Book excerpt: The series of plays by Shakespeare's contemporaries continues with a text contained in a well known collection of 15 manuscript play-books, apparently assembled by the actor William Cartwright, who became a bookseller and collector of plays during the Civil War.

Download or read book Shakespeare in the Marketplace of Words written by Jonathan P. Lamb and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-06 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making innovative use of digital and library archives, this book explores how Shakespeare used language to interact with the verbal marketplace of early modern England. By also combining word history with book history, Jonathan P. Lamb demonstrates Shakespeare's response to the world of words around him, in and through the formal features of his works. In chapters that focus on particular rhetorical features in Richard II, The Merchant of Venice, As You Like It, Hamlet, and Troilus and Cressida, Lamb argues that we can best understand Shakespeare's writing practice by scrutinizing how the formal features of his works circulated in an economy of imaginative writing. Shakespeare's interactions with this verbal market preceded and made possible his reputation as a playwright and dramatist. He was, in his time, a great buyer and seller of words.
Download or read book Richard II written by Jeremy Lopez and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-02-07 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguably the first play in a Shakespearean tetralogy, Richard II is a unique and compelling political drama whose themes still resonate today. It is one of the few Shakespeare plays written entirely in verse and its format presents unique theatrical challenges. Politically engaged and controversial, it raises crucial debates about the relationship between early modern art, audience response and state power. This collection provides a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of the critical and theatrical history of the play. The substantial introduction surveys the history of critical interpretations of Richard II since the eighteenth century. The eleven newly written critical essays by leading and emerging scholars in the field then adopt an eclectic range of critical approaches that encourage scholars and students to pursue new and imaginative directions with the text.
Download or read book Shakespeare s Foreign Queens written by Sandra Logan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines Shakespeare’s depiction of foreign queens as he uses them to reveal and embody tensions within early modern English politics. Linking early modern and contemporary political theory and concerns through the concepts of fragmented identity, hospitality, citizenship, and banishment, Sandra Logan takes up a set of questions not widely addressed by scholars of early modern queenship. How does Shakespeare’s representation of these queens challenge the opposition between friend and enemy that ostensibly defines the context of the political? And how do these queens expose the abusive potential of the sovereign? Focusing on Katherine of Aragon in Henry VIII, Hermione in The Winter’s Tale, Tamora in Titus Andronicus, and Margaret in the first history tetralogy, Logan considers them as means for exploring conditions of vulnerability, alienation, and exclusion common to subjects of every social position, exposing the sovereign himself as the true enemy of the state.
Download or read book Thomas of Woodstock written by Peter Corbin and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2009-05-15 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anonymous manuscript play has long been the subject of scholarly dispute regarding its relationship with Shakespeare’s Richard II. This edition, which thoroughly re-examines the text, situates the play within its historical and political context, relating it to the genre of chronicle drama to which it belongs. The manuscript is of particular interest in that it appears to have been used in the playhouse over a considerable period of time and contains what seems to be evidence of the theatre practice of the time. The play is also of special interest for its skillful and original handling of source material which may well have influenced Shakespeare’s Richard II. The extensive appendices drawn from Holinshed, Grafton and Stow provide the reader with the opportunity to investigate the manner in which the dramatist has shaped the material. The editors argue for the play’s stage-worthiness and dramatic complexity, suggesting that its range both of dramatic tone and social inclusiveness indicate the work of a dramatist of considerable skill and subtlety, equal or superior to the Shakespeare of the Henry VI plays.

This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Also known as Thomas of Woodstock, this unique edition is the only one based on a computerized analysis of the anonymous, hand-written MS in the British Library. Designed for actors and directors, but including scholarly notes and a comparative review of the MS's 13 earlier editions, the meticulously edited text concludes with a 'conjectural emendation' in the Elizabethan manner winding up the story.

This long-forgotten masterpiece completes the 'Hollow Crown' cycle filling in the narrative between Edward III and Shakespeare's Richard II, which begins immediately after its dramatic depiction of King Richard's first deposition and restoration in December, 1387.
