Book Synopsis An Actor's Edition of Shakespeare Revisited by : James R. Hartman
Download or read book An Actor's Edition of Shakespeare Revisited written by James R. Hartman and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2007-07-26 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Actor’s Edition of Shakespeare Revisited is a book for actors, directors, professors of theatre and the general public. Each of the plays has been edited for more understandability and length. The intent of the book was to make the works more accessible without making the language modern. When audiences see a Shakespeare play, they have only one time to grasp the words as they are spoken. Audience members do not have time to look at lengthy explanations or notes about words or expressions. Therefore, this edition of these five plays, presents the plays so that audience members as well as actors can follow the plays with little difficulty. Some words have been changed to accomplish this. In certain speeches, subjects or verbs were supplied for understandability. Because Shakespeare used many pronouns, these plays make use of more nouns so that the meaning of who or what is being spoken about becomes more clear. The book also has some useful tools for the director and actors. A chart has been provided for each play that lists each character by act and scene. This can be very useful when there is a need to double cast actors. In addition, a “combination roles” page has also been added which gives suggestions for doubling parts for a smaller company. To help at rehearsals, page numbers for the beginning of each act and scene is provided on a single page for each play. Finally, each play has been broken into “beats” for the actor and the director. It is the hope of the author of this book that more people will find excitement in reading, performing, staging, or viewing Shakespeare because of the edited versions for understandability. Enjoy the plays---either reading or performing.

Book excerpt: Shakespearean Tragedies Revisited: An Actor's Edition is an eloquent restatement of three of Shakespeare's tragedies for actors, directors, professors of theatre, and the general public. Each of the plays has been edited word by word for more understandability and length. The intent of the book was to make the works more accessible without making the language modern in order to help the audience member and actors follow the plays with little difficulty in order to find the richness of plots and characters. Each of the plays was tested on stage with very positive results. In fact, a few samples of the responses from the audiences include: "Inherently accessible." "First time I could follow a Shakespearean play." "As someone new to Shakespeare, this production helped me appreciate his genius." "I believe The Bard himself would have approved this lucid revision of his work for modern English speakers." In addition to the editing word by word, the book also contains a unit on how to act Shakespeare with some tips for the actor with little or no training in Shakespearean acting. The material is also a good review for the more experienced Shakespearean actor.
Book Synopsis You Are Being Betrayed by the U. S. Government by : Sam Wright, Jr.
Download or read book You Are Being Betrayed by the U. S. Government written by Sam Wright, Jr. and published by . This book was released on 2008-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU ARE BEING BETRAYED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT is a must read book for all Americans written by an American about the Constitution of the United States, the unconstitutional acts of the Government of the United States, and the abuses We the People suffer because of the Government's unconstitutional behavior. Every citizen of this country has a personal stake in our Government's unconstitutional conduct. This book explains step-by-step in simple, clear, and easy to understand language the unconstitutional behavior of the U.S. Government and how YOUR RIGHTS are being trampled upon. The unconstitutional acts described within are not the result of the Government's attempt to protect YOU from terror or anything else. Each Branch of the Federal Government is ignoring the Rights and the principles in the Constitution. The behavior of officials in each Branch of the Government proves that when our Constitution becomes inconvenient for them, they simply ignore it. The Executive Branch is out of control because Government officials are not held accountable for failing to support the Constitution. The Executive Branch is running amuck and fails to follow the rules and laws written by Congress. Congress fails to take the action necessary when it is perfectly clear to Congress that the Executive Branch is not upholding the Constitution or the laws. Federal judges, including the Justices of the Supreme Court, have repeatedly issued decisions that ignore the Constitution and the laws written by Congress. Congress can remove Federal judges, but the threat of removal has not deterred Federal judges. Federal judges do as they please!! Why? Because Congress permits them to!! Congress is our defense against oppressive Government officials. Congress is our watchdog for the store (the store being our Rights). Congress has failed to attend to its responsibilities. The checks and balances are no longer fully operative because Congress does not perform its watchdog function.

PRAISE FOR SHAKESPEARE RETOLD "Schools and colleges will stamp and cheer with unrestrained gratitude and delight." – STEPHEN FRY “Tackling Hamlet for The Royal Shakespeare Company is arguably the most daunting role for any actor. For me, learning the words was the easy part; interpreting the nuances of the language and breathing life into the performance was brutally tough. James Anthony’s Shakespeare, Retold would have helped me immensely. For every line, I’d have had a lyrically identical modern-day translation that I precisely understood, helping reveal the emphasis and punch of each moment of my stage performance. Every actor would benefit from this compelling translation.” – PAAPA ESSIEDU
Book Synopsis Revisiting Shakespeare’s Lost Play by : Deborah C. Payne
Download or read book Revisiting Shakespeare’s Lost Play written by Deborah C. Payne and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-02 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays centres on Double Falsehood, Lewis Theobald’s 1727 adaptation of the “lost” play of Cardenio, possibly co-authored by John Fletcher and William Shakespeare. In a departure from most scholarship to date, the contributors fold Double Falsehood back into the milieu for which it was created rather than searching for traces of Shakespeare in the text. Robert D. Hume’s knowledge of theatre history permits a fresh take on the forgery question as well as the Shakespeare authorship controversy. Diana Solomon’s understanding of eighteenth-century rape culture and Jean I. Marsden’s command of contemporary adaptation practices both emphasise the play’s immediate social and theatrical contexts. And, finally, Deborah C. Payne’s familiarity with the eighteenth-century stage allows for a reconsideration of Double Falsehood as integral to a debate between Theobald, Alexander Pope, and John Gay over the future of the English drama.
