Book excerpt: Nicoll's History, which tells the story of English drama from the reopening of the theatres at the time of the Restoration right through to the end of the Victorian period, was viewed by Notes and Queries (1952) as 'a great work of exploration, a detailed guide to the untrodden acres of our dramatic history, hitherto largely ignored as barren and devoid of interest'.

Book Corneille s Tragedies

    Book Details:
  • Author : Roy Clement Knight
  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 1991
  • ISBN : 9780389209607
  • Pages : 162 pages

Download or read book Corneille s Tragedies written by Roy Clement Knight and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1991 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corneille virtually founded seventeenth-century French tragedy: Le Cid and the three subsequent tragedies gave the genre its models and much of its theory. Many critics have created a synthetic picture of "Cornelian heroism" by seeing these four plays as representative of all Corneille's work, thus neglecting the sixteen others that followed. Now the tide has turned: scholars are trying to analyse the meaning of Cornielle's work with close reference to historical events and political ideas.

Book The Death of Tragedy

Download or read book The Death of Tragedy written by George Steiner and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIVAn engrossing and provocative look at the decline of tragedy in modern art “All men are aware of tragedy in life. But tragedy as a form of drama is not universal.” So begins George Steiner’s adept analysis of the demise of classic tragedy as a dramatic depiction of heroism and suffering. In The Death of Tragedy, Steiner examines the uniqueness and importance of the Greek classical tragedy—from antiquity to the age of Jean Racine and William Shakespeare—as providing stark insight into the grief and joy of human existence. Then, delving into the works of John Keats, Henrik Ibsen, Samuel Beckett, and many more, Steiner demonstrates how the tragic voice has greatly diminished in modern theater, and what we have lost in the process./div

Book Imagery and Ideology

    Book Details:
  • Author : William J. Berg
  • Publisher : Associated University Presse
  • Release : 2007
  • ISBN : 9780874139952
  • Pages : 286 pages

Download or read book Imagery and Ideology written by William J. Berg and published by Associated University Presse. This book was released on 2007 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature is ostensibly a sequential and thus temporal medium, and painting a static and spatial one; yet writers like George Sand and Emile Zola have attempted repeatedly to represent visual and spatial phenomena in literary texts, just as painters like Eugene Delacroix and Claude Monet have sought consistently to capture effects of time and movement on canvas. The incorporation of elements from one artistic medium into another creates a dynamic interplay of image and ideology, both between art forms and within individual texts and paintings, which constitutes the crux of this book. Each chapter involves the detailed analysis of a text and a painting, related through topic, theme, and technique. By juxtaposing the works of ten major writers and ten painters of comparable stature, the book explores the various modalities and layers of meaning in nineteenth-century French art, both verbal and visual, and proposes ways of reading the ambivalent artifacts of "modernity." Illustrated.

Book Dryden s Classical Theory of Literature

Download or read book Dryden s Classical Theory of Literature written by Edward Pechter and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1975-03-20 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Pechter's book attempts to describe the consistent structure, of both style and method, within which Dryden examines, orders and evaluates literary experience. This mode permits Dryden to recognise the real differences between French and English drama, Virgilian and Ovidian style, judgement and fancy (to take some of the more familiar from among Dryden's typical conjunctive pairs), without either merging their differences into some grand synthesis or transforming them into mutually exclusive antitheses. Dryden's is above all a comprehensive theory of literature which aims at responding to a broad range of various literary styles, genres, faculties and effects. Dryden's balance is classical, the poise of the golden mean, and Professor Pechter endeavours to give fresh life to 'classical' as an epithet often previously applied to Dryden. Ranging among writers in ancient Greece and Rome and among Dryden's contemporaries in England and France, the author outlines a rich literary tradition within which Dryden's criticism is more easily appreciated and better understood.
