Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two plays about cultural identity from Scotland and Catalonia, which received their English-language premières in August 1999 at the Royal Lyceum Theatre as part of the Edinburgh International Festival in Traverse Theatre Company productions The Speculator by David Greig is set in Paris in 1720. The French playwright Pierre Marivaux is playing games with love and chance. Europe is in chaos. And John Law, a Scot from Edinburgh, is the richest and most powerful man in the world. He upsets order and alters the value of money. How long can his influence last? David Greig's new play is a rambunctious costume drama that toys with history and questions whether imagination can, or should, triumph over truth. Some events in the play are true. The rest is speculation. The Meeting by Lluïsa Cunillé and translated by John London, follows a string of chance encounters. A businessman on a journey crosses paths and shares his life with those of passing strangers. An old man is convinced there is buried treasure in the city park. A watchmaker talks to him about time. A young man and a traveller speak of their discontent. Shared pasts and common desires create a web of complexity in Luisa Cunillé's challenging play, turning random meetings into rendezvous with destiny. "David Greig is the most consistently interesting, prolific and artistically ambitious writer of his generation" (Scotsman) "Frequently compared to Harold Pinter...Cunillé has discovered a special style" (ABC, Madrid)

Book excerpt: 'The Speculator' is an intelligent, passionate costume drama with anachronisms about the illusionary quality of wealth, set in Paris in 1720. Europe is in chaos. The French playwright Pierre Marivaux is playing games with love and chance, having an affair with his leading lady. And John Law, a Scot from Edinburgh, is the richest and most powerful man in the world: he has persuaded everyone that pieces of paper are worth more than gold. France has given up on petty metal currency, its wealth based on shares of the new lands in America. As only Law understands the abstractions of his financial system, how long can the dream last? 'The Speculator' was first performed in Catalan in 1999 at the Mercat de les Flors, Barcelona; it was first performed in English at the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh in the same year.
Download or read book The Futures written by Emily Lambert and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2010-12-28 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Futures, Emily Lambert, senior writer at Forbes magazine, tells us the rich and dramatic history of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and Chicago Board of Trade, which together comprised the original, most bustling futures market in the world. She details the emergence of the futures business as a kind of meeting place for gamblers and farmers and its subsequent transformation into a sophisticated electronic market where contracts are traded at lightning-fast speeds. Lambert also details the disastrous effects of Wall Street's adoption of the futures contract without the rules and close-knit social bonds that had made trading it in Chicago work so well. Ultimately Lambert argues that the futures markets are the real "free" markets and that speculators, far from being mere parasites, can serve a vital economic and social function given the right architecture. The traditional futures market, she explains, because of its written and cultural limits, can serve as a useful example for how markets ought to work and become a tonic for our current financial ills.
