Download or read book Edward II Classic Reprint written by Christopher Marlowe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Edward II Colleague, R. D. Waller, from all responsibility for the long delay. The chief cause of it has been the vain hope of discovering some new fact concerning the dark period in the history Of Pembroke's company of actors. The edi tion as now issued endeavours to conform to the plan of the series, and the editors accept joint responsibility for the whole of it. They have profited greatly from the edition published by the American scholar, W. D. Briggs, in 1914. They are, too, very greatly indebted to the general editor, Mr. R. H. Case, and most of all for his patience in circum stances which must have tried him most sorely. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This exciting new edition of Edward II is indeed reader friendly. Of particular distinction are the introductory sections which include a thorough account of Marlowe's biography, a fresh critical examination of the play, plus a bibliography for further reading; a wise consideration of the date and text; and extensive annotations, especially helpful to students who have difficulties with the language. Of special value to both students and scholars are the Related Texts that follow the text of the play: three sections of documentary evidence on historical sources; power and politics; and love, friendship, and homoeroticism--all vital to an understanding of the play. No previous edition of the play manages to encompass so much." --Robert A. Logan, University of Hartford
Download or read book Edward II written by Christopher Marlowe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-04-18 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marlowe's play retains its power to shock even today, and this edition gives full value to its three overriding themes of sexual favouritism, political confrontation and sheer cruelty. Critics in the last twenty years, who have focused on the overtly sexual relationship between Edward and his favourite Gaveston, have hailed it as a 'gay classic'; earlier interpretations concentrated rather on the deposition by his subjects of a weak king, reading it in tandem with Shakespeare's Richard II. The introduction shows how the play works to give the audience an equal emotional commitment to opposing points of view and concludes that this is what makes Edward II such an uncomfortable and challenging play.
Download or read book Edward II Revised written by Christopher Marlowe and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-07-31 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dramatically compressing the reign of Edward II and enlivening the historical narrative with humour, romance, and horrific violence, Marlowe interrogates how the transgression of accepted codes of behaviour affects even those at the highest level of society. Kept off the stage for almost three hundred years because of its dramatization of explicit homosexual relationships, it has become increasingly popular with modern day readers and performed on stage and film to great acclaim. This student edition contains a completely new introduction by Stephen Guy-Bray, and offers students a useful and lively overview of recent criticism, an updated performance history paying greater attention to Derek Jarman's film, a background on the author and themes, as well as an updated bibliography and a fully annotated version of the playtext.

Download or read book Edward II written by Bertolt Brecht and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 1994-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward II is, in a sense, Bertolt Brecht's only tragedy. Based on Christopher Marlowe's classic of the same name, it departs from its source as widely as The Threepenny Opera departs from Gay's Beggar's Opera. Brecht has made a multitude of technical changes calculated to streamline the play, with a smaller cast and simpler action, and he has created virtually new and totally compelling characters with his extravagant variations on Anne, Edward's queen, and Mortimer, the villain of the piece. Brecht also reinterprets Marlowe's famously homosexual protagonist, creating an Edward initially more crudely homoerotic and ultimately more truly heroic. Brecht's Edward is a hero for the modern era: an existential hero defying a meaningless universe with his courage.
