Описание: The Encyclopedia of Shakespeare’s Language is a two-volume encyclopedia offering the first comprehensive account of Shakespeare’s language to use computational methods derived from corpus linguistics – methods of choice for today's lexicographer. Volume 1 is a dictionary from A-M, focussing on the use and meanings of Shakespeare's words, both in the context of what he wrote and in the context in which he wrote. Every word is compared with a 321 million word corpus comprising the work of Shakespeare's contemporaries. The volume establishes in detail both what is unique about Shakespeare's language and what Shakespeare's language meant to his contemporaries, including, for example, their attitudes towards love or death, what it meant to be Welsh or a harlot, or even the significance of eating fish as opposed to beef.Volume 2 is a dictionary from N-Z. As with the first volume, internal comparisons reveal how Shakespeare's language varies dynamically across his works. These show, for example, whether certain words are peculiar to tragedies, comedies or histories, and/or to certain social groups, such as people of high or low social rank, men or women, and they show the stylistic flavour of words, for example whether a word is literary or colloquial.

Описание: Shakespeare's Sonnets are the most famous and controversial love poems in the English language. This book is both an edition of these poems and a guide to how to read them. It is the only current edition which provides an original-spelling text, and prints the poems as they appeared in the first edition, Shake-speares Sonnets (1609), preserving the spelling, punctuation, italics, and capitalization of the original. The advantages of reading an original-spelling text are explained, and detailed help is provided in order to assist readers who may be unfamiliar with the conventions of early-modern spelling and punctuation. The introduction discusses the sonnet tradition within which Shakespeare was writing, and the richly suggestive language which he used. The forms of sexuality evoked in the Sonnets are fully charted, but readers are steered away from biographical speculation. The annotation which accompanies the text provides detailed and carefully-targeted glosses which he

Описание: Shakespeare's famous play, Hamlet, has been the subject of more scholarly analysis and criticism than any other work of literature in human history. For all of its generally acknowledged virtues, however, it has also been treated as problematic in a raft of ways.

In Philosophy and the Puzzles of Hamlet, Leon Craig explains that the most oft-cited problems and criticisms are actually solvable puzzles. Through a close reading of the philosophical problems presented in Hamlet, Craig attempts to provide solutions to these puzzles.

The posing of puzzles, some more conspicuous, others less so, is fundamental to Shakespeare's philosophical method and purpose. That is, he has crafted his plays, and Hamlet in particular, so as to stimulate philosophical activity in the "judicious" (as distinct from the "unskillful") readers. By virtue of showing what so many critics treat as faults or flaws are actually intended to be interpretive challenges, Craig aims to raise appreciation for the overall coherence of Hamlet: that there is more logical rigor to its plot and psychological plausibility to its characterizations than is generally granted, even by its professed admirers.

Philosophy and the Puzzles of Hamlet endeavors to make clear why Hamlet, as a work of reason, is far better than is generally recognized, and proves its author to be, not simply the premier poet and playwright he is already universally acknowledged to be, but a philosopher in his own right.

Описание:

Shakespeare and Gender guides students and teachers through the complexities of the representation of gender and sexuality in Shakespeare's work. Informed by contemporary debates and insights into gender and sexuality, including intersectionality, feminist geography, queer and performance studies and fourth-wave feminism, this book provides a lucid and lively discussion of how gender and sexual identity are debated, contested and displayed in Shakespeare's plays and sonnets. Using close textual analysis hand-in-hand with verbal and visual contextual materials the book offers an accessible and intelligent introduction both to how gender debates are integral to the plays and poems, and why we continue to read and perform them with this in mind.

Topics and themes discussed include gendering madness, paternity and the patriarchy, sexuality, anxious masculinity, maternal bodies, gender transgression, and kingship and the male body politic.

Contemporary productions of key plays are examined and discussed in each chapter and are supplemented with production images to reveal how gender debates are presented on the stage. Alongside annotated bibliographies specific to the chapter topic, chapters are accompanied by a conclusion offering points of departure for further work and research.
