Book excerpt: Examines the portrayal of the Jew in British drama, as well as Jewish dramatic works and Jewish actors who were prominent on the Jewish and non-Jewish stage. Discusses, with particular emphasis, antisemitic depictions of the Jew from the Middle Ages to the present, including the passion plays, Marlowe's "The Jew of Malta", Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice", the figures of Judas and of the Wandering Jew, Richard Cumberland's "The Jew" as an attempt to counter the antisemitic depictions (produced in 1794), and several works of the 19th century. The 19th century saw the development of sympathetic depictions of Jews as well, and of a thriving Jewish theater (both in English and Yiddish).

Download or read book British Drama of the Industrial Revolution written by Frederick Burwick and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the advent of the French Revolution and the short-lived success of the Chartist Movement, overworked and underpaid labourers struggled to achieve solidarity and collective bargaining. That history has been told in numerous accounts of the age, but never before has it been told in terms of the theatre of the period. To understand the play lists of a theatre, it is crucial to examine the community which that theatre serves. In the labouring-class communities of London and the provinces, the performances were adapted to suit the local audiences, whether weavers, or miners, or field workers. Examining the conditions and characteristics of representative provincial theatres from the 1790s to 1830s, Frederick Burwick argues that the meaning of a play changes with every change in the performance location. As contributing factors in that change, Burwick attends to local political and cultural circumstances as well as to theatrical activities and developments elsewhere.
