Book Synopsis Gothic in Revenge Tragedies by : Dr. M. Sai Krithika
Download or read book Gothic in Revenge Tragedies written by Dr. M. Sai Krithika and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word Gothic has connotations of violence and grotesqueness. The popular Gothic elements are blood and gore, unnatural and supernatural occurrences, eerie passages, mystery, haunted castles, ghosts, perambulating skeletons, numerous death in a gory manner, Byronic love, passion and revenge. As Virginia Woolf rightly calls them, they are “the strange human need for feeling afraid.” It is the Hyde in every Jekyll that makes one take to the gothic. The British Revenge Tragedies, embedded with these elements, serve as forerunner of the gothic genre. In The Jew of Malta, we find the barbaric, scheming Machiavellian Barabas that plots the evil actions in the play that leads to mass graves and, eventually, himself being burned alive in a cauldron. In The Spanish Tragedy, Andrea’s ghost and Revenge; discovery of the mangled body of Horatio and the blood-stained handkerchief; letter written with blood and Hieronimo cutting out his tongue are the major Gothic elements. In Hamlet, the ghost of Hamlet’s father; the violent stabbing of Polonius; the grave digger’s eulogizing death and the introduction of Yorick’s skull never fail in creating chills down the spine of any reader. Ian Jack observes on Webster’s plays that The White Devil and The Duchess of Malfi, have no other purpose other than making the audience’s ‘flesh creep.’ Thus, gothic as a genre, has been strongly haunting literature and would still continue to haunt, not only literature but also life.

Book Synopsis Acting in Person and in Style by : Jerry L. Crawford
Download or read book Acting in Person and in Style written by Jerry L. Crawford and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2010-01-07 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Appropriate for both fundamental and advanced levels, the authors ground their commentary on actor training on the process of personalization and the innovative approaches to voice and movement training. They define the personalization process as one in which the actor discovers and explores in the self, characteristics, qualities, attitudes, and experiences that are legitimate dimensions of the role being created. Part I transitions from essential ingredients used in creating a role, such as focusing and speaking, to guidelines for auditioning and rehearsing, including role analysis. The discussions of basic acting principles are supported by skills-building exercises. Part II explores historical performance styles and shows how basic stylistic elements can be freshly adapted for modern audiences. Thus, in Part II, the authors center their discussions of voice, movement, character, and emotion around theatrical styles prevalent during certain historical periods and around sound acting theories gleaned from a wide range of acting traditions. Each chapter in this part ends with a helpful checklist that summarizes voice, movement, gesture, and other elements common to the era discussed.

This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 2069 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This expansive four-volume work gives students detailed explanations of Shakespeare's plays and poems and also covers his age, life, theater, texts, and language. Numerous excerpts from primary source historical documents contextualize his works, while reviews of productions chronicle his performance history and reception. Shakespeare's works often served to convey simple truths, but they are also complex, multilayered masterpieces. Shakespeare drew on varied sources to create his plays, and while the plays are sometimes set in worlds before the Elizabethan age, they nonetheless parallel and comment on situations in his own era. Written with the needs of students in mind, this four-volume set demystifies Shakespeare for today's readers and provides the necessary perspective and analysis students need to better appreciate the genius of his work. This indispensable ready reference examines Shakespeare's plots, language, and themes; his use of sources and exploration of issues important to his age; the interpretation of his works through productions from the Renaissance to the present; and the critical reaction to key questions concerning his writings. The book provides coverage of each key play and poems in discrete sections, with each section presenting summaries; discussions of themes, characters, language, and imagery; and clear explications of key passages. Readers will be able to inspect historical documents related to the topics explored in the work being discussed and view excerpts from Shakespeare's sources as well as reviews of major productions. The work also provides a comprehensive list of print and electronic resources suitable for student research.

Book Synopsis Five Revenge Tragedies by : Thomas Kyd
Download or read book Five Revenge Tragedies written by Thomas Kyd and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2012-05-31 with total page 826 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Elizabethan era gave way to the reign of James I, England grappled with corruption within the royal court and widespread religious anxiety. Dramatists responded with morally complex plays of dark wit and violent spectacle, exploring the nature of death, the abuse of power and vigilante justice. In Kyd's The Spanish Tragedy a father failed by the Spanish court seeks his own bloody retribution for his son's murder. Shakespeare's 1603 version of Hamlet creates an avenging Prince of unique psychological depth, while Chettle's The Tragedy of Hoffman is a fascinating reworking of Hamlet's themes, probably for a rival theatre company. In Marston's Antonio's Revenge, thwarted love leads inexorably to gory reprisals and in Middleton's The Revenger's Tragedy, malcontent Vindice unleashes an escalating orgy of mayhem on a debauched Duke for his bride's murder, in a ferocious satire reflecting the mounting disillusionment of the age. Emma Smith's introduction considers the political and religious climate behind the plays and the dramatic conventions within them. This edition includes a chronology, playwrights' biographies and suggestions for further reading.

Book Synopsis Convention Et Théâtre by : Centre d'études supérieures de la Renaissance
Download or read book Convention Et Théâtre written by Centre d'études supérieures de la Renaissance and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consacrée à la publication d'études sur le théâtre de la Renaissance européenne - et d'abord anglaise - et sur la culture qui le nourrit, la collection «THETA» se veut lieu de rencontre et de débat, accueillant sans exclusive toutes les approches. Les quinze essais de ce recueil abordent diverses formes et stratégies dans l'imposant registre de la convention théâtrale. Si cette notion essentielle intéresse évidemment l'élaboration de la forme, du texte dramatique à celui de la représentation, ses fonctions sont aussi parfois paradoxales, et peuvent même concerner la réception de l'oeuvre immédiatement ou à terme, jusqu'à en reconstruire les significations esthétiques ou le poids idéologique. Primarily meant to host studies about the drama of the English - and European - Renaissance, as well as the culture in which it is rooted, the «THETA» series aims to be a forum for exchange and debate. The fifteen essays in the present volume address a variety of forms and strategies of the conventional elements at work in the late C15 and C16 corpus of English plays. Known to be an essential factor in the writing proper - be it of the dramatic or the performance text - convention may work in paradoxical ways, even affecting play reception in the short or in the long term, to the point of altering its aesthetic features and ideological impact.
