Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare’s dramatis personae exist in a world of supposition, struggling to connect knowledge that cannot be had, judgments that must be made, and actions that need to be taken. For them, probability—what they and others might be persuaded to believe—governs human affairs, not certainty. Yet negotiating the space of probability is fraught with difficulty. Here, Joel B. Altman explores the problematics of probability and the psychology of persuasion in Renaissance rhetoric and Shakespeare’s theater. Focusing on the Tragedy of Othello, Altman investigates Shakespeare’s representation of the self as a specific realization of tensions pervading the rhetorical culture in which he was educated and practiced his craft. In Altman’s account, Shakespeare also restrains and energizes his audiences’ probabilizing capacities, alternately playing the skeptical critic and dramaturgic trickster. A monumental work of scholarship by one of America’s most respected scholars of Renaissance literature, The Improbability of Othello contributes fresh ideas to our understanding of Shakespeare’s conception of the self, his shaping of audience response, and the relationship of actors to his texts.

Download or read book Desdemona written by Toni Morrison and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-13 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This is a remarkable, challenging and bravely original work.' The Guardian Ripped from the world by her husband's paranoia, Desdemona turns in death towards the memory of Barbary, the North African maid who raised her: together, they explore the contours of death, race, war, love and motherhood, in a moving elegy. Audacious with ambition, Desdemona is Toni Morrison's intimate reimagining of the fourth act of Shakespeare's Othello, mixing monologue with Rokia Traore's lyrical songs to re-examine the Bard's presentation of race and female suffering. Part-play, part-concert, part-quest into the afterlife, Desdemona is published in Methuen Drama's Modern Classics series, featuring a new introduction by Joyce Green MacDonald.

Download or read book Othello: A Critical Reader written by Robert C. Evans and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Othello has long been, and remains, one of Shakespeare's most popular works. It is a favourite work of scholars, students, and general readers alike. Perhaps more than any other of Shakespeare's tragedies, this one seems to speak most clearly to contemporary readers and audiences, partly because it deals with such pressing modern issues as race, gender, multiculturalism, and the ways love, jealousy, and misunderstanding can affect relations between romantic partners. The play also features Iago, one of Shakespeare's most mesmerizing and puzzling villains. This guide offers students and scholars an introduction to the play's critical and performance history, including notable stage productions and film versions. It includes a keynote chapter outlining major areas of current research on the play and four new critical essays. Finally, a guide to critical, web-based and production-related resources and an annotated bibliography provide a basis for further research.

Download or read book An Allegory of Othello written by Charles Creighton and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excerpt from the Introduction: The allegory of 'Othello' is indeed the tragedy of the Sacrament. It was not the first time that the saving victim had been brought upon the stage. There was an old mystery-play, called "The Play of the Blessed Sacrament" of which a copy is preserved in the library of Trinity College, Dublin. Collier has given some account of it in his chapter on the "History of the English Stage to the Time of Shakespeare." The host is brought into the action as a miraculous cake, which yields blood when stabbed, and turns red the water of the cauldron in which it is boiled, and when thrown into an oven bursts asunder and gives out the figure of the Saviour, who rises from the fumes and speaks to the sacrilegious company of Jews, like the "artificial sprites" rising and speaking from the cauldron in 'Macbeth.' The date of this quaint play is supposed to be the reign of Henry VI. or Edward IV. It happens that the same Dublin library contains Hooker's MS. draft of a reply to his anonymous critic, of which several folios are devoted to the Sacraments. "In a word," he says, "Sacraments are God's secrets, discovered to none but His own people," and in support of that "large" meaning he cites Tertullian and St. Augustine, the former actually speaking of the sacrainentum, or secret, of "an allegory," and of sacramenta contained in allegorical "figures" such as that of Hagar and Mount Sinai, which St. Paul borrowed from Philo. From this generic usage. Hooker passes to Sacraments as visible signs or tokens of invisible grace. One need not assume that Shakespeare had seen either the MS. play of the Blessed Sacrament, or Hooker's reply to his critic, both of which afterwards found their way to Trinity College, Dublin, or that he otherwise knew Tertullian's large meaning of sacramentum, although I can show, and have elsewhere given the proof, that he knew of the allegorisings of Philo. But we can as little set bounds to his discursive reading and thinking as to the flights of his imagination; nor can we ignore the dependence of the latter on the former. To allegorise the Sacrament was to turn the name to its original use. To bring the allegory upon the stage without its real presence being discovered was to do in a poetical way what had been done before in a gross way. At all events, the play of the divine Desdemona is the play of the Blessed Sacrament in certain circumstances of time and place.

Download or read book Religion and Culture in Renaissance England written by Claire McEachern and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-06-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These essays by leading historians and literary scholars investigate the role of religion in shaping political, social and literary forms, and their reciprocal role in shaping early modern religion, from the Reformation to the Civil Wars. Reflecting and rethinking the insights of new historicism and cultural studies, individual essays take up various aspects of the productive, if tense, relation between Tudor-Stuart Christianity and culture, and explore how religion informs some of the central texts of English Renaissance literature: the vernacular Bible, Foxe's Acts and Monuments, Hooker's Laws, Shakespeare's plays and sonnets, the poems of John Donne, Amelia Lanyer and John Milton. The collection demonstrates the centrality of religion to sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England, and its influence on early modern constructions of gender, subjectivity and nationhood.
