Download or read book Shakespeare and the Spanish Comedia written by Bárbara Mujica and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-03 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare and the Spanish Comedia is a nearly unique transnational study of the theater / performance traditions of early modern Spain and England. Divided into three parts, the book focuses first on translating for the stage, examining diverse approaches to the topic. It asks, for example, whether plays should be translated to sound as if they were originally written in the target language or if their “foreignness” should be maintained and even highlighted. Section II deals with interpretation and considers such issues as uses of polyphony, the relationship between painting and theater, and representations of women. Section III highlights performance issues such as music in modern performances of classical theater and the construction of stage character. Written by a highly respected group of British and American scholars and theater practitioners, this book challenges the traditional divide between the academy and the stage and between one theatrical culture and another.

Download or read book On Extremity written by Nelson Varas-Díaz and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-06-12 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Extremity: From Music to Images, Words, and Experiences brings together transdisciplinary scholarship on sounds, images, words, and experiences (human and non-human) to reflect on the polysemic and polymorphic characteristics of extremity and the category of the extreme. The editors and authors aim to contribute to a living, breathing, and expanding definition of extremity that helps us understand what we gain, or lose, when we interact with it, create it, and share it with, or force it upon, others. The volume calls for the emergence of “extremity studies” as an area of perusal to help us navigate our current global condition.

Download or read book Cardenio between Cervantes and Shakespeare written by Roger Chartier and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-03-21 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How should we read a text that does not exist, or present a playthe manuscript of which is lost and the identity of whose authorcannot be established for certain? Such is the enigma posed by Cardenio – a playperformed in England for the first time in 1612 or 1613 andattributed forty years later to Shakespeare (and Fletcher). Itsplot is that of a ‘novella’ inserted into Don Quixote,a work that circulated throughout the major countries of Europe,where it was translated and adapted for the theatre. In England,Cervantes’ novel was known and cited even before it wastranslated in 1612 and had inspired Cardenio. But there is more at stake in this enigma. This was a time when,thanks mainly to the invention of the printing press, there was aproliferation of discourses. There was often a reaction when it wasfeared that this proliferation would become excessive, and manywritings were weeded out. Not all were destined to survive, inparticular plays for the theatre, which, in many cases, were neverpublished. This genre, situated at the bottom of the literaryhierarchy, was well suited to the existence of ephemeral works.However, if an author became famous, the desire for an archive ofhis works prompted the invention of textual relics, the restorationof remainders ruined by the passing of time or, in order to fill inthe gaps, in some cases, even the fabrication of forgeries. Suchwas the fate of Cardenio in the eighteenth century. Retracing the history of this play therefore leads one to wonderabout the status, in the past, of works today judged to becanonical. In this book the reader will rediscover the malleabilityof texts, transformed as they were by translations and adaptations,their migrations from one genre to another, and their changingmeanings constructed by their various publics. Thanks to RogerChartier’s forensic skills, fresh light is cast upon themystery of a play lacking a text but not an author.

Download or read book Interruptions in Early Modern English Drama written by Michael M. Wagoner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-09-22 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To interrupt, both on stage and off, is to wrest power. From the Ghost's appearance in Hamlet to Celia's frightful speech in Volpone, interruptions are an overlooked linguistic and dramatic form that delineates the balance of power within a scene. This book analyses interruptions as a specific form in dramatic literature, arguing that these everyday occurrences, when transformed into aesthetic phenomena, reveal illuminating connections: between characters, between actor and audience, and between text and reader. Focusing on the works of William Shakespeare, Ben Jonson and John Fletcher, Michael M. Wagoner examines interruptions that occur through the use of punctuation and stage directions, as well as through larger forms, such as conventions and dramaturgy. He demonstrates how studying interruptions may indicate aspects of authorial style – emphasizing a playwright's use and control of a text – and how exploring relative power dynamics pushes readers and audiences to reconsider key plays and characters, providing new considerations of the relationships between Othello and Iago, or Macbeth and the Ghost of Banquo.

Book excerpt: This book compares the theatrical cultures of early modern England and Spain and explores the causes and consequences not just of the remarkable similarities but also of the visible differences between them. An exercise in multi-focal theatre history research, it deploys a wide range of perspectives and evidence with which to recreate the theatrical landscapes of these two countries and thus better understand how the specific conditions of performance actively contributed to the development of each country’s dramatic literature. This monograph develops an innovative comparative framework within which to explore the numerous similarities, as well as the notable differences, between early modern Europe’s two most prominent commercial theatre cultures. By highlighting the nuances and intricacies that make each theatrical culture unique while never losing sight of the fact that the two belong to the same broader cultural ecosystem, its dual focus should appeal to scholars and students of English and Spanish literature alike, as well as those interested in the broader history of European theatre. Learning from what one ‘playground’ – that is, the environment and circumstances out of which a dramatic tradition originates – reveals about the other will help solve not only the questions posed above but also others that still await examination. This investigation will be of great interest to students and scholars in theatre history, comparative drama, early modern drama, and performance culture.

This book was released on 2024-08-09 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pedro Alcántara se sitúa en el vórtice crucial de la segunda mitad del siglo xx, período, en que el arte y las letras latinoamericanas expresan un especial empuje renovador y la militancia de los creadores enfrenta las atrocidades de las guerras imperiales, las funestas dictaduras que oscurecieron el cielo de este joven continente y las endémicas formas de violencia que son una venda para el espíritu. Abordar su obra obliga a ponerla en consonancia con ese rico y contradictorio contexto del pensamiento y de la historia, y permite que su trabajo como hombre de la cultura halle una explicación más compleja que contribuya a comprender su indagación y sus alcances estéticos. Pedro Alcántara is situated in the pivotal vortex of the second half of the 20th century, where Latin American arts and literature display a special revitalizing thrust and where militancy of the creators faces the atrocities of the imperialr wars, the baleful dictatorships that darkened the sky of this young continent, and the endemic forms of violence that are a blindfold for the spirit. Addressing Alcántaras work oblíges one to place it in accordance to that rich and contradictory context of thought and history, allowing his work, as a man of culture, to find a more complex explanation that contributes, to the understanding of his inquiry and of his a esthetic scopes.

Book excerpt: Como consecuencia de la actual crisis en educación, la gente está empezando a darse cuenta de que las escuelas abarcan mucho más que la provisión de conocimientos y aptitudes a los niños. Las escuelas son comunidades y, como todas las comunidades, puede ser o no saludables. Renovación escolar aborda los problemas y desafíos de una comunidad escolar. Mediante el empleo de cuentos, mitos y la experiencia personal de la educación Waldorf, Torin Finser describe la forma en la que tanto maestros como padres afrontan problemas cotidianos como el agotamiento, los conflictos interpersonales y las trampas de la rutina. Lo más importante es que el autor hace hincapié en que una comunidad educativa debe llegar a un acuerdo con las numerosas dimensiones ocultas de cada individuo. Muestra cómo se pueden cultivar y alimentar estos aspectos poco entendidos de la mente con el fin de mantener viva la escuela y la educación. Renovación escolar no ofrece fórmulas ni soluciones chapuceras. En su lugar, anima a una nueva manera de pensar acerca de la educación y el crecimiento personal (para los niños y los adultos que se preocupan por ellos). «…si se me pudiese conceder un deseo en nombre de la renovación escolar, pediría una mejora significativa en la calidad del sueño de padres y maestros. Ningún otro cambio tiene un potencial más beneficioso que el de eliminar el estado de agotamiento crónico que se produce a final de semana en la mayoría de escuelas».

This book was released on 1999 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los textos aquí reunidos proceden en su práctica totalidad del ciclo de conferencias "Literatura comparada. Relaciones literarias hispano-inglesas (Siglo XX)" que, organizado por el Grupo de Investigación "Poesía y Traducción", en colaboración con el Vicerrectorado de Investigación de la Universidad de Almería y con ayuda de la Consejería de Educación y Ciencia de la Junta de Andalucía, se celebró en la Universidad de Almería los días 29 de abril, 5 y 6 de mayo de 1997. Este volumen (como los dos anteriores en esta serie, Imagen de la mujer en la literatura inglesa, 1997, y Traducir poesía. Luis Cernuda, traductor, 1998), sin embargo, no es una mera recopilación de actas, ya que las conferencias fueron posteriormente reelaboradas por los autores para su publicación como partes de un libro, en el que, asimismo, se incluyen algunos trabajos no presentados entonces. Hemos agrupado los estudios seleccionados procurando guardar, en lo posible, un orden cronológico de acuerdo con los autores y temas que abordan.
