Download or read book Drama in Early Tudor Britain, 1485-1558 written by Howard B. Norland and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A time of great changes after nearly a century of foreign wars and civil strife, the Tudor era witnessed a significant transformation of dramatic art. Medieval traditions were modified by the forces of humanism and the Reformation, and a renewed interest in classical models inspired experimentation. Howard B. Norland examines Tudor plays performed between 1485 and 1558, a time when drama reached beyond local, popular, and religious contexts to treat more varied and more secular concerns, culminating in the emergence of comedy and tragedy as major genres. The theater also imported dramas from the Continent, adapting them to English tastes. After establishing the popular dramatic traditions of fifteenth-century Britain, Norland discusses the critical interpretation of the Latin plays of Terence studied in the schools and the views of influential authors such as Erasmus, Vives, and More about what drama should be and do. The heart of the book is its in-depth analyses of individual plays. Norland examines the secularization of the morality play in Skelton's Magnificence, Bale's King John, Respublica, and Redford's Wit and Science and he traces the changes in comic form from Medwall's Fulgens and Lucres through Calisto and Melebea and Johan Johan to Udall's Roister Doister and Gammer Gurton's Needle. The final section examines the first tragedies written in England: Watson's Absolom, Christopherson's Jephthah, and Grimald's Archipropheta. Howard B. Norland is a professor of English at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. His articles have appeared in Genre, Sixteenth Century Journal, Fifteenth Century Studies, Comparative Drama, and Journal of Medieval and Renaissance Studies.

Book excerpt: Part One: The History (What do we know?) This brief historical introduction to Thomas More explores the social, political and religious factors that formed the original context of his life and writings, and considers how those factors affected the way he was initially received. What was his impact on the world at the time and what were the key ideas and values connected with him? Part Two: The Legacy (Why does it matter?) This second part explores the intellectual and cultural ‘afterlife’ of Thomas More, and considers the ways in which his impact has lasted and been developed in different contexts by later generations. Why is he still considered important today? In what ways is his legacy contested or resisted? And what aspects of his legacy are likely to continue to influence the world in the future?

Download or read book St. Thomas More written by Christopher Hollis and published by London : Burns & Oates. This book was released on 1961 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If there is one contemporary writer qualified to give a keenly appreciative study of the "merry man and saint,' Thomas More, it is Christopher Hollis. A British scholar himself, an historian, and a subtle humorist, Christopher Hollis possesses the precise intellectual equipment to make Thomas More's gift for learning and laughter seem entirely plausible. While enough has been written about Thomas More, to make the broad outlines of his life and his personality familiar to the world, few of his biographers have delved as deeply into his literary achievements as Christopher Hollis. In this book will be found not only a fresh and important interpretation of his well-known "Utopia," and sharp, analytical surveys of his less famous works which reflected his reaction to the turbulent times in which he lived. Here, then, is an intensely sympathetic and critical study of England's greatest Chancellor. It measures up to Thomas More's full stature as a wise and kindly father, a saintly but never solemn Christian, a trustworthy statesman, a loyal friend, and, above all, a man of whose courage whose high sense of right and justice eventually led him to die a martyr's death on the executioner's block. And the secret of his greatness can be found in the pages of this extraordinary book."-Publisher.
