Book excerpt: Many of us have questions about the Bible: Can we believe the Bible? What was Jesus’ mission? What is sin? Does hell exist? Is anyone beyond God’s forgiveness? In A Jesuit Off-Brodway, James Martin, SJ, answers these questions about the Bible, and other big questions about life, as he serves as a theological advisor to the cast of The Last Days of Judas Iscariot. Grab a front-row seat to Fr. Martin's six months with the LAByrinth Theater Company and see first-hand what it's like to share the faith with a largely secular group of people . . . and discover, along with Martin, that the sacred and the secular aren't always that far apart.

Download or read book The Jesuit Theater of Jacob Masen written by Jacob Masen (SJ) and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1987 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of the Jesuit school theater, Jacob Masen (1606-1681) has long had a reputation as a playwright second only to his countryman Bidermann. With no modern editions of his plays, and translations of the Latin original extremely limited, few readers have had direct access to Masen's theater. It presents in modern English three exemplary Masen plays: Androphilus, Maurice, and Rusticus imperans. A brief introduction places the plays within the context of Masen's life and century, and his theoretical writings on the theater. The book is the only English edition of Masen's plays.

Download or read book Japan on the Jesuit Stage written by Haruka Oba and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-01 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Japan on the Jesuit Stage offers a comprehensive overview of the representations of Japan in early modern European Neo-Latin school theater. The chapters in the volume catalog and analyze representative plays which were produced in the hundreds all over Europe, from the Iberian Peninsula to present-day Croatia and Poland. Taking full account of existing scholarship, but also introducing a large amount of previously unknown primary material, the contributions by European and Japanese researchers significantly expand the horizon of investigation on early modern European theatrical reception of East Asian elements and will be of particular interest to students of global history, Neo-Latin, and theater studies.

Download or read book Japan on the Jesuit Stage written by Akihiko Watanabe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-11-17 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jesuits were a major source of European information on Japan from the late 16th to early 17th century. Not only were they active missionaries but they also produced linguistic, religious and cultural tracts, regional chronicles, as well as hundreds of Latin plays written in imitation of classical Greco-Roman theatre but set in Japan. An intriguing yet underexplored segment of Jesuit school theatre is that which stages non-classical, non-Western subjects such as Japan, and this volume is the first to present Latin texts of two of these plays alongside full English translations, commentaries and an extensive introduction. The plays in question - Martyrs of Japan and Victor the Japanese - were performed in Koblenz and Munich, in 1625 and 1665 respectively, and are collated from original 17th-century manuscripts for this edition. They were based on specific events which took place in Japan in 1597 and 1613, and their main characters are historically attested Japanese Catholic converts and their pagan peers. The juxtaposition of the Latin texts and original English translations makes the plays newly accessible to a wide readership, shedding light on the ways in which Western classical humanism rooted in ancient Mediterranean theatre became intertwined with momentous historical developments across the globe to produce these unique spectacles. The introduction and commentary examine the historical, cultural and literary contexts and provide guidance on interpretative and stylistic issues, allowing for a full appreciation of the plays in which pagan classical, Christian, early modern European and Japanese elements come together.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From before history was recorded to the present day, theatre has been a major artistic form around the world.

Every aspect of human activity and human culture can be, and has been, incorporated into the creation of theatre.
