Описание: Sparkling with the witty dialogue between Beatrice and Benedict, Much Ado About Nothing is one of Shakespeare`s most enjoyable and theatrically successful comedies. This edition offers a newly edited text and an exceptionally helpful and critically aware introduction. Paying particular attention to analysis of the play`s minor characters, Sheldon P. Zitner discusses Shakespeare`s transformation of his source material. He rethinks the attitudes to genderrelations that underlie the comedy and determine its view of marriage. Allowing for the play`s openness to reinterpretation by successive generations of readers and performers, Zitner provides a socially analytic stage history, advancing new views for the actor as much as for the critic.
Building on scholarship regarding both biblical and early modern sexualities, Members of His Body protests the Christian defense of marital monogamy. According to the Paul who authors 1 Corinthians, believers would do well to remain single and focus instead on the messiah’s return. According to the Paul who authors Ephesians, plural marriage is the telos of Christian community. Turning to Shakespeare, Will Stockton shows how marriage functions in The Comedy of Errors, The Merchant of Venice, Othello, and The Winter’s Tale as a contested vehicle of Christian embodiment. Juxtaposing the marital theologies of the different Pauls and their later interpreters, Stockton reveals how these plays explore the racial, religious, and gender criteria for marital membership in the body of Christ. These plays further suggest that marital jealousy and paranoia about adultery result in part from a Christian theology of shared embodiment: the communion of believers in Christ. In the wake of recent arguments that expanding marriage rights to gay people will open the door to the cultural acceptance and legalization of plural marriage, Members of His Body reminds us that much Christian theology already looks forward to this end.

This volume offers an accessible and thought-provoking guide to this major Shakespearean comedy, surveying its key themes and evolving critical preoccupations. It also provides a detailed and up-to-date history of the play's rich stage and screen performance, looking closely at major contemporary performances, including Josie Rourke's film starring David Tennant and Catherine Tate, Vanessa Redgrave and James Earl Jones at the Old Vic, and the RSC's recent rebranding of it as a sequel.
Moving through to four new critical essays, the guide opens up fresh perspectives, including contemporary directors' deployment of older actors within the lead roles, the play's relationship to Love's Labour's Lost, its presence on Youtube and the ways in which tales and ruses in the play belong to a wider concern with varieties of crime.
The volume finishes with a guide to critical, web-based and production-related resources and an annotated bibliography provide a basis for further research.

Автор: Shaughnessy, Robert (university Of Surrey, Uk) Название: Shakespeare in the theatre: shakespeare and the national theatre, 1963 -1975 ISBN: 1474241042 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781474241045 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 105600.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The National Theatre's years at the Old Vic were the most Shakespearean period in its history, beginning in 1963 with Laurence Olivier's inaugural production of Hamlet, starring Peter O'Toole, and ending in 1975 with Peter Hall's production of the same play led by Albert Finney. Between them lay performances that included Olivier's then-legendary, now deeply controversial, Othello, a celebrated all-male As You Like It, the visit of the Berliner Ensemble with Brecht's version of Coriolanus, Franco Zeffirelli's festive Much Ado about Nothing, and Tom Stoppard's classic offshoot, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead.
Drawing upon a wealth of previously unseen material from the company archives, this book tells the inside story of the National's relationship with Shakespeare, within a landscape of institutional struggle, political upheaval and cultural transformation. Between them, the productions illuminate Olivier's legacy as an actor, his and Hall's achievements as directors, the role of the National in the Shakespearean careers of, amongst others, John Gielgud, Anthony Hopkins, Joan Plowright, Maggie Smith and Billie Whitelaw, its pioneering accommodation of European theatre practitioners, and its distinctive ways of engaging Shakespeare with the Britain of the 1960s and 1970s.
