Cambridge University Press From Text to Performance in the Elizabethan Theatre Preparing the Play for the Stage
Book SynopsisDavid Bradley sets out to discover how Elizabethan theatre companies prepared plays for performance: how playwrights understood the composition of the actor-companies they wrote for, how actors followed their directions for entrances and exits and what happened when plays were adapted for changes on personnel or for other companies. For his study, Bradley has evaluated documents which survived from the records of Stage Revisers (or Plotters as they were known). Bradley's evidence includes seven theatre plots and seventeen manuscript plays, come from theatre productions which took place at the Shakespearean playhouse, or Rose Theatre. The Stage Revisers worked from plots or lists which indicated the action taking place on stage, the props needed, costume changes and the actors who should appear. The book contains reproductions of the extant plots of the period, an appendix listing playwrights, plays, theatre companies and the number of actors needed for performance and an extensive biblTable of ContentsIntroduction; 1.

Cambridge University Press Literary Theory and Criticism in the Later Middle Ages
Book SynopsisThis collection makes a new, profound and far-reaching intervention into the rich yet neglected terrain? between Latin scholastic theory and vernacular literatures. Written by a multidisciplinary team of leading international authors, the chapters honour and advance Alastair Minnis' field-defining scholarship.Trade Review'Rich in insights into literate and pedagogic practices throughout the medieval period, generous in its bibliographical reach, this volume is altogether worthy of its distinguished honorand. While directing attention to influential but still under-studied figures such as Bromyard and Holcot, the volume as a whole asks the big questions about relationships between scholasticism and vernacular knowledge, focusing in particular on diverse translations of authority between Latin, French and English. It is also valuable for the nuanced awareness, shared by all its contributors, of the silences and uncertainties surrounding some of the relationships between theory and literary practice in this period. It triumphantly demonstrates the continuing validity and impact of the essay collection in advancing knowledge in a research field of enduring vitality.' Mishtooni Bose, University of Oxford'Lovers of literary learning appreciate nothing so much as theory that locks into and illuminates literature. Alastair Minnis not only excavated a vast field of such lucid theory, but taught the rest of us how to dig. The wonderfully rich essays by accomplished scholars in this volume bring a great deal more to the surface, to exhilarating effect.'

Pindar Press Studies of Petrarch and His Influence
Book SynopsisProfessor Joseph Trapp has been Director of the Warburg Institute, and is an authority on Renaissance humanism and the classical tradition. The present volume brings "together twenty-one of Professor Trapp's more recent papers on the illuminated manuscripts of Petrarch, and his lasting "influence. The fifteenth- and sixteenth-century movement which led to a European revaluation of social, political, ethical, literary, artistic and intellectual experience and which we know as the Renaissance was given its decisive early impetus from Italy in the fourteenth by Francesco Petrarca (1304-1374). Petrarch is present, sometimes visibly, sometimes all but invisibly, within all the manifestations of the Renaissance imagination covered by these essays. His presence is most obvious in the first division of this book, Petrarch Illustrated, where a comprehensive survey and a number of specialized studies bring up to date and in other ways augment the great work of the prince d'Essling and Eugène Muntz, published in 1902 and now in need of revision in many respects. In the second section, Petrarch is present by reputation and implication, and through the homage paid to him, directly in pilgrimage to and adornment of places where he lived and the search for personal mementos, or indirectly in the search by generations succeeding him for the authentic image of the classical authors whom he studied, imitated, revered and loved as friends, or in the permeation into Northern Europe of the study of the classics which he saw as the guide to letters and to life and its modification by humanists and Biblical scholars. Erasmus, Thomas More and William Tyndale, widely different in both their Christian faith and their views of the Biblical text in Latin, Greek or English, without consciously being aware of it, owed their preoccupation with the texts ultimately to the example of Petrarch and his Italian successors, particularly the schoolmaster Guarino of Verona and the great philologists Lorenzo Valla and Angelo Poliziano.Table of ContentsPreface Petrarch Illustrated: The Iconography of Petrarch in the Age of Humanism Illustrated Manuscripts of Petrarch's De remediis Petrarch's Triumph of Death in Tapestry Illustrations of Petrarch's Trionfi from Manuscript to Print and from Print to Manuscript The Illustration of Petrarch's Secretum The Illustration of Petrarch's Letters Petrarch's Long Legacy: Europe: The Cult of Petrarch: 1.
