These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is illustrated throughout by Sir John Gilbert, and includes an introduction by Ned Halley.

Bibliography

Index

Notă biografică

William Shakespeare (23.4.1564 in Stratford ¿ 23.4.1616 in Stratford) gehört neben Christopher Marlowe und Ben Jonson zu den maßgeblichen Protagonisten des Elisabethanischen Theaters. Der Sohn eines Handschuhherstellers besucht eine Lateinschule und beginnt mit seiner Mitgliedschaft bei den Lord Chamberlain¿s Men (später King¿s Men) seine Karriere als Schriftsteller, Lyriker und Schauspieler. Ab 1599 ist Shakespeare Teilhaber des Globe Theaters in London. 1612 zieht er zurück in seine Heimatstadt Stratford, wo er seinen Lebensabend verbringt. Neben 154 Sonetten und Versdichtungen werden ihm 38 Dramen zugeschrieben, die er in einem Zeitraum von 21 Jahren zu Papier bringt. Bekannt sind Geschichtsdramen, wie etwa »Julius Cäsar« (»Julius Caesar«), »Heinrich V.« (»King Henry V.«) oder»Richard III«. Daneben stehen Komödien wie »Ein Sommernachtstraum« (»A Midsummer Night¿s Dream«) oder »Viel Lärm um nichts« (»Much ado about nothing«) oder Tragödien, wie »Macbeth«, »Othello«, »Hamlet« und »König Lear« (»King Lear«). In »Romeo und Julia« (»Romeo and Juliet«) schuf Shakespeare eines der populärsten Liebespaare der Theatergeschichte.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
King Richard III provides a portrait of Shakespeare's most enduring arch-villain, a man who plots against his brothers, nephews, friends and the powerful women in his life, including Lady Anne, Queen Margaret and Queen Elizabeth.

This influential history play almost displaces the original historical figure it represents as it traces Richard's rise to the throne in 15th century England. Disability and masculine villainy characterise nearly all performances of Richard III, spotlighting early modern and contemporary prejudice about their equivalence. This edition challenges the centrality of Richard as absolute villain who casts all others in his shadow, making space for the formidable women who oppose him.

Exploring overlooked sources of influence, from Tacitus to St Paul, witchcraft to racialisation, and the possibility of Queen Elizabeth I watching a courtly performance of Richard III, this edition highlights what endures and what transforms in a play about the ruthlessness of narcissistic despotism.

The Arden Shakespeare Fourth Series King Richard III provides:
- A critical introduction to the play's textual, cultural and performance history
- An edition that reassesses the complex textual history of the Quarto and Folio texts
- Detailed on-the-page notes explaining language, character and performance
- A clear page layout with an easy-to-read font and single-column notes
- Images of relevant productions, paintings and texts

The Arden Shakespeare Fourth Series includes a new edition of every Shakespeare play, the poems and sonnets. Each volume is edited afresh by a leading scholar specialising in cutting-edge research on performance, gender, sexuality and race. These editions cover everything you need to know as a student, teacher, researcher, theatre-maker and performer of Shakespeare's works today.

Recenzii

There is much to admire about Siemon's labours here, and taken in its own edition is a fine resource for those wanting to read a well annotated text of the play or to go deeply into the performance and textual histories of the play...
'James R. Siemon, aided by a crack team of general editors (Richard Proudfoot, George Walton Williams and David Scott Kastan), has produced a nearly perfect edition of the play...(a) supremely engaging edition.'
