This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Applause Acting Series).

This volume selects from classical sources like Euripides' Medea and Shakespeare's King Lear , as well as contemporary ones like Yasmina Reza's God of Carnage , Christopher Durang's Vonya and Sonia and Masha and Spike , and David Lindsay-Abaire's Good People , to provide a challenging and enriching experience for both the dedicated professional and the inquisitive amateur.

Download or read book Staging America written by Christopher Bigsby and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-12 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access and available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. It is funded by Knowledge Unlatched. Many of the American playwrights who dominated the 20th century are no longer with us: Edward Albee, Arthur Miller, Sam Shepard, Neil Simon, August Wilson and Wendy Wasserstein. A new generation, whose careers began in this century, has emerged, and done so when the theatre itself, along with the society with which it engages, was changing. Capturing the cultural shifts of 21st-century America, Staging America explores the lives and works of 8 award-winning playwrights – including Ayad Akhtar, Stephen Adly Guirgis, Young Jean Lee and Quiara Alllegría Hudes – whose backgrounds reflect the social, religious, sexual and national diversity of American society. Each chapter is devoted to a single playwright and provides an overview of their career, a description and critical evaluation of their work, as well as a sense of their reception. Drawing on primary sources, including the playwrights' own commentaries and notes, and contemporary reviews, Christopher Bigsby enters into a dialogue with plays which are as various as the individuals who generated them. An essential read for theatre scholars and students, Staging America is a sharp and landmark study of the contemporary American playwright.

Download or read book The Gospel of Judas Second Edition written by Rodolphe Kasser and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2008-06-17 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 1,600 years its message lay hidden. When the bound papyrus pages of this lost gospel finally reached scholars who could unlock its meaning, they were astounded. Here was a gospel that had not been seen since the early days of Christianity, and which few experts had even thought existed–a gospel told from the perspective of Judas Iscariot, history’s ultimate traitor. And far from being a villain, the Judas that emerges in its pages is a hero. In this radical reinterpretation, Jesus asks Judas to betray him. In contrast to the New Testament Gospels, Judas Iscariot is presented as a role model for all those who wish to be disciples of Jesus and is the one apostle who truly understands Jesus. Discovered by farmers in the 1970s in Middle Egypt, the codex containing the gospel was bought and sold by antiquities traders, secreted away, and carried across three continents, all the while suffering damage that reduced much of it to fragments. In 2001, it finally found its way into the hands of a team of experts who would painstakingly reassemble and restore it. The Gospel of Judas has been translated from its original Coptic to clear prose, and is accompanied by commentary that explains its fascinating history in the context of the early Church, offering a whole new way of understanding the message of Jesus Christ.
Download or read book Matthew Mark Luke and Paul written by David Oliver Smith and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and Paul takes you on a journey through the Synoptic Gospels and the Epistles providing a new solution to a literary puzzle that has vexed biblical scholars for over two-hundred years--The Synoptic Problem. When the Synoptic evangelists, Matthew, Mark, and Luke sat down to write their gospels did they have copies of some of the epistles? This book examines the Synoptic Gospels, Hebrews, and Paul's Epistles finding many intriguing similarities, suggesting that the Synoptic evangelists used extensive parts of the epistles to weave into their stories of the ministry of Jesus of Nazareth. David Oliver Smith then compares these epistle-based passages to the theoretical lost gospel Q and finds that a large portion of what many New Testament scholars consider to be contained in Q may have its inspiration in the Epistles.

Download or read book Emanuel written by Graciela Padilla De Amador and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-01-09 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Por amor a Dios y a todos sin excepción, empezaré por decir a ustedes que éste libro, que hoy se presenta, lo escribí con uno y varios fi nes, el primero: la obediencia y otro de ellos: conducir a mis lectores hacia la verdadera fuente de la Palabra Divina, la Biblia o Dios. "Escribe un libro" se me dijo por escrito y en la Biblia misma; sentí que era para mí el mensaje. Entre sorprendida y asustada, volví a abrir la Sagrada Escritura, apareció un segundo mensaje y así hasta completar un corto diálogo mental, en el que Él ordenó y yo contestaba........ el cuál fi gura en las primeras páginas de éste volumen. Me entregué a su escritura de mañana, noche o madrugada. Cuatro veces escribí la historia del Pueblo de Dios, porque Él así lo quiso y permitió una manuscrita, la segunda a máquina, la tercera en computadora y la cuarta: lo imprimí. Siempre puliendo y repuliendo lo ya escrito. Hubo momentos en que sentía un escalofrío o como hormigueo que recorría mi ser, lo percibía como aprobación. Aquello me daba ánimos para continuar. Al principio pensé concretarme únicamente a las mujeres de la Santa Historia, pero me di cuenta que Él quería algo más. "Escribiré la historia de tu Pueblo Padre, ayúdame." Yo hablaba con el pensamiento. Investigué primero en la Sagrada Biblia, en amarillentos y empolvados libro viejos, toqué puertas, me introduje en el texto hasta su propia médula y la pluma corría por las hojas. Me adentré en la historia como supongo los pintores se introducen en el paisaje que pintan y hasta pueden percibir el perfume de las fl orecillas silvestres de su propio cuadro, o los escultores sienten los latidos de los cuerpos que modelan. No soy muy buena escribiendo, pero lo hice con tanto amor y fe y eso es lo que es éste libro: un mensaje de amor y fe. Graciela Padilla de Amador
