Book excerpt: Influential philosopher Michel Serres’s foundational work uses fable to explore how human relations are identical to that of the parasite to the host body.

Download or read book Latin American Women Dramatists written by Catherine Larson and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1999-05-22 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This thoughtfully crafted . . . insightful and informative [anthology] elucidates an overlooked, essential component of the Latin American literary canon” (Choice). Latin American Women Dramatists sheds much-needed light on the significant contributions made by these pioneering authors during the last half of the twentieth century. Contributors discuss fifteen works of Latin-American playwrights, delineate the artistic lives of women dramatists from countries as diverse as Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Venezuela. Looking at these writers and their work from political, historical, and feminist perspectives, this anthology also underscores the problems inherent in writing under repressive governments. “The book highlights the many possibilities of the innovative work of these dramatists, and this will, it is to be hoped, help the editors to achieve one of their other key goals: productions of the plays in English.” —Times Literary Supplement, UK

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phrase "child labour" carries negative undertones in today's society. However, only a century ago on the Canadian Prairies, youngsters laboured alongside their parents' working the land, cleaning stovepipes, and chopping wood. By shouldering their share of the chores, these children learned the domestic and manual labour skills needed for life on a Prairie family farm. Rollings-Magnusson uses historic research, photographs, and personal anecdotes to describe the kinds of work performed by children and how each task fit into the family economy. This book is a vital contribution to western Canadian history as well as family and gender studies.

Download or read book Eugene O’Neill’s One-Act Plays written by M. Bennett and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-08-06 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eugene O'Neill, Nobel Laureate in Literature and Pulitzer Prize winner, is widely known for his full length plays. However, his one-act plays are the foundation of his work - both thematically and stylistically, they telescope his later plays. This collection aims to fill the gap by examining these texts, during what can be considered O'Neill's formative writing years, and the foundational period of American drama. A wide-ranging investigation into O'Neill's one-acts, the contributors shed light on a less-explored part of his career and assist scholars in understanding O'Neill's entire oeuvre.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Shakespeare's Poetry written by Jonathan Post and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Shakespeare's Poetry contains thirty-eight original essays written by leading Shakespeareans around the world. Collectively, these essays seek to return readers to a revivified understanding of Shakespeare's verbal artistry in both the poems and the drama. The volume understands poetry to be not just a formal category designating a particular literary genre but to be inclusive of the dramatic verse as well, and of Shakespeare's influence as a poet on later generations of writers in English and beyond. Focusing on a broad set of interpretive concerns, the volume tackles general matters of Shakespeare's style, earlier and later; questions of influence from classical, continental, and native sources; the importance of words, line, and rhyme to meaning; the significance of songs and ballads in the drama; the place of gender in the verse, including the relationship of Shakespeare's poetry to the visual arts; the different values attached to speaking 'Shakespeare' in the theatre; and the adaptation of Shakespearean verse (as distinct from performance) into other periods and languages. The largest section, with ten essays, is devoted to the poems themselves: the Sonnets, plus 'A Lover's Complaint', the narrative poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece, and 'The Phoenix and the Turtle'. If the volume as a whole urges a renewed involvement in the complex matter of Shakespeare's poetry, it does so, as the individual essays testify, by way of responding to critical trends and discoveries made during the last three decades.

Book excerpt: Dirty Laundry is a memoir written as conversational novellas to the four men who came into Janet Jaymes’ life. Whenever we start a relationship, we talk about our past, our myriad thoughts, desires and dreams. Through such conversations, Janet Jaymes’ describes her life as if each novella is an emotional panel that sewn together becomes a colorful quilt written in the bold colors Janet Jaymes used to paint as a young artist. Dirty Laundry is about a woman who, for years, always seemed to walk into the strangest situations and unconventional relationships she never asked for, as if she was in the wrong place at the right time, or the right time in the wrong place. For Janet Jaymes, life didn’t turn out like she planned. Dirty Laundry describes in remarkable detailed-memory, in brutal honesty, and with a sense-of-humor-reality, the good, the bad and the ugly of an average woman’s life that turned out to be far from average. Dirty Laundry is an emotional, roller-coaster ride like a high-flying drug trip with crashing, coming-down lows and in the end, we find out how Janet Jaymes survived. Dirty Laundry is an entertaining human interest portrayal of a woman’s life that guarantees to be a page-turner.

Download or read book Sex and War on the American Stage written by Emily Klein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American adaptations of Aristophanes’ enduring comedy Lysistrata have used laughter to critique sex, war, and feminism for nearly a century. Unlike almost any other play circulating in contemporary theatres, Lysistrata has outlived its classical origins in 411 BCE and continues to shock and delight audiences to this day. The play’s "make love not war" message and bawdy humor render it endlessly appealing to college campuses, activist groups, and community theatres – so much so that none of Aristophanes’ plays are performed in the West as frequently as Lysistrata. Starting with the play’s first mainstream production in the U.S. in 1930, Emily B. Klein explores the varied iterations of Lysistrata that have graced the American stage, page, and screen since the Great Depression. These include the Federal Theatre’s 1936 Negro Repertory production, the 1955 movie musical The Second Greatest Sex and Spiderwoman Theater’s openly political Lysistrata Numbah!, as well as Douglas Carter Beane’s Broadway musical, Lysistrata Jones, and the international Lysistrata Project protests, which updated the classic in the contemporary context of the Iraq War. Although Aristophanes’ oeuvre has been the subject of much classical scholarship, Lysistrata has received little attention from feminist theatre scholars or performance theorists. In response, this book maps current debates over Lysistrata’s dubious feminist underpinnings and uses performance theory, cultural studies, and gender studies to investigate how new adaptations reveal the socio-political climates of their origins. Emily B. Klein is Assistant Professor of English and Drama at Saint Mary's College of California. Her work has appeared in Women and Performance and Frontiers as well as Political and Protest Theater After 9/11: Patriotic Dissent (Routledge, 2012).
