Download or read book The Farce of Sodom written by John Wilmot Rochester and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Farce of Sodom is a sexually explicit play which satirizes the reign of Charles II of England during the Restoration of the English monarchy. Explicit and uncompromising in tone, this send-up of the Royal Court grossly exaggerates the rumors surrounding the court of the king. We witness the homosexual King Bolloximian ban ordinary sexual intercourse in his kingdom, decreeing that only anal intercourse be permitted among the entire population. The excesses of the wealthy are shown in a sequence of erotic acts in a court preoccupied with luxuriating in debauchery. Eventually the nature of the acts the wealthy are consigned to perform upsets enough members of the court, and King Bolloximian is violently deposed. He and his closest companions are then consigned to hellfire. Although this play has a politically satirical edge in its portrayals of the English upper class, it is mostly considered by scholars to be an example of early erotic literature. Much English sexual slang is demonstrated, with most of the character's names being a play on these terms. The dialogue commonly lapses to lewd rhyming, and the narration and plot is heavily supported by sexual acts spontaneously performed between characters with the barest of pretexts. Banned for centuries, during recent years The Farce of Sodom has attracted renewed appreciation, with a version of the drama staged at the 2011 Edinburgh Festival.

Download or read book Sodom written by Isaac Bashevis Singer and published by Playsmith. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Likely written in the 1950s, Sodom is an original play by the Polish-born Jewish-American laureate of the Nobel Prize for Literature. The play, based on the biblical tale of Lot and the destruction of Sodom, treats themes to which Singer returned over throughout his career-corruption and repentance. It also exhibits Singer's ability to move between comedy, political satire, and spiritual sentiment, all within a play that is loyal to its biblical sources. Portraying with such canonical characters as Lot and Abraham, the play shifts from comedic dialogue, to critiques of totalitarianism, to expressions of awe and faith, capturing the fear and trembling of the those who believe they have seen the great powers of the Abrahamic God. The play is both a biblical comedy and a spiritual affirmation of the human need for the Divine. 24 characters, doubling and tripling permitted

Download or read book Performing Libertinism in Charles II s Court written by J. Webster and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-08-05 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performing Libertinism in Charles II's Court examines the performative nature of Restoration libertinism through reports of libertine activities and texts of libertine plays within the context of the fraternization between George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham, John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester, Sir Charles Sedley, Sir George Etherege, and William Wycherley. Webster argues that libertines, both real and imagined, performed traditionally secretive acts, including excessive drinking, sex, sedition, and sacrilege, in the public sphere. This eruption of the private into the public challenged a Stuart ideology that distinguished between the nation's public life and the king's and his subjects' private consciences.
