Book excerpt: Excerpt from University Studies of the University of Nebraska, Vol. 13 Companies in all the public theatres Shifted and changed like satellites in erratic orbits about central suns. None were stable. Uncertain financial conditions, internal differences, or other theatrical troubles were the common causes. Almost every change of company can be traced to financial difficulties. More than an equal share of these troubles huddled on the backs of the Burbages in connection with the Theatre and its companies from the first. Briefly may we survey the troubled years that led up to the organization of the burbage-shakespeare company and the building of the Globe.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The University Studies of the University of Nebraska, Vol. 1 If an excessively diffused material substance be supposed scattered through space in a gaseous state, such a body could only absorb selectively through its atoms, its molecules being too widely scattered to allow of any transformation of energy into molecular friction. Hence the only loss, other than by selective absorption, would be in the ether itself. The ab sorption would then take place according to the same laws which determine it when such a substance is not present.

Download or read book Thornton Wilder Classical Reception and American Literature written by Stephen J. Rojcewicz, Jr. and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delineates how Thornton Wilder (1897–1975), a learned playwright and novelist, embeds himself within the classical tradition, integrating Greek and Roman motifs with a wide range of sources to produce heart-breaking masterpieces such as Our Town and comedy sensations such as Dolly Levi. Through this study of archival sources and close reading, readers will understand Wilder’s avant-garde staging and innovative time sequences not as a break with the past, but as a response to the classics. The author traces the genesis of unforgettable characters like Dolly Levi in The Matchmaker, Emily Webb in Our Town, and George Antrobus in The Skin of Our Teeth. Vergil’s expression, "Here are the tears of the world, and human matters touch the heart" haunts Wilder’s oeuvre. Understanding Vergil’s phrase as "tears for the beauty of the world," Wilder utilizes scenes depicting the beauty of the world and the sorrow when individuals recognize this too late. Wilder exhorts us to observe lovingly, alert to the wonder of the everyday. This work will appeal to actors and directors, professors and students in classics and in American literature, those fascinated by modern drama and performance studies, and non-specialists, theatre-goers, and readers in the general public.

Download or read book Myth and Environment in Recent Southwestern Literature written by Theda Wrede and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The romantic perception of the American Southwest as a wild and dangerous frontier where heroic settlers prove their endurance has often responded to a common human desire to escape from the pressures of civilization and experience an “authentic” relationship with nature. This idealized notion about life in the Southwest, however, has contributed the subjugation of the indigenous populations and the natural world while helping rationalize the conquest of both. In Myth and Environment in Recent Southwestern Literature, Theda Wrede brings contemporary Southwestern American literature under the microscope to examine the ways in which the mythic narrative has influenced attitudes toward the land in the region. Focusing on popular novels by Corrmac McCarthy, Barbara Kingsolver, Leslie Marmon Silko, and Denise Chávez, Wrede explores the psychology behind the myth and discusses the ways in which the four authors deploy the mythic narrative, interrogate its validity, and offer visions for alternative modes of inhabiting the Southwest. In combining ideas from a culturally sensitive ecofeminist theory, psychoanalysis, postcolonial studies, and literary studies, the study offers an innovative conceptual framework for discussions about environmental responsibility in the twenty-first century. Finally, it also encourages its readers to partake in the process of mythogenesis by imagining “sustainable” narratives to help rescue the promise of the Southwest for the new millennium.
