Download or read book A Study of London in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth Classic Reprint written by T. Fairman Ordish and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of London in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth Composed as a study of the London environment of Shakespeare, of the scenes and circumstances amid which his plays were originally produced, this little work, by the addition of the Itinerary now made to it, may serve the purpose of a Guide to Shakespeare's London, Past and Present. The Commentary, how ever, is limited to the life and work of the poet in London: the Itinerary itself follows the same lines. Of the London which Shakespeare knew there are happily existing more reliques than are noticed in these pages: in the city are churches which he may have visited, which could hardly be included in a practical working Itinerary. These may be added to the suggested perambulations according to con venience and opportunity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Elizabeth s London written by Liza Picard and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2014-01-28 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liza Picard immerses her readers in the spectacular details of daily life in the London of Queen Elizabeth (1558-1603). Beginning with the River Thames, she examines the city on the north bank, still largely confined within the old Roman walls. The wealthy lived in mansions upriver, and the royal palaces were even farther up at Westminster. On the south bank, theaters and spectacles drew the crowds, and Southwark and Bermondsey were bustling with trade. Picard examines the Elizabethan streets and the traffic in them; she surveys building methods and shows us the decor of the rich and the not-so-rich. Her account overflows with particulars of domestic life, right down to what was likely to be growing in London gardens. Picard then turns her eye to the Londoners themselves, many of whom were afflicted by the plague, smallpox, and other diseases. The diagnosis was frequently bizarre and the treatment could do more harm than good. But there was comfort to be had in simple, homely pleasures, and cares could be forgotten in a playhouse or the bull-baiting and bear-baiting rings, or watching a good cockfight. The more sober-minded might go to hear a lecture at Gresham College or the latest preacher at Paul's Cross. Immigrants posed problems for Londoners who, though proud of England's religious tolerance, were concerned about the damage these skilled migrants might do to their own livelihoods, despite the dominance of livery companies and their apprentice system. Henry VIII's destruction of the monasteries had caused a crisis in poverty management that was still acute, resulting in begging (with begging licenses!) and a "parochial poor rate" paid by the better-off. Liza Picard's wonderfully vivid prose enables us to share the satisfaction and delights, as well as the vexations and horrors, of the everyday lives of the denizens of sixteenth-century London.

Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Shakespeare s Queens written by Kavita Mudan Finn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of Shakespeare’s thirty-seven plays, fifteen include queens. This collection gives these characters their due as powerful early modern women and agents of change, bringing together new perspectives from scholars of literature, history, theater, and the fine arts. Essays span Shakespeare’s career and cover a range of famous and lesser-known queens, from the furious Margaret of Anjou in the Henry VI plays to the quietly powerful Hermione in The Winter’s Tale; from vengeful Tamora in Titus Andronicus to Lady Macbeth. Early chapters situate readers in the critical concerns underpinning any discussion of Shakespeare and queenship: the ambiguous figure of Elizabeth I, and the knotty issue of gender presentation. The focus then moves to analysis of issues such as motherhood, intertextuality, and contemporary political contexts; close readings of individual plays; and investigations of rhetoric and theatricality. Featuring twenty-five chapters with a rich variety of themes and methodologies, this handbook is an invaluable reference for students and scholars, and a unique addition to the fields of Shakespeare and queenship studies.

This book was released on 2009-03-02 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,3, University of Augsburg (Philologisch-Historische Fakultät: Englische Literaturwissenschaft), course: Proseminar: Shakespeare and Metamorphosis Sommersemester 2008, language: English, abstract: There are about 2.800 books and about 47.000.000 web pages to be found today discussing Shakespeare’s life and his works. In this literary and historical jungle it is extremely difficult to find a topic that has not been dissected, discussed and academically proliferated upon ad anfinitum. Nevertheless, today’s inquisitive reader is still asking the same questions that have been asked over generations. One of these is for example. “Was William Shakespeare only an excellent and renowned Elizabethan playwright out to entertain a public yearning for the latest sensationalist entertainment? Or is there a hidden, more subtle, political voice to be interpreted when listening to or reading his words”? This essay will attempt to analyse the possible social, political inferences in Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus with regard to Queen Elizabeth the monarch and Elizabeth the woman. Furthermore, this essay will compare various contemporary political authors with the statements being made in the playwrights work.
