Book Synopsis RUN, MELOS! A Play in Nine Scenes by : Gavin Bantock
Download or read book RUN, MELOS! A Play in Nine Scenes written by Gavin Bantock and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-06-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RUN, MELOS! A Play in Nine Scenes, by Gavin Bantock New Classic Adaptations for the Stage, Vol. 6 Osamu Dazai's short story Run, Melos! is regarded as a classic in Japan and is very popular especially among high-school teachers and students. Even in translation, it maintains its classic stature. Its theme of steadfast friendship overcoming all odds is deeply moving and inspirational, and indeed appeals to all ages. The increasing suspense of the story makes it an ideal vehicle for the live stage, and the audience watches with bated breath as the young Melos encounters one obstacle after another - a broken bridge and a turbulent river to be crossed, a band of brigands to be quelled single-handledly, and the sheer exhaustion Melos suffers as he runs mile after mile, almost dying of thirst, coughing blood and collapsing scarcely a mile from his destination, and only just able to make a final desperate effort to save his friend from death by crucifixion. Based on an ancient Greek legend and the much later ballad by the German writer Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805), the story shows how the evil machinations of corrupt power are overcome by the moral strength of friendship and Christian purity of spirit.

Download or read book A Musical Prodigy from South Wales written by Andrew Everett MA and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2020-02-21 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harry Parr-Davies was no more than a name to me until I saw the documentary play about Gracie Fields and realised that the songs Sing as We Go, Wish Me Luck As You Wave Me Goodbye, Pedro the Fisherman, and I Leave My Heart in an English Garden were all composed by the same man. This set me about discovering more about him. Consulting the internet, I discovered a web-site and even more importantly was given Gabrielle Bell’s CD of Harry’s music covering the styles and sounds of 30’s, 40’s and 50’s I also gathered as many items of second sheetmusi and two vocal scores. After compiling a family genealogy I now start to collate my material into biographical form so I could explore the man and his music set against the times he lived in. I consulted local libraries for Groves and Dictionary of National Biography. Giving more personal detail were the archives in Neath and West Glamorgan Libraries . even more usefully I came across accounts of the 2005 Exhibition in Neath about Harry which Edward Beckerleg had mounted with the help of late Bill Hanks. I contacted them both and they were helpful. Sadly Bill died, but Edwardhas provided with copies of material on the boards he had done for the exhibition. Even more importantly, he posted to me CD’s of Harry’s music covering the styles and sounds of 30’s, 40’s and 50’s. He in addition, sent me a selection of his photographs concerning Harry to use in my book. (see those use in the list below.)

Book Synopsis The Plays of Aristophanes by : Aristophanes
Download or read book The Plays of Aristophanes written by Aristophanes and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Plays of Aristophanes (425 BC-388 BC) is a collection of comedies by Athenian playwright Aristophanes. Noted for his exploration of fantasy, sexuality, and contemporary politics, Aristophanes was a leading figure in Old Attic Comedy whose award-winning plays continue to delight and inspire nearly 2,500 years after they were first performed. This collection includes some of his best-known work, showcasing his talent as an unmatched humorist and shrewd social commentator whose words drew ire from Athenian general Cleon, Socrates, and Plato. In The Clouds, an indebted Athenian aristocrat enters a philosophical school despite his advanced age in order to sharpen his argumentative skills. There, he learns the recent teachings of Socrates and gets a chance to meet the legendary figure himself. Despite his earnest desire for enlightenment, Strepsiades proves shockingly inept and is forced to beg his young son for help. The Birds follows a pair of middle-aged men on a walk through the wilderness, where they encounter a former king who has been transformed into a bird. When a group of enraged birds holds them captive, suspecting the men of ill-intent, the two devise a plan to inspire the birds to challenge the Olympians and assert their power in the universal order. In Lystistrata, the title heroine leads a courageous campaign to put an end to the brutal Peloponnesian War. Her bold plan involves encouraging women throughout the warring city states of Greece to withhold sex from men until the violence is stopped. The Plays of Aristophanes is an invaluable collection of comedies from a leading playwright of Ancient Greece, a man whose work has survived for centuries while inspiring countless writers, readers, and audiences around the world. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Aristophanes’ The Plays of Aristophanes is a classic of Ancient Greek literature reimagined for modern readers.

Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary study opens up a fascinating interaction between art and theater. It shows how the mythological vase-paintings of fourth-century B.C. Greeks, especially those settled in southern Italy, are more meaningful for those who had seen the myths enacted in the popular new medium of tragedy. Of some 300 relevant vases, 109 are reproduced and accompanied by a picture-by-picture discussion. This book supplies a rich and unprecedented resource from a neglected treasury of painting.
