertainment for a Tudor monarch and engaged with matters particularly pertinent to the Elizabethan state, Galatea might be seen, paradoxically, as a parable for our time. Inhabiting a world threatened with inundation and engaged in a process of change, the characters find themselves locked in a series of transgressive situations that speak directly to contemporary experience and twenty-first-century critical concerns. Same-sex relationships, shifts of authority, and the destabilization of meaning all lend the drama a surprising modernity, making it at once the most accessible...

The Woman in the Moon
ISBN: 9780719072451 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "This thoroughly annotated volume provides a detailed study of the play's sources. " Patrick Richards, Day by Day His last known work and the only one to be written primarily in verse, The Woman in the Moon is among Lyly's most entertaining plays. Turning upon the construction of the female character, it has been read as highly misogynistic, and as a sixteenth-century feminist manifesto. The biblical version of the creation of woman is overturned in the first scene when the play's supreme deity, Nature, presents her ultimate creation, Pandora (memorably played in 1928 by Katharine Hepburn),...

Pap with an Hatchet by John Lyly: An Annotated, Modern-Spelling Edition
ISBN: 9780719087387 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The first fully annotated, modern-spelling edition of Lyly's Pap with an Hatchet, this volume in the Revels Plays Companion Library series opens a window on the most neglected item in the Lylian canon. A response to a series of late sixteenth-century anti-episcopalian pamphlets issued under the pseudonym 'Martin Marprelate', Pap with an Hatchet seeks to beat Martin at his own game, employing all the devices deployed in the tracts to deride and subvert the Martinist position.
Wholly at odds with the twentieth-century construction of Lyly as an effete writer, ill-at-ease in the hurly-burly... The first fully annotated, modern-spelling edition of Lyly's Pap with an Hatchet, this volume in the Revels Plays Companion Library series opens a win...

Mother Bombie John Lyly
ISBN: 9780719096884 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Mother Bombie is unique among Lyly's comedies in its urban setting and focus upon middle and lower class concerns. The play turns on the tissue of misconceptions surrounding the efforts of four fathers to secure socially advantageous marriages for their heirs, and the determination of their young servants to exploit their masters' misguided aspirations for their own advantage. A theatrical success in its own day, the play is of particular interest to twenty-first century criticism for its focus upon those situated on the margins of the social group, notably Mother Bombie herself, thought by...
