  • Publisher : Northwestern University Press
  • Release : 1989
  • ISBN : 9780810108066
  • Pages : 308 pages

Download or read book The Danton Case Thermidor written by Stanisława Przybyszewska and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stanislawa Przybyszewski is recognized as a major twentieth-century playwright on the basis of her trilogy about the French Revolution, of which The Danton Case and Thermidor are the principal parts. The Danton Case depicts the battle for power between two exceptional individuals: the corrupt sentimental idealist, Danton, and the incorruptible genius of the Revolution, Robespierre. Thermidor shows the final playing out of this drama, as Robespierre, left alone with the heroic absolutist Saint-Just, foresees the ruin of himself and his cause, and in his despair predicts that hatred, war, and capitalism will steal the Revolution and corrupt nineteenth-century man.

Book The Oxford Handbook of Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Samuel Taylor Coleridge written by Frederick Burwick and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-24 with total page 779 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical and comprehensive reference work, the Oxford Handbook provides the best single-volume source of original scholarship on all aspects of Coleridge's diverse writings. Thirty-seven chapters, bringing together the wisdome of experts from across the world, present an authoritative, in-depth, and up-to-date assessment of a major author of British Romanticism. The book is divided into sections on Biography, Prose Works, Poetic Works, Sources and Influences, and Reception. The Coleridge scholar today has ready access to a range of materials previously available only in library archives on both sides of the Atlantic. The Bollingen edition, of the Collected Works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, forty years in production was completed in 2002. The Coleridge Notebooks (1957-2002) were also produced during this same period, five volumes of text with an additional five companion volumes of notes. The Clarendon Press of Oxford published the letters in six volumes (1956-1971). To take full advantage of the convenient access and new insight provided by these volumes, the Oxford Handbook examines the entire range and complexity of Coleridge's career. It analyzes the many aspects of Coleridge's literary, critical, philosophical, and theological pursuits, and it furnishes both students and advanced scholars with the proper tools for assimilating and illuminating Coleridge's rich and varied accomplishments, as well as offering an authoritative guide to the most up-to-date thinking about his achievements.

Book Argument of the Play of Fedora

Download or read book Argument of the Play of Fedora written by Victorien Sardou and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Argument of the Play of Fedora: Drama in Four Acts Alas! the first literary battle of this courageous soldier was to end in disorder. The conqueror began with defeat. La Taverne des Etudiants, a comedy in three acts of verse, was, in spite of its amusing qualities, its originality and its many fine lines, a non-success, a failure, a fiasco (we may as well say the word) of the most pronounced description; piteous baptism of fire, which retarded for several years the blossoming of the ardent hopes of the indomitable wrestler. In this plight poor Sardou, shattered but still in a fever of ambitious expectancy, was forced to stand aside and see himself passed by for the successes of that year, 1854, which remained a never to be forgotten year for him. It was then that Sardou, having entered into partnership with Paul Feval, a novelist of the gloomy order, who, in spite of many efforts had, up to that period, obtained no success in the theatre suddenly signed Le Bossu, one of the sword and cloak school of drama, and certainly one of the most charming and the best contrived since the days of Dumas pere. Sardou, when young, had the profile of Bonaparte, as he has now that of Erasmus - having made allowances for the period, he threw into the fire all the used up tricks, worn out phrases, old fashioned platitudes, and in each new work he extended his method. It was then they had Sardou in his early style; airy, amusing, ironical, as in the Pattes de mouche, the Femmes fortes, Nos Intimes and La Famille Benoitou, in the Vieux Garcons and Maison Neuve, exquisite productions, wherein one feels that the author has been the first to take delight in them. Later on he wrote Seraphine and Fernande, both of which are pieces of the first order of merit. One day, one of the brightest which has shed lustre upon Sardou's glory, he turned his attention to the drama of Patrie, and again to La Haine, a tragedy-act at once superior, elevated and, in every way, wonderful. In both these powerful dramas Sardou has stirred up the noblest passions and the purest sentiments. They equal the efforts of the oldest matters as much by their lofty aims as by their style and conception. Then came the war, that terrible war of 1870. The revolution, which followed in its train, furnished Sardou with one of his most thrilling inspirations, Rabagas, a magnificent picture and a cruel satire; a political comedy, wherein the state of the minds, manners, hopes and follies at the moment are faithfully set forth. Patrie, La Haine, Rabagas, Theodora and Fedora are the culminating points of Sardou's prodigious talent. Do you wish to laugh? There is l'Ecureuil, an indescribable fantaisie; there is Le Magot, a topsy-turvy folie, irresistibly contagious; there is Les Gens Nerveux; there is Les Ganuches; and there is Divorcons, a bouffonerie, containing one of the most bitterly philosophical comedies of the day.

    Book Details:
  • Author : Alan Sheridan
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2003
  • ISBN : 0743231945
  • Pages : 504 pages

Download or read book Time and Place written by Alan Sheridan and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2003 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A picaresque journey of a young homosexual in the early nineteenth century, and his attempt to understand the unstoppable currents of his life. The narrator of this extraordinary narrative is Mark Sheridan. Born into the theatrical family of his uncle, R.B Sheridan, he recounts his years with a travelling theatre company, and his turbulent love affair with Esmond, a young actor. Interwoven are flashbacks to his turbulent earlier life and a pre-war world long vanished, his childhood in China, his schooldays in Paris, the months in St Petersburg at the beginning of the 1905 revolution; threading through them all, his awakening sexuality. For men such as he, these were dangerous times. Ruin and imprisonment were their oft companions. TIME AND PLACE is the author's desire to reclaim their lives, to write the book that Marcel Proust and E.M. Forster were unable to; a picaresque journey of a young homosexual in the early nineteenth century and his attempt to understand the unstoppable currents of his life.
