Lessing's Philosophy of Religion and the German Enlightenment
ISBN: 9780195144949 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729-81) stands as a key figure in German intellectual history, a bridge joining Luther, Leibniz, and German idealism. Despite his well-recognized importance in the history of thought, Lessing as theologian or philosopher of religion remains an enigmatic figure. Scholars refer to the "riddle" or "mystery" of Lessing, a mystery that has proved intractable because of his reticence on the subject of the final conclusions of his intellectual project. Toshimasa Yasukata seeks to unravel this mystery. Based on intensive study of the entire corpus of Lessing's philosophical...

Euripides was one of the most popular and controversial of all the Greek tragedians, and his plays are marked by an independence of thought,... The Greek Tragedy in New Translations series is based on the conviction that only translators who write poetry themselves, or who work in col...

Shakespeare and Classical Tragedy: The Influence of Seneca
ISBN: 9780198112648 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Shakespeare and the Constant Romans
ISBN: 9780198117711 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Shakespeare's Romans are intensely concerned with "constancy." Geoffrey Miles traces the Stoic origins of this Roman principle of being "always the same" and explores the varying forms it takes in writers such as Cicero, Seneca, and Montaigne. Building on this genealogy of constancy, Miles reads Shakespeare's Roman plays as reworkings of three figures found in Plutarch: the constant Brutus, the inconstant Antony, and the obstinate Coriolanus. The tragedies of these characters act out the attractions, flaws, and self-contradictions of constancy, and the tragicomic failure of the Roman hope...

McKenzie worked on this comprehensive edition of the works of the playwright, poet, librettist, and novelist William Congreve for more than twenty years, until his sudden death in 1999.

Mock Kings in Medieval Society and Renaissance Drama
ISBN: 9780198119678 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. King-led outlaw defiance, riotous lords of misrule, proud midsummer mock kings, and stately Inns-of-Court princes--in diverse ways all were reflections of the dominant social order from the medieval to early Stuart periods and, as this new book makes clear, all influenced the writings of Shakespeare and his contemporaries. Billington considers kingship in the light of contemporary accounts of elected kings in outlaw and rebel groups, and compares them with the phenomenon of festive mock kings. The result is a complex picture of interrelation between festive and more serious opposition to the...
