Greek Tragedy and the Emotions (Routledge Revivals): An Introductory Study
ISBN: 9781138019041 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. According to Aristotle the main purpose of tragedy is the manipulation of emotions, and yet there are relatively few accessible studies of the precise dynamics of emotion in the Athenian theatre. In Greek Tragedy and the Emotions, first published in 1993, W.B. Stanford reviews the evidence for 'emotionalism' - as the great Attic playwrights presented it, as the actors and choruses expressed it, and as their audiences reacted to it.

Maria a telenovela for the stage

Winner of the 2014 Dharma Grace Award in playwriting and the University of California Santa Cruz Humanities Dean's Award. "More than simply an adaptation of Euripedes' Medea, this multi-media, transtemporalpiece draws on a variety of literary and cultural works, from The Tempest, especially stagings that reverse the gender and race of the characters, to the Latin American telenovela and media imagery of the black body. The result is a striking experiment in linguistic and cultural translation." - Susan Gillman"

Brill's Companion to Roman Tragedy
ISBN: 9789004231597 / Łaciński / Twarda / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Until the Renaissance the centrality of Roman tragedy in Western society and culture was unchallenged. Studies on Roman Republican tragedy and on Imperial Roman tragedy by the contributors have been directing the gaze of scholarship back to Roman tragedy. This volume has two goals: first, to demonstrate that Republican tragedy had a far more central role in shaping Imperial tragedy than is currently thought, and quite possibly more important than Classical Greek tragedy. Second, the influence of other Roman literary genres on Roman tragedy is greater than has formerly been credited. Studies...

A DOLL'S HOUSE (annotated)
ISBN: 9781517696979 / Angielski / Miękka / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A Doll's House, written two years after The Pillars of Society, was the first of Ibsen's plays to create a sensation and is now perhaps his most famous play, and required reading in many secondary schools and universities. The play was highly controversial when first published, as it is sharply critical of 19th Century marriage norms. It follows the formula of well-made play up until the final act, when it breaks convention by ending with a discussion, not an unravelling. It is often called the first true feminist play, although Ibsen denied this.
