Book Images in Transition

Download or read book Images in Transition written by Abba Rubin and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1984-11-07 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ch. 1 (pp. 3-46) surveys the history of the return of the Jews to England, from the Marranos in the 16th century to the debate on the readmission of the Jews in Cromwell's time, and the debate on the "Jew Bill" in 1753 which rekindled latent antisemitism. The rest of the book examines numerous novels and plays which reflected the current attitude towards Jews. The negative stereotype predominated at first - e.g. in works by Dryden, Defoe, Smollett (in particular), Richardson, and in the revival of Shakespeare's "Merchant of Venice" in the mid-18th century - but a change occurred in 1793 when Richard Cumberland depicted the Jew as a positive character in his play "The Jew". Thereafter, more favorable portrayals appeared in English literature, based on knowledge and on experience of the Jewish reality rather than on ignorance and prejudice, until by 1830 the numbers of negative and positive portrayals were equal.

Book The English Novel  1700 1740

Download or read book The English Novel 1700 1740 written by Robert Letellier and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-02-28 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English novel written between 1700 and 1740 remains a comparatively neglected area. In addition to Daniel Defoe, whose Robinson Crusoe and Moll Flanders are landmarks in the history of English fiction, many other authors were at work. These included such women as Penelope Aubin, Jane Barker, Mary Davys, and Eliza Haywood, who made a considerable contribution to widening the range of emotional responses in fiction. These authors, and many others, continued writing in the genres inherited from the previous century, such as criminal biographies, the Utopian novel, the science fictional voyage, and the epistolary novel. This annotated bibliography includes entries for these works and for critical materials pertinent to them. The volume first seeks to establish the existing studies of the era, along with anthologies. It then provides entries for a wide-ranging selection of works which cover fictional, theoretical, historical, political, and cultural topics, to provide a comprehensive background to the unfolding and understanding of prose fiction in the early 18th century. This is followed by an alphabetical listing of novels, their editions, and any critical material available on each. The next section provides a chronological record of significant and enduring works of fiction composed or translated in this period. The volume concludes with extensive indexes.

Book Theatrical Nation

    Book Details:
  • Author : Michael Ragussis
  • Publisher : University of Pennsylvania Press
  • Release : 2012-05-22
  • ISBN : 0812207939
  • Pages : 258 pages

Download or read book Theatrical Nation written by Michael Ragussis and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2012-05-22 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the most significant development of the Georgian theater was its multiplication of ethnic, colonial, and provincial character types parading across the stage. In Theatrical Nation, Michael Ragussis opens up an archive of neglected plays and performances to examine how this flood of domestic and colonial others showcased England in general and London in particular as the center of an increasingly complex and culturally mixed nation and empire, and in this way illuminated the shifting identity of a newly configured Great Britain. In asking what kinds of ideological work these ethnic figures performed and what forms were invented to accomplish this work, Ragussis concentrates on the most popular of the "outlandish Englishmen," the stage Jew, Scot, and Irishman. Theatrical Nation understands these stage figures in the context of the government's controversial attempts to merge different ethnic and national groups through the 1707 Act of Union with Scotland, the Jewish Naturalization Bill of 1753, and the Act of Union with Ireland of 1800. Exploring the significant theatrical innovations that illuminate the central anxieties shared by playhouse and nation, Ragussis considers how ethnic identity was theatricalized, even as it moved from stage to print. By the early nineteenth century, Anglo-Irish and Scottish novelists attempted to deconstruct the theater's ethnic stereotypes while reimagining the theatricality of interactions between English and ethnic characters. An important shift took place as the novel's cross-ethnic love plot replaced the stage's caricatured male stereotypes with the beautiful ethnic heroine pursued by an English hero.
