Performances of Mourning in Shakespearean Theatre and Early Modern Culture
ISBN: 9780230001534 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This bold and wide-ranging study takes a fresh look at a controversial question: what do the acts and shows of grief performed in early modern drama tell us about the religious culture of the world in which they were historically staged? Many rites of mourning shown in the theatre held Catholic resonances, but how did such memories of traditional worship work in post-Reformation England? Drawing on performance studies, this book provides detailed readings of major playtexts, Shakespearean and others, to explore the politics, pathologies, physiologies and parodies of mourning.

Performances of the Sacred in Late Medieval and Early Modern England
ISBN: 9789042018051 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Communities have often shaped themselves around cultural spaces set apart and declared sacred. For this purpose, churches, priests or scholars no less than writers frequently participate in giving sacred figures a local habitation and, sometimes, voice or name. But whatever sites, rites, images or narratives have thus been constructed, they also raise some complex questions: how can the sacred be presented and yet guarded, claimed yet concealed, staged in public and at the same time kept exclusive? Such questions are pursued here in a variety of English texts historically employed to manifest...
