Download or read book Philip Massinger written by Douglas Howard and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1985-06-27 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the exception of the scholarly editions of his plays and a handful of essays on the better-known works, Philip Massinger's dramatic output has received little critical attention in the twentieth century. This collection of critical essays attempts a full reappraisal of the critical position. The essays come from the leading Massinger scholars and are introduced by a brief biography which places the playwright in the context of early Stuart theatre. Important general aspects of Massinger's dramaturgy - his strikingly individual language; attitude to male and female bonding; political views and collaborative work - are discussed, in addition to separate essays on the tragicomedy The Maid of Honour, his best-known tragedy The Roman Actor, and the two comedies A New Way to Pay Old Debts and The City Madam. Four hundred years after his birth this book will show that the hitherto underrated Massinger was the chief dramatist for England's major theatrical company from the death of Fletcher until the closing of the theatres in 1642, and a theatrical poet of major importance.

This book was released on 2013-04-28 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The playwrights composing for the London stage between 1580 and 1642 repeatedly staged plays-within and other metatheatrical inserts. Such works present fictionalized spectators as well as performers, providing images of the audience-stage interaction within the theatre. They are as much enactments of the interpretive work of a spectator as of acting, and as such they are a potential source of information about early modern conceptions of audiences, spectatorship and perception. This study examines on-stage spectatorship in three plays by Philip Massinger, head playwright for the King's Men from 1625 to 1640. Each play presents a different form of metatheatrical inset, from the plays-within of The Roman Actor (1626), to the masques-within of The City Madam (1632) to the titular miniature portrait of The Picture (1629), moving thematically from spectator interpretations of dramatic performance, the visual spectacle of the masque to staged 'readings' of static visual art. All three forms present a dramatization of the process of examination, and allow an analysis of Massinger's assumptions about interpretation, perception and spectator response.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plays of Philip Massinger: From the Text of William Gifford, With the Addition of the Tragedy "Believe as You List" Popular as Massinger must have been during the latter part of his life, he was utterly forgotten during the rule of the Puritans, and smroely remembered for many years after the Restoration. During this period, indeed, the dramatists ot' the preceding generation seem to have been valued in proportion as indecency predominated in their writings, and Beaumont and Fletcher were greatly more popular than Shabpeare. But the public taste in every way was perverted, and if others had been as honest as Samuel Pepys we should have had many such records as To Deptford by water, reading Othello, Moor qf Venue, which I ever heretofore esteemed a mighty good play, but having so lately read The Adventures of Five Houres, 1! Seems a mean thing Betterton indeed detected the fine opening which The Bomlman and The Roman Actor afforded to his grand powers of declamation, but it is probable that the exhibition was attended with more pleasure to the player than to the public. At length Nicholas Rowe, sixty-four years after Massinger's death, determined upon collecting and publishing his works, but after mature deliberation considered it more judicious to plunder the dead man rather than attempt to revive him. Nothing can show more decisively the oblivion into which Massinger had falim than that Rowe should think it possible to escape detection in his wholesale looti For a time, too, he was thoroughly successful. His Gay Lothario took such a ho in the English mind that he still dwells in the English tongue, and nearly eighty yous later, when Johnson pronounced this shameless plagiarism to be one of the most pleasing tragedies on the stage, where it still keeps its turns of appearing, and probably will long keep them, for there is scarcely any work of any poet at once so interesting by the fable, and so delightful by the language, he was evidently not aware that every thing in the play really deserving admiration, except the mere harmonious versifica tion, was the work of another man. And yet Johnson was himself a Shakspearian commentator! Of the baseness and shabbiness ot' Rowe's conduct in the afl'air it is impossible to speak with patience, and one feels quite grateful to the Earl of Oxford for loading him that famous dance about the Spanish language. Time too has already put the matter square. The once fashionable Fair Penitent is read by no one, and will probably never be reprinted, while The Fatal Dowry is perused year after year by in, creasing numbers with increasing admiration.
