Download or read book The Globe Restored written by Cyril Walter Hodges and published by London ; Toronto [etc.] : Oxford U.P.. This book was released on 1968 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When in 1644 the Globe playhouse was pulled down on Bankside, there disappeared forever a building which had been not only 'the quick forge and working house' of Shakespeare's genius and 'the Glory of the Banke' as Ben Johnson called it, but was one of a kind altogether unique in theatrical history. But since no proper record of its use and appearance has survived, what we now know of the Globe and its rival playhouse in Shakespeare's London is mostly the result of the careful piecing together, by modern scholars, of scattered evidence from many different sources. The Globe Restored, which was first published in 1953, has now been widely accepted as one of the most comprehensive and illuminating works of reconstruction of this famous playhouse. It combines a careful study of the evidence with a disciplined use of conjecture. It is also the most fully illustrated work on the subject. The author, himself the artist, has provided many reconstruction drawings of his own to supplement a wide collection of illustrations from historical sources, many of them new to this context. This new edition has been greatly enlarged. The original text has been expanded and revised in the light of recent studies in Europe and America. A new chapter, dealing with reconstructions of the Globe, has been added, and there are many additional illustrations, including a two-page reconstruction." -Publisher.

Download or read book The Elizabethan Theatre and The Book of Sir Thomas More written by Scott McMillin and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-30 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The manuscript of the Elizabethan play Sir Thomas More has intrigued scholars for over a century because three of its pages may have been written by Shakespeare. The Elizabethan Theatre and "The Book of Sir Thomas More" sets aside the timeworn question of authorship and considers the play in a new framework, one which by focusing on questions of the theatre attempts to free Elizabethan theatre history from the grip of its most famous author. Bringing to bear on the manuscript the perspective of a theatre historian and the resources of textual scholarship, Scott McMillin departs from most critical accounts, which have judged Sir Thomas More unfinished. Rather, McMillin addresses the manuscript as a coherent and finished work that achieves its intended purpose: to serve as a prompt book in the Elizabethan playhouse. His systematic analysis of the Sir Thomas More manuscript shows that the company for which it was written was unusually large, that it had a lead actor of outstanding capability, and that in its staging of the play it probably made use of visual repetition as an ironic device. He concludes that the theatre company of the period that most closely matched this description was Lord Strange's men, a company, incidentally, for which Shakespeare himself was known to have written in the early 1590s. Textual scholars, theatre historians, and students and scholars of Elizabethan drama will welcome The Elizabethan Theatre and "The Book of Sir Thomas More."

Download or read book Elizabethan Theatre History An Annotated Bibliography of Scholarship 1664 1979 written by David Stevens and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-11 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formerly published as "English Renaissance Theatre History: A Reference Guide" by G. K. Hall in 1982, this annotated bibliography of scholarship in the field of Elizabethan theatre history has been out of print for almost 30 years. Most academic libraries have a copy in their reference departments, and this classic is now available for the personal libraries of students and scholars in the field. It has never been easier to review the academic literature in such areas as reconstructions of Shakespeare's Globe Playhouse, and other public and private playhouses of Shakespeare's London; the court masques; Inigo Jones; Richard Burbage and other actors of the time; the Lord Mayor's Shows; Puritan opposition to the stage; and other such topics. The terminal date of 1979 reflects the date of original production, but with this tool it is a simple matter for the scholar to update his or her review of the literature. The comprehensive Index is invaluable, and Stevens also provides a preface and introduction.
