Download or read book Mourning Becomes Electra written by Eugene O'Neill and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-07-21 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mourning Becomes Electra" is a play cycle written by prominent American playwright Eugene O'Neill. This work is the 20-century version of the ancient Greek tragedy "Oresteia" written by Aeschylus in the 5th century B.C. The Greek play concerns the murder of Agamemnon by Clytemnestra, the murder of Clytemnestra by Orestes, the trial of Orestes, and the end of the curse on the House of Atreus. The characters of the modern play parallel characters from the ancient Greek plays. For example, Agamemnon from the Oresteia becomes General Ezra Mannon. Clytemnestra becomes Christine, Orestes becomes Orin, etc. The play features murder, adultery, incestuous love, and revenge like the Greek tragedy.
Download or read book Eugene O'Neill written by Egil Törnqvist and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2004-01-14 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eugene O'Neill wrote his plays for a theatre in which the playwright would take a central position. He presented himself as a controlling personality both in the texts--in the form of ample stage directions--and in performances based on these texts. His plays address several audiences--reader, spectator, and production team--and scripts were often different from the published versions. This study examines O'Neill's multiple roles as a writer for many audiences. After a description of O'Neill's working conditions and the multiple audiences of the plays, this study examines the various formal aspects of the plays: titles, settings in time and place, names and addresses, language, and connections and allusions to other works. An examination of the plays follows, with particular emphasis on Bound East for Cardiff, Long Day's Journey Into Night, and A Touch of the Poet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aeschylus' Agamemnon, the first play in the Oresteia trilogy, is one of the most influential theatrical texts in the global canon. In performance, translation, adaptation, along with sung and danced interpretations, it has been familiar in the Greek world and the Roman empire, and from the Renaissance to the contemporary stage. It has been central to the aesthetic and intellectual avant-garde as well as to radical politics of all complexions and to feminist thinking. Contributors to this interdisciplinary collection of eighteen essays on its performance history include classical scholars, theatre historians, and experts in English and comparative literature. All Greek and Latin has been translated; the book is generously illustrated, and supplemented with the useful research aid of a chronological appendix of performances.

Book Synopsis Down the Nights and Down the Days by : Edward L. Shaughnessy
Download or read book Down the Nights and Down the Days written by Edward L. Shaughnessy and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2000-06-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This latest book from veteran O’Neillian Edward L. Shaughnessy examines the influence of the Irish playwright’s Catholic heritage on his moral imagination. Critics, due to O'Neill's early renunciation of faith at age 15, have mostly overlooked this presence in his work. While Shaughnessy makes no attempt to reclaim him for Catholicism, he uncovers evidence that O'Neill retained the imprint of his Irish Catholic upbringing and acculturation in his work. Shaughnessy discusses several key plays from the O’Neill cannon, such as Long Day’s Journey into Night, The Iceman Cometh, and Mourning Becomes Electra, as well as the lesser-known Ile and Days Without End. Winner of the Irish in America Manuscript competition, Down the Days and Down the Nights: Eugene O’Neill’s Catholic Sensibility is a compelling investigation into the psyche of one of the most brilliant, internationally honored playwrights of our time.
