Laughing and Weeping in Early Modern Theatres
ISBN: 9780754657026 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Did Shakespeare's original audiences weep? Equally, while it seems obvious that they must have laughed at plays performed in early modern theatres, can we say anything about what their laughter sounded like, about when it occurred, and about how, culturally, it was interpreted? Related to both of these problems of audience behaviour is that of the stage representation of laughing, and weeping, both actions performed with astonishing frequency in early modern drama. Each action is associated with a complex set of non-verbal noises, gestures, and cultural overtones, and each is linked to...

Speed and Flight in Shakespeare
ISBN: 9783030936563 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Shakespeare's plays are fascinated by the problems of speed and flight. They are repeatedly interested in humans, spirits, and objects that move very fast; become airborne; and in some cases even travel into space. In Speed and Flight in Shakespeare, the first study of any kind on the subject, Steggle looks at how Shakespeare’s language explores ideas of speed and flight, and what theatrical resources his plays use to represent these states. Shakespeare has, this book argues, an aesthetic of speed and flight. Featuring chapters on The Comedy of Errors, A... Shakespeare's plays are fascinated by the problems of speed and flight.
