Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hamlet From the Actors Standpoint: Its Representatives, and a Comparison of Their Performances These notes are preceded by an account of the most illus trions Hamlets known to the stage, and here the writer has been compelled to follow in the steps of Mr. Austin Brere ton, whose Some Famous Hamlets appeared in London some time after this part of the present work was begun. If this experiment in dealing with the stage history and aspect of Hamlet meets with the approval of those whom it is intended to interest, other plays may receive similar treatment at the hands of the writer, who, as one of the toilers of the Press, has made long and diligent search among theatrical annals for the information which it is proposed to embody in a stage history OF famous plays, of which this may be considered the first volume.

Download or read book I Am Hamlet written by Steven Berkoff and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What goes through a man's mind when he is playing Hamlet? How does Shakespeare's best-known play actually work, from the inside? Steven Berkoff is an actor, playwright, and director with an extraordinary talent for conveying powerful ideas and emotions. His production of Hamlet, in which he took the title role, began in Edinburgh in 1979, went on to the Round House in London, and toured throughout Europe for the next two years. The company completed its final performance as guests of Jean-Louis Barrault at his Rond Point Theater, where the audience gave the production a tempestuous ovation. During the tour Berkoff kept a journal and recorded the workings of the play from the director/actor's point of view. On the basis of that diary Berkoff has created an intensely personal analysis of the play with a line-by-line examination of the text and the way he approached it in his production. His detailed observations show how his imagination covers a wide range of human experience--from love and death to the nature of marriage and the messianic fervor of Hamlet. I Am Hamlet not only reveals the mind of a fascinating actor and director at work, it is also a singular encounter with a part that "touches the complete alphabet of human experience" and that every actor feels he is born to play.

Download or read book Hamlet an Actor Classic Reprint written by S. M. Perlmann and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hamlet, an Actor Legt Ihr's nicht aus, so legt was unter. Thus, when unable to find the texts answering their predetermined conceptions, they violated them and imputed to them all kinds of meanings, interpreting them as agreeing with their own imagination. The student of a logical mind, . Who isacquainted with the superabundant literature of the Bible and Hamlet exegesis, when reviewing it critically and unbiassed, must be greatly sur prised to find an enormous amount of strange vagaries, accumulated at random, that are good enough only to satisfy the whims of their own authors. Fortunately, as far as the Bible is concerned, the critics have made great progress in the last decades; they were intrepid enough to maintain as an axiom that science alone is the criterion for truth, and nothing recorded as a fact can claim to be recognised as such - no matter on what authority it claims to rely - if science proves the impossibility of such an occurence. We may acknowledge with joy and satisfaction that this valiant principle has secured great advantages for the Bible students, by destroying the old narrow fence, and allowing them a free outlook. It is regrettable to see most of the Hamlet interpreters clinging to the old traditions, and lacking vigour to emulate the Bible critics. The former dare not abandon the position once occupied, out of fear to profane the hero by looking at him from a somewhat lower point of view, as if it Were a sacrilege to discover in the idolized hero human faults and human weaknesses. Therefore most of the Hamlet expositors onlydiffer one from another by the varying phrases and subtleties they use. We naturally find the theatre managers and actors on the retinue of the old expounders, trained as they were all their life to act mechanically, in accordance with the long-adopted, one-sided conceptions. They do not like to submit to new perceptions, which will needs compel them to study anew the difficult and refined part of the hero. It is perhaps im possible for them to re-shape the pantomimes, and to alter the mode of performing the part once inculcated, and to which they have become habituated.
