Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Fortunatus: A Play The Play and the Characters. Dekker has rightly been styled as, next to Shakespeare, the most poetically romantic of all the great Elizabethans. Had he not been obliged to write from first to last at fever-heat, had he not been compelled to wage a constant war with want, and had leisure been allowed him to work out his richly poetic fancies, he would have stood infinitely higher than he does, and we should not have to deplore so many lapses into fustian and rhodomontade. But he was a true child of his era, and lived from hand to mouth, always maintaining, however, his gay insouciance and trust in the future. Saintsbury's remarks on Dekker in his Short Blistery of English Literature are eminently sympathetic yet critically accurate. Dekker displays in his plays a most charming dramatic genius, a little, as is the wont of the time, chaotic and irregular, but sweet and pathetic, as is in no contemporary save the master of all, especially in the delineation of women's characters, while he has both blank verse and lyric touches and flashes not seldom well sustained of divinest poetry.' The comedy of Old Fortunatus, though containing numberless faults in construction, in weak and ineffective character-drawing.

This book was released on 2004-03 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1892, "the object of this Handbook is to supply readers and speakers with a lucid, but very brief account of such names as are used in allusions and references, whether by poets or prose writers; - to furnish those who consult it with the plot of popular dramas, the story of epic poems, and the outline of well-known tales. The number of dramatic plots sketched out is many hundreds. Another striking and interesting feature of the book is the revelation of the source from which dramatists and romancers have derived their stories, and the strange repetitions of historic incidents. It has been borne in mind throughout that it is not enough to state a fact. It must be stated attractively, and the character described must be drawn characteristically if the reader is to appreciate it, and feel an interest in what he reads." This work, an American reprint of The Reader's Handbook by E. Cobham Brewer, ..".while retaining all of the original material that can interest and aid the English-speaking student, gives also 'characters and sketches found in American novels, poetry and drama.'"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Far from teleological historiography, the pan-European perspective on Early Modern drama offered in this volume provides answers to why, how, where and when the given phenomena of theatre appear in history. Using theories of circulation and other concepts of exchange, transfer and movement, the authors analyze the development and differentiation of European secular and religious drama, within the disciplinary framework of comparative literature and the history of literature and concepts. Within this frame, aspects of major interest are the relationship between tradition and innovation, the status of genre, the proportion of autonomous and heteronomous creational dispositions within the artefacts or genres they belong to, as well as strategies of functionalization in the context of a given part of the cultural net. Contributions cover a broad range of topics, including poetics of Early Modern Drama; political, institutional and social practices; history of themes and motifs (Stoffgeschichte); history of genres/cross-fertilization between genres; textual traditions and distribution of texts; questions of originality and authorship; theories of circulation and net structures in Drama Studies.
