Download or read book The Story of Joseph in Spanish Golden Age Drama written by Michael D. McGaha and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book includes critical studies and English translations of six different dramatic versions of the biblical story of Joseph and his brothers written during the century and a half from about 1535 to 1685 - that is, from the earliest attempts at full-length drama to the end of the classical period, which is usually dated around the year of Calderon de la Barca's death in 1681. Three of the plays are full-length dramas, while the rest belong to the peculiarly Spanish genre of one-act religious plays known as autos sacramentales. Comparison of these six variations on a theme enhances our understanding of the gradual evolution of both the auto and the comedia (full-length) genres during the Golden Age. In addition to the biblical story, Spanish playwrights drew upon a rich tradition of retellings of the Joseph story written during the Middle Ages by Muslim, Jewish, and Christian Spaniards. Each of these ethnic and religious groups developed new interpretations of the story dictated by the historical circumstances of a particular time and place, yet each was influenced by the versions created by the others. Ultimately, this grudging collaboration produced a uniquely "multicultural" version of the story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English Reformation created a unique rift between English culture and the cultural tradition followed by a large proportion of a predominantly Catholic Europe. This religious change in England creates an opportunity for comparison with another country that still maintained its Catholic tradition, Spain. In this thesis, I explore English Renaissance drama's increasing concern with the self on stage, contrasting it with Spanish Golden Age drama's visual focus. Important terms used throughout this thesis to highlight the fundamental difference between English and Spanish drama are "external" and "internal". While theatre is fundamentally an external medium, part of what makes English Renaissance theatre unique is its experimentation with depicting a character's interior world. An interior theatre is a theatre where the characters explore their "selfhood" which, in turn, can inspire contemplation in the audience. This gives the illusion that the characters on stage are real human beings with thoughts processes and backstories of their own. To call Spanish theatre external, by comparison, is to talk of a theatre that has a visual focus; a focus that fully acknowledges the audience as simply a spectator enjoying the show rather than creating the illusion that the audience is engaged in a deeper relationship with the characters on stage. To fully explore this argument, this thesis is divided into three chapters. The first chapter compares the portrayals of fate and repentance in Antonio Mira de Amescua's El Esclavo del Demonio with Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus. The second chapter looks at participation and the portrayal of the religious other in Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice, Marlowe's The Jew of Malta, Lope de Vega's El Niño Inocente de la Guardia and The Play of the Sacrament. The third chapter contrasts Shakespeare's Hamlet with Calderón de la Barca's El Purgatorio de San Patricio. A comparison between the portrayal of purgatory in Calderón and in Shakespeare demonstrates how the plays have to function within commonly accepted views of the period, emphasising the strong link between religious and theatrical practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From before history was recorded to the present day, theatre has been a major artistic form around the world.

Exploring the role that theatre artists play — from the actor and director to the designer and puppet-master, as well as the audience — this is an engaging exploration of what theatre has meant, and still means, to people of all ages at all times.

Download or read book Pathos in Late-Medieval Religious Drama and Art written by Gabriella Mazzon and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pathos as Communicative Strategy in Late-Medieval Religious Drama and Art explores the strategies employed to trigger emotional responses in late-medieval dramatic texts from several Western European traditions, and juxtaposes these texts with artistic productions from the same areas, with an emphasis on Britain. The aim is to unravel the mechanisms through which pathos was produced and employed, mainly through the representation of pain and suffering, with mainly religious, but also political aims. The novelty of the book resides in its specific linguistic perspective, which highlights the recurrent use of words, structures and dialogic patterns in drama to reinforce messages on the salvific value of suffering, in synergy with visual messages produced in the same cultural milieu.
