Cambridge University Press Shakespeare Time and the Victorians A Pictorial Exploration
Book SynopsisTime and the visual sense were two essential preoccupations of the Victorians, and both were central to their presentations of Shakespeare's plays. In this extensive new study, Stuart Sillars examines multiple facets of this complex relationship. The desire for authenticity in production, in the work of Charles Kean and his followers, leads to elaborate sets that define and direct the performances' movement through time. Visual artists of all kinds fracture and extend the plays' movements, the Pre-Raphaelites through new techniques and approaches, illustrators through new forms of engraving and printing, and photographers through the emerging forms of the medium. The book also considers the multiple forms in which performances were recorded and re-created visually, and absorbed into the memories of their viewers. With many previously unpublished images, it draws together multiple fields to offer a new perspective on one of the most productive and various periods of Shakespeare activityTrade Review'… an exhilarating gallery of Shakespearean images as these featured on the nineteenth century stage, as well as on canvas and print. This richly illustrated book offers new insights into Victorian cultural history, as Shakespeare the chronicler of the past morphs into Shakespeare the timeless moralist … Specialists in art and theatre history will revel in the range and scholarship of this engaging analysis.' Catherine Belsey, Swansea University'Multidisciplinary in scope and imaginatively illustrated, Stuart Sillars's wonderfully well-informed study casts a bright light on Victorian philosophy and on the period's artistic and theatrical aesthetics.' Stanley Wells, The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust'If you want to know anything about Shakespeare and the visual arts then Stuart Sillars is your man.' Around the Globe'The author provides a lavish selection of colour plates of Victorian Shakespeare pairings … Sillars' treatment of Victorian Shakespeare is visually compelling and intellectually rewarding.' Choice'Sillars' focus remains predominantly aesthetic, and he is unquestionably a master of the form … Few scholars can match Sillars for his close readings of how images disclose themselves to viewers … Every reader stands to profit from the author's exemplary understanding of how images work in themselves and how they work upon those who look at them.' Shakespeare Quarterly'It will remain an outstanding contribution to this field for many years to come … an outstanding book on one significant element within Victorian culture.' J. B.

Book SynopsisShakespeare Survey is a yearbook of Shakespeare studies and production. Since 1948 Survey has published the best international scholarship in English and many of its essays have become classics of Shakespeare criticism. Each volume is devoted to a theme, or play, or group of plays; each also contains a section of reviews of the previous year's textual and critical studies and of major British performances. The books are illustrated with a variety of Shakespearean images and production photographs. The current editor of Survey is Peter Holland. The first eighteen volumes were edited by Allardyce Nicoll, numbers 19-33 by Kenneth Muir and numbers 34-52 by Stanley Wells. The virtues of accessible scholarship and a keen interest in performance, from Shakespeare's time to our own, have characterised the journal from the start. For the first time, numbers 1-50 are being reissued in paperback, available separately and as a set.Table of ContentsList of plates; 1.
