Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This four-volume Companion to Shakespeare's Works, compiled as a single entity, offers a uniquely comprehensive snapshot of current Shakespeare criticism. Brings together new essays from a mixture of younger and more established scholars from around the world - Australia, Canada, France, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Examines each of Shakespeare’s plays and major poems, using all the resources of contemporary criticism, from performance studies to feminist, historicist, and textual analysis. Volumes are organized in relation to generic categories: namely the histories, the tragedies, the romantic comedies, and the late plays, problem plays and poems. Each volume contains individual essays on all texts in the relevant category, as well as more general essays looking at critical issues and approaches more widely relevant to the genre. Offers a provocative roadmap to Shakespeare studies at the dawning of the twenty-first century. This companion to Shakespeare's histories contains original essays on every history play from Henry VI to Henry V as well as fourteen additional articles on such topics as censorship in Shakespeare's histories, the relation of Shakespeare's plays to other dramatic histories of the period, Shakespeare's histories on film, the homoerotics of Shakespeare's history plays, and nation formation in Shakespeare's histories.

Download or read book English Literature, Its History and Its Signi the English-Speaking World written by William J. Long and published by anboco. This book was released on 2016-09-05 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, which presents the whole splendid history of English literature from Anglo-Saxon times to the close of the Victorian Era, has three specific aims. The first is to create or to encourage in every student the desire to read the best books, and to know literature itself rather than what has been written about literature. The second is to interpret literature both personally and historically, that is, to show how a great book generally reflects not only the author's life and thought but also the spirit of the age and the ideals of the nation's history. The third aim is to show, by a study of each successive period, how our literature has steadily developed from its first simple songs and stories to its present complexity in prose and poetry. To carry out these aims we have introduced the following features: (1) A brief, accurate summary of historical events and social conditions in each period, and a consideration of the ideals which stirred the whole nation, as in the days of Elizabeth, before they found expression in literature. (2) A study of the various literary epochs in turn, showing what each gained from the epoch preceding, and how each aided in the development of a national literature. (3) A readable biography of every important writer, showing how he lived and worked, how he met success or failure, how he influenced his age, and how his age influenced him. (4) A study and analysis of every author's best works, and of many of the books required for college-entrance examinations. (5) Selections enough--especially from earlier writers, and from writers not likely to be found in the home or school library--to indicate the spirit of each author's work; and directions as to the best works to read, and where such works may be found in inexpensive editions. (6) A frank, untechnical discussion of each great writer's work as a whole, and a critical estimate of his relative place and influence in our literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Shakespeare's 'The Complete Works of William Shakespeare' is a comprehensive collection of his plays, sonnets, and poems, showcasing his unparalleled talent in the English language. With a combination of comedies, tragedies, and histories, Shakespeare's works explore themes of love, power, jealousy, and ambition.

William Shakespeare, often regarded as the greatest playwright in English literature, drew inspiration from classical sources, mythology, and historical events. His deep understanding of human nature and his ability to capture the essence of the human experience set him apart as a literary giant. 'The Complete Works of William Shakespeare' reflects his enduring legacy and serves as a testament to his enduring influence on the world of literature. I highly recommend 'The Complete Works of William Shakespeare' to any reader interested in delving into the genius of one of history's most prolific writers. This collection offers a diverse range of plays and poems that continue to captivate audiences and scholars alike, making it a must-read for anyone looking to explore the depth and breadth of Shakespeare's literary prowess.

Download or read book 'Counterfeiting' Shakespeare written by Brian Vickers and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-09-19 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brian Vickers examines the issue of what Shakespeare actually wrote, and how this is determined. Shakespeare's authorship has been claimed for two poems, 'Shall I die?' and A Funerall Elegye. Vickers shows that neither has the requisite stylistic and imaginative qualities. In other words, they are 'counterfeits', in the sense of anonymously authored works wrongly presented as Shakespeare's. He identifies John Ford as author of the Elegye.
