Book excerpt: Among the most enduring poetry of all time, William Shakespeare’s 154 sonnets address such eternal themes as love, beauty, honesty, and the passage of time. Written primarily in four-line stanzas and iambic pentameter, Shakespeare’s sonnets are now recognized as marking the beginning of modern love poetry. The sonnets have been translated into all major written languages and are frequently used at romantic celebrations. Known as “The Bard of Avon,” William Shakespeare is arguably the greatest English-language writer known. Enormously popular during his life, Shakespeare’s works continue to resonate more than three centuries after his death, as has his influence on theatre and literature. Shakespeare’s innovative use of character, language, and experimentation with romance as tragedy served as a foundation for later playwrights and dramatists, and some of his most famous lines of dialogue have become part of everyday speech. HarperPerennial Classics brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms.

Download or read book King Richard III: Language and Writing written by Rebecca Lemon and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new type of study aid which combines lively critical insight with practical guidance on the critical writings skills students need to develop in order to engage fully with Shakespeare's texts. The book's core focus is on language: both understanding and enjoying Shakespeare's complex dramatic language, and expanding the student's own critical vocabulary as they respond to the play. The book explores several different approaches to Shakespeare's language. It looks at how the subtleties of Shakespeare's language reveal the thought processes and motivations of his characters, often in ways those characters themselves don't recognise; it analyses how Shakespeare's language works within or sometimes against various historical contexts, the contexts of stage performance, of genre and of discourses of his day (of religion, law, commerce, and friendship); and it explores how the peculiarities of Shakespeare's language often point to broad issues, themes, or ways of thinking that transcend any one character or line of action. Each chapter includes a "Writing Matters" section, giving students ideas and guidance for building their own critical response to the play and the skills to articulate it with confidence.

Download or read book King Richard III written by William Shakespeare and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-12-02 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King Richard III is one of Shakespeare's most popular and frequently-performed plays. Janis Lull's introduction to this new edition, based on the First Folio, emphasises the play's tragic themes - individual identity, determinism and choice - and stresses the importance of women's roles in the play. It also underscores the special relationship between Richard III and Macbeth, demonstrating that the later tragedy re-examines issues raised in the earlier one. A thorough performance history of stage and film versions of Richard III shows how the text has been cut, rewritten and re-shaped by directors and actors to enhance the role of Richard at the expense of other parts, especially those of the women. The notes define the play's language and ideas in terms easily accessible to contemporary readers.

Book excerpt: Richard III is a historical play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in approximately 1592. It depicts the Machiavellian rise to power and subsequent short reign of Richard III of England.[1] The play is grouped among the histories in the First Folio and is most often classified as such. Occasionally, however, as in the quarto edition, it is termed a tragedy. Richard III concludes Shakespeare's first tetralogy (also containing Henry VI parts 1–3). It is the second longest play in the canon after Hamlet, and is the longest of the First Folio, whose version of Hamlet is shorter than its Quarto counterpart. The play is rarely performed unabridged; often, certain peripheral characters are removed entirely. In such instances extra lines are often invented or added from elsewhere in the sequence to establish the nature of characters' relationships. A further reason for abridgment is that Shakespeare assumed that his audiences would be familiar with the Henry VI plays, and frequently made indirect references to events in them, such as Richard's murder of Henry VI or the defeat of Henry's queen, Margaret.

Book excerpt: Was Richard III the monster Shakespeare portrayed? Here's the "other" Richard III--the real one, possibly -- in a new Shakespearean five-act tragedy, written in old Elizabethan blank verse. We see, for all its grimness, the charm of life in late medieval times, meet many affecting characters-a very human Richard, disarming Lady Anne, pleasure-seeking Edward IV and his ambitious queen, Elizabeth Wydville, covetous Lord Clarence, dashing Earl Rivers, steadfast Lord Hastings, clever Lord Stanley, perfidious Lord Buckingham, and more-and get a new take on who might have been to blame for all those irregular deaths along the way. The play attempts to stay consistent with what is now known to be true about Richard, and credibly resolve what is unknown--those great mysteries in his life--in ways original yet still consistent with that history. This approach may diminish the drama somewhat, since it seems the real Richard was not always the driving force of events. Nevertheless, he remains an inherently dramatic figure; indeed, his actual life embodied, to a surprising degree, all the major elements of Shakespearean tragedy. Richard is shown from an eager adolescent of eighteen, recalling when he was "called to the side of my brother, the king," until his death in battle, as the king, at thirty-two. Act I introduces the characters and their late medieval world, and shows that even though the wars have ended, individual animosities have not; Act II reveals those enmities may still be arrayed as they were in the wars, into two opposing sides, with one side, Richard believes, responsible for the recent death of Clarence; in Acts III and IV the opposing factions come out in the open, their conflict sparking Richard's rise and fall; Act V then gives us the tragedy's denouement. While the progression of the play is chronological, the choices made as to scenes (what to show and what not to show) and as to dialogue keep things fresh and amusing. The play follows the Shakespearean tradition of relatively upbeat, even humorous, scenes being interspersed with downbeat scenes. The strength of the work is in the verse, which stays within Shakespeare's idiom, using only words of that time, but keeping it more readily understandable by avoiding words or syntax which would be confusing to a modern audience. In all, the language has a pleasingly archaic quality, yet is easy to read and understand without a glossary. -

Download or read book Richard II (理查二世) written by William Shakespeare and published by Hyweb Technology Co. Ltd.. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly annotated edition takes a fresh look at the first part of Shakespeare's second tetralogy of history plays, showing how it relates to the other plays in the sequence. Forker places the play in its political context, discussing its relation to competing theories of monarchy, looking at how it faced censorship because of possible comparisons between Richard II and Elizabeth I, and how Bolingbroke's rebellion could be compared to the Essex rising of the time. This edition also reconsiders Shakespeare's use of sources, asking why he chose to emphasise one approach over another. Forker also looks at the play's rich afterlife, and the many interpretations that actors and directors have taken. Finally, the edition looks closely at the aesthetic relationship between language, character, structure and political import.
