Download or read book Measure for Measure written by William Shakespeare and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-08-23 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measure for Measure is among the most passionately discussed of Shakespeare's plays. In it, a duke temporarily removes himself from governing his city-state, deputizing a member of his administration, Angelo, to enforce the laws more rigorously. Angelo chooses as his first victim Claudio, condemning him to death because he impregnated Juliet before their marriage. Claudio's sister Isabella, who is entering a convent, pleads for her brother's life. Angelo attempts to extort sex from her, but Isabella preserves her chastity. The duke, in disguise, eavesdrops as she tells her brother about Angelo's behavior, then offers to ally himself with her against Angelo. Modern responses to the play show how it can be transformed by its reception in present culture to evoke continuing fascination. To some, the duke (the government) seems meddlesome; to others, he is properly imposing moral standards. Angelo and Isabella's encounter exemplifies sexual harassment. Others see a woman's right to control her body in Isabella's choice between her virginity and her brother's life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of Shakespearean tragedies, including the full texts of Titus Andronicus, Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, Macbeth, Hamlet, King Lear, Othello, and Antony and Cleopatra. ROMEO AND JULIET One of the Bard's most popular plays, Romeo and Juliet is both the quintessential account of young love and the cautionary tale of the tragedy that can occur when the forces of passion and pride are at odds. JULIUS CAESAR In this striking tragedy of political conflict, Shakespeare turns to the ancient Roman world and to the famous assassination of Julius Caesar by his republican opponents. MACBETH When a trio of witches foretell that Macbeth will become King of Scotland, the brave general is consumed by ambition. Encouraged by his wife to seize the throne, their quest for power leads down a blood strewn path that ends in madness and death in this play that explores the consequences of guilt and corruption. HAMLET One of the greatest plays of all time, the compelling tragedy of the tormented young prince of Denmark continues to capture the imaginations of modern audiences worldwide. Confronted with evidence that his uncle murdered his father, and with his mother’s infidelity, Hamlet must find a means of reconciling his longing for oblivion with his duty as avenger. Includes the following plays: Troilus and Cressida Coriolanus Titus Andronicus Romeo and Juliet Timon of Athens Julius Caesar Macbeth Hamlet, Prince of Denmark King Lear Othello, the Moor of Venice Antony and Cleopatra Cymbeline Pericles, Prince of Tyre

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's the Tempest: With Introduction, and Notes Explanatory and Critical, for Use in Schools and Classes Of the thirty-seven plays that have come down to us from the pen of Shakespeare very few can be precisely dated as to the time of their composition. Although this inexactness applies in the case of The Tempest, there are reasons for thinking that Shakespeare wrote this play very near the end of his career. We know that the more he wrote the better he wrote. If we were to compare The Tempest with one of his early plays, as, for example, the comedy of Love's Labour's Lost, we should at once be aware of a very wide difference between them. The earlier play, though bearing the distinguishing quality which we call Shakespearean, is yet one which might very well have come from the hand of a man who was only beginning to learn the difficult art of play-writing - on it are many marks of the hand of an apprentice workman. In The Tempest, on the other hand, all such shortcomings of inexperience and immaturity have vanished. It could have been composed only by a man who had gained complete mastery over the art of poetic and dramatic craftsmanship. Moreover, the similarity of The Tempest in spirit and manner to Cymbeline and The Winter's Tale, plays which Shakespeare wrote near the close of his long dramatic career, places it in the same period. In all likelihood it was the last play he wrote before he went back to the beautiful countryside of Stratford, the home of his boyhood, where he lived five or six years more, a happy and prosperous gentleman. Besides this, there is other evidence which not only strengthens the feeling that The Tempest was of late composition but which also helps us to give a reasonably exact date to the play.
