Download or read book The Malcontent written by John Marston and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 1999-07-02 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Malcontent, usually recognized as John Marston's masterpiece, is one of the most original and complex plays of the Elizabethan theatre. Complex in genre, structure and language, it poses interesting problems for theatre history and textual transmission. The aim of this edition is to offer answers to the various questions raised by the play (derived from the thirty-six copies now extant), to establish a reliable text, to date the play and relate it to the aesthetic cross-currents flowing at the turn of the seventeenth century. It also seeks to place The Malcontent within the theatrical traditions both of boy-players and of Shakespeare's company, which stole the play from the boys and adapted to their own theatre.

Book Synopsis Playing Companies and Commerce in Shakespeare's Time by : Roslyn Lander Knutson
Download or read book Playing Companies and Commerce in Shakespeare's Time written by Roslyn Lander Knutson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-07-26 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Playing Companies and Commerce in Shakespeare's Time, first published in 2011, examines the nature of commercial relations among the theatre companies in London during the time of Shakespeare. Roslyn Knutson argues that the playing companies cooperated in the adoption of business practices that would enable the theatrical enterprise to flourish. Suggesting the guild as a model of economic cooperation, Knutson considers the networks of fellowship among players, the marketing strategies of the repertory, and company relationships with playwrights and members of the book trade. The book challenges two entrenched views about theatrical commerce: that companies engaged in cut-throat rivalry to drive one another out of business and that companies based business decisions on the personal and professional quarrels of the players and dramatists with whom they worked. This important contribution to theatre history will be of interest to scholars as well as historians.

Book Synopsis Skull Beneath the Skin by : Charles R. Forker
Download or read book Skull Beneath the Skin written by Charles R. Forker and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Webster was much possessed by death And saw the skull beneath the skin; And breastless creatures under ground Leaned backward with a lipless grin. These lines from T. S. Eliot’s "Whispers of Immortality” provide Charles R. Forker with the title for the most substantial and detailed examination of John Webster to date; they also identify a major theme--the love-death nexus in Renaissance drama and its special relevance to Webster. Forker summarizes what is known about Webster’s life and analyzes in detail not only the major plays but also the lesser ones. He examines The White Devil, The Duchess of Malfi, and The Devil’s Law-Case in context with the minor and collaborative works, tracing themes, stylistic features, and ideas through the entire Webster canon. One reviewer of the manuscript notes that "Forker is surely unrivalled as an authority on matters Websterian. His book treats Webster with an unhurried fullness and richness rarely accorded even to Shakespeare.” Another calls the book "Splendid. Readable and engaging.”
