Описание: Performed variously as escapist fantasy, celebratory fiction, and political allegory, The Tempest is one of the plays in which Shakespeare`s genius as a poetic dramatist found its fullest expression. Significantly, it was placed first when published in the First Folio of 1623, and is now generally seen as the playwright`s most penetrating statement about his art. Stephen Orgel`s wide-ranging introduction examines changing attitudes to The Tempest, andreassesses the evidence behind the various readings. He focuses on key characters and their roles and relationships, as well as on the dramatic, historical, and political context, finding the play to be both more open and more historically determined than traditional views have allowed.
Описание: This volume is a broad-ranging guide to Othello, providing an introduction to the contexts of the play, the range of critical responses to the play and the play in performance.

Описание: In this forceful study, Helen C. Scott situates The Tempest within Marxist analyses of the `primitive accumulation` of capital, which she suggests help explain the play`s continued and particular resonance.
Argues that the Essais of Montaigne were a crucial factor in the composition of later Shakespearean drama
A new way of accounting for the different sorts of plays that Shakespeare wrote later in his career
A detailed history of the literary-critical interest in the Montaigne-Shakespeare connection, from the eighteenth century to the present day
Case studies that, through sustained close-readings of Montaigne’s essays and Shakespeare’s plays, shows the shared concerns of the authors
A new approach that differs from the more typical method of looking merely for verbal echoes, resulting in a deeper, richer sense of the way that Shakespeare’s reading of Montaigne shaped his writing
In this revisionist study, Peter G. Platt provides a detailed history of the literary-critical interest in the Montaigne–Shakespeare connection from the eighteenth century to the present day. Through sustained close-readings of Montaigne’s essays and Shakespeare’s plays, Platt explores both authors’ approaches to self, knowledge and form that stress fractures, interruptions and alternatives. While the change in monarchy, the revived interest in judicial rhetoric and the alterations in Shakespeare’s acting company helped shape plays such as Measure for Measure, King Lear and The Tempest, this book contends that Shakespeare’s reading of Montaigne is an under-recognised driving force in these later plays.

Описание:
The essays in Playing Shakespeare’s Villains trouble our assumptions of what—and who—constitutes "villainy" in Shakespeare’s works, through probing and provocative analyses of the murky moral logics at play in the Bard’s oeuvre. Shakespeare spreads before us a panoply of evil, villainy, and amorality—of characters doing bad things for good reasons, bad things for bad reasons, and bad things for no reason at all. How does Shakespeare handle culpability and consequence? How much does he justify his villains’ actions? How much do we enjoy watching people get away with murder and mayhem? What are we to make of the moral universe that Shakesperare presents: a universe in which some villains are punished and others seem to be rewarded; where mischief can quickly turn violent; and where an entire world can be brought down by someone’s willful insistence on having one’s way? Questions like these animate the discussions in this lively volume, the second in the Playing Shakespeare’s Characters series.
