Download or read book English History in Shakespeare's Plays (Classic Reprint) written by Beverley E. Warner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-04-23 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English History in Shakespeare's Plays This volume had its origin in a course of lectures on the study of history as illustrated in the plays of Shakespeare. It is never safe to assume that what has been listened to with attention will be read with interest. The lectures, however, have been recast, pruned, and amplified, and much machinery has been added in the way of tables of contents, bibliography, chronological tables, and index. With such helps it is hoped that these pages may effect a working part nership between the Chronicle of the formal historian and the Epic of the dramatic poet. They are ad dressed especially to those readers and students of English History who may not have discovered what an aid to the understanding of certain important phases of England's national development lies in these histor ical plays, which cover a period of three hundred years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's History of King Henry the Fifth The notes on textual variations have been either omitted or abridged, as the text of the play is now virtually settled. For most of the Critical Comments in the former edition I have substituted matter of my own, much of which is drawn from familiar lectures prepared for audiences of teachers and students. Minor Changes have been made throughout the Notes, and many new ones have been added, includ ing a considerable number in place of those referring to my former editions of other plays. The book is now absolutely complete in itself. I believe that teachers will prefer the new edition to the old one; but both can be used, without serious inconvenience, in the same Class or club.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Tales From Shakespeare Although in the following pages I have chosen those plays, or most of them, which Charles and Mary Lamb omitted from their Tales from Shake speare, and although I have. Taken a title very like theirs, my attempt has not been to round off or tag a conclusion to their inimitable work. They, as wise judges of what their book should be, found that a certain class of play lay outside their purpose. It is just these plays - the historical ones - which, with a different purpose, are here cast into narrative form.

Book Synopsis Shakespeare's History Plays by : Neema Parvini
Download or read book Shakespeare's History Plays written by Neema Parvini and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare's History Plays boldly moves criticism of Shakespeare's history plays beyond anti-humanist theoretical approaches. This important intervention in the critical and theoretical discourse of Shakespeare studies summarises, evaluates and ultimately calls time on the mode of criticism that has prevailed in Shakespeare studies over the past thirty years. It heralds a new, more dynamic way of reading Shakespeare as a supremely intelligent and creative political thinker, whose history plays address and illuminate the very questions with which cultural historicists have been so preoccupied since the 1980s. In providing bold and original readings of the first and second tetralogies (Henry VI, Richard III, Richard II and Henry IV, Parts 1 & 2), the book reignites old debates and re-energises recent bids to humanise Shakespeare and to restore agency to the individual in the critical readings of his plays

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Chronicle Play: A Study in the Popular Historical Literature Environing Shakespeare IN the following pages an attempt has been made to tell the history of one of the many and various strands which, twisted and interwoven, form the brilliant and heterogeneous Elizabethan Drama. There is always a danger in thus seeking to separate what in reality is part of an integral whole; for not only was the Eng lish Chronicle Play deeply influenced by the wealth of literature in other forms which dealt with the gene ral subject of English history, but it influenced and was in turn affected by many other varieties of drama that flourished simultaneously with it. None the less the Chronicle Play can be treated independently with greater justice than any other form of the drama; for whatever the superficial influences upon it, it retained from first to last a character essentially national and English.
