Love and Conflict in Medieval Drama: The Plays and Their Legacy
ISBN: 9780521153454 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book provides a detailed survey of the hundreds of non-biblical serious plays which survive from the tenth to the sixteenth centuries. The performers vary from civic groups and literary societies to courts and convents: mainly amateurs, but they left a legacy of stories that was drawn upon by the writers for the professional theatre companies of Elizabethan England, Golden Age Spain and the rich baroque theatre of France. Stories from the Golden Legend and collections of Marian miracles appear side by side with folk tales and traditional stories brought from the Middle East by merchants,...

Chekhov: A Study of the Major Stories and Plays
ISBN: 9780521296700 / Angielski / Miękka / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This 1977 study of Chekhov examines his development and achievement as prose-writer and dramatist. Beverly Hahn draws attention to the range and depth of Chekhov's imagination, disputing any limited conception of him as a 'poet of twilight Russia'. By looking in detail at a number of the longer stories as well as at Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard, she makes a strong case for viewing Chekhov as a humanist one actively interested in modern European theories and ideas, but finally committed to respecting and celebrating the unpredictability and variety of human lives. She also explores...

The Complete Plays of Jean Racine: Volume 2: Bajazet
ISBN: 9780271037448 / Angielski / Twarda / 129 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the second volume of a projected translation into English of all twelve of Jean Racine's plays--only the third time such a project has been undertaken in the three hundred years since Racine's death. For this new translation, Geoffrey Alan Argent has taken a fresh approach: he has rendered these plays in rhymed "heroic" couplets. While Argent's translation is faithful to Racine's text and tone, his overriding intent has been to translate a work of French literature into a work of English literature, substituting for Racine's rhymed alexandrines (hexameters) the English mode of...

Corneille and Racine: Problems of Tragic Form
ISBN: 9780521098144 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Corneille and Racine may seem like marble monuments of an unchanging typical classicism. Mr Pocock is concerned to show that each of these great dramatists was a living writer, struggling to create developing forms and that the rules of neo-classical decorum were a strait-jacket to them. We can see in their writings a hesitation between poetic drama which creates its own forms from within and naturalistic drama which opts for truth to common life and a medium. In an interesting and comprehensive examination of the two authors, Mr Pocock shows the range of Coneille's achievement, and explains...

Myth and Its Making in the French Theatre: Studies Presented to W. D. Howarth
ISBN: 9780521187763 / Angielski / Miękka / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The authors of the fifteen essays that make up this volume were invited to interpret 'Myth and its Making' in the widest possible sense. They were encouraged to re-examine not only the time-honoured ancient themes exploited in the French theatre from the Renaissance onwards, but other literary, historical or legendary subjects that have undergone a similar process of mythic enhancement and stylisation. Thus they explored the ways in which existing literary myths renewed themselves, as well as the process of creating new myths for the modern age. Originally published in 1988, the text contains...

Nicht-Ich-Identität: Ästhetische Subjektivität in Samuel Becketts Arbeiten Für Theater, Radio, Film Und Fernsehen
ISBN: 9783484660250 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Den Stucken Samuel Becketts (1906-1989) haftet noch immer der Hautgout von Krankheit, Verfall und Todesnahe an. Besonders die deutschsprachige Beckett-Rezeption scheint auf solche 'realistischen' Lesarten abonniert zu sein. Becketts fruhe Horspiele werden auch von einem Groteil der englischsprachigen Interpreten auf eine Reprasentationsasthetik festgelegt, die das formale Innovationspotential der Stucke unterschatzt. Becketts Wirkungsasthetik steuert die Publikumsreaktionen nicht nur minutios, sondern fuhrt diese Manipulationen auch explizit vor. Im Zentrum dieser medialen...

Nathan der Weise
ISBN: 9783150000038 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Gotthold Ephraim Lessings 'Nathan der Weise' (1779 erschienen und 1783 uraufgeführt) ist eines der zentralen Werke der deutschen Aufklärung. Der Text, der sich mit seiner Bezeichnung als "dramatisches Gedicht" der Festlegung auf eine der dramatischen Gattungen entzieht, trug wesentlich dazu bei, den Blankvers als den klassischen deutschen Dramenvers zu etablieren. Mit seinem 'Nathan' reagierte Lessing auf die religiöse Orthodoxie und Intoleranz seiner Zeit. Ort der Handlung ist Jerusalem während der Kreuzzüge - eine Stadt, in der Christentum, Islam und Judentum direkt aufeinandertreffen....
