Shakespeare's Theatre: A History
ISBN: 9781405115131 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Richard Dutton, who will also propose a Companion on the same subject as his history, to add to the four Companions to Shakespeare's Works he has co-edited with Jean Howard, is probably the world's leading authority on the history of the Shakespeare's theatre and more broadly, theatre in England through the Tudor to the Jacobean period. What is more his sophistication as a cultural theorist and historicist is widely acknowledged by his peers. He writes lucidly and accessibly. His proposal is also especially timely. It is thirty years since G. E. Bentley poured a lifetime's work on the early...

Critical Reflections on Religion and Media in Contemporary Bali
ISBN: 9789004176492 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Scholars of religion have always worked closely with media of one kind or another, from sacred books and archaic languages to cassette-sermons and the Internet. Yet comparatively little attention has been paid to the ways we actually use these and other media in the pursuit of historical inquiry. Drawing on ethnographic and archival research conducted on the Indonesian island of Bali, this book offers a critique of the media-related assumptions underpinning fields as diverse in their subject matter and approach as the history of religions, British cultural studies and Old Javanese philology....

Epigrams and the Forest
ISBN: 9781857547054 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 121 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Ben Jonson is overshadowed as a dramatist by Shakespeare, his great contemporary. As a poet, however, he stands high. His polished urbanity, direct expression and classicism have been especially valued in modern times. T.S. Eliot says Jonson incorporated his erudition into his sensibility, creatively assimilating Horace, Martial and Juvenal into his poetry and hence into English literature. Richard Dutton's introduction illuminates the structure and context of Jonson's Epigrams and The Forest. Dutton shows them to be carefully structured poem sequences that display Jonson's command of poetic...
