Shakespeare Retold

Shakespeare's The Tempest gets the Margaret Atwood treatment in this ingenious, funny, tear-jerking story about a theatre director intent on revenge. Felix is at the top of his game as Artistic Director of the Makeshiweg Theatre Festival. His productions have amazed and confounded. Now he's staging a Tempest like no other. It will boost his reputation. It will heal emotional wounds. Or that was the plan. Instead, after an act of unforeseen treachery, Felix is living in exile in a backwoods hovel, haunted by memories of his beloved lost daughter, Miranda. Also brewing revenge.After twelve years, revenge finally arrives in the shape of a theatre course at a nearby prison. Here, Felix and his inmate actors will put on his Tempest and snare the traitors who destroyed him. It's magic! But will it remake Felix as his enemies fall?'Surpassingly brilliant' The Times'Riotous, insanely readable and just the best fun...' Observer**LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2017**SHAKESPEARE RETOLD: Time travel. Zombies. Power-hungry media moguls. This is Shakespeare as you've never seen him before. Nine iconic stories transformed by the best novelists of our time, celebrating the Bard's lasting legacy.

Rhyme and Reason

Literatur und Recht

Im 18. Jahrhundert werden in Auseinandersetzungen um die Geltung der deutschsprachigen Literatur und ihrer Regeln nicht selten Begriffe und Strukturen aus dem Recht verwendet. Die Studie betrachtet unter Rückgriff auf rechtswissenschaftliche Forschung zum Geltungsbegriff zentrale Auseinandersetzungen der Zeit aus rhetorischer Perspektive und fragt nach den Gründen für diese Bezugnahmen auf das Recht. Sie liefert damit nicht nur theoretische Impulse zur Verwendung des Geltungsbegriffes in der Literaturwissenschaft, sondern auch umfassende Untersuchungen zur rhetorischen Praxis eines zentralen Kapitels deutschsprachiger Literatur.

100 berühmte Zitate und ihre überraschenden Geschichten

A story about stories within stories, as four interconnected mysteries take the reader through the ages, from Shakespeare's day to a 19th-century Gothic former Priory, to 1920s Venice, and finally to 1940s California, from the internationally bestselling author of The Turnglass. We begin with the last testament of William Shakespeare as he investigates the real-life murder mystery of his friend, playwright Christopher Marlowe. The second story is a 19th-century Gothic tale about the discovery of Shakespeare's manuscript, set in an isolated former Priory, now a clinic for those who cannot sleep. The third is a lighter Golden Age detective tale set in Venice, where private investigator Honora Feldman looks into a baffling case of theft and murder in the British expat community, with the Gothic story at its heart. And finally, a 1940s American Noir, as Ken Kourian finds that a serial killer is recreating all the murders in The Waterfall, the companion book to his friend Oliver Tooke's The Turnglass. The Waterfall is a beguiling and intricate mystery that cements Gareth Rubin's position as one of the most original authors writing today. PRAISE FOR THE TURNGLASS, THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER:&nbsp; 'This is a story about stories and their perspectives, the passage of time and the slow march of the inevitable. Vivid, resonant, melancholy and beautiful' JANICE HALLETT&nbsp; 'Rubin has pulled off the difficult trick of writing an ambitious novel that is also an easy, enjoyable read' THE TIMES, CRIME BOOK OF THE MONTH 'A bold, breathtaking piece of writing that absolutely nails its two books in one conceit. I doubt I'll ever read anything like it again, which is the highest compliment I can offer' STUART TURTON 'A stunning, ingenious, truly immersive mystery... a thrilling delight' CHRIS WHITAKER 'An intricate and thoroughly mesmerising tale of family plots and schemes across several generations' GUARDIAN, THRILLER OF THE YEAR 'Your initial amazement at his ingenuity comes to sit alongside an appreciation for the heart and depth he brings to his stories. A risky idea, beautifully executed' DAILY TELEGRAPH

A beguiling and intricate mystery from Sunday Times bestselling author Gareth Rubin

The Waterfall

“Fiercely funny, sexy, and culturally resonant.” —People, Best Books of the Month • “Shamieh balances her characters’ painful family history and their boisterously funny voices.” —The New Yorker A “wonderfully brash and sparkling” (Oprah Daily, Best Books of the Year) novel that explores exile, love, and freedom across three generations of women—“a Palestinian American Sex and the City” (The Atlantic). Arabella gets an unexpected chance at love when she’s thrust into a conflict and history she’s tried to avoid all her life. Zoya is playing matchmaker for her last unmarried granddaughter and stirring up buried memories. Naya is keeping a secret from her children that will change all their lives. Thirty-five-year-old Arabella, a New York theatre director whose dating and career prospects are drying up, is offered an opportunity to direct a risqué cross-dressing interpretation of a Shakespeare classic—that might garner international attention—in the West Bank. Her mother, Naya, and grandmother, Zoya, hatch a plot to match her with Aziz, a Palestinian American doctor volunteering in Gaza. Arabella agrees to meet Aziz, since her growing feelings for Yoav, a celebrated Israeli American theatre designer, seem destined for disaster... With biting hilarity, Too Soon introduces us to a trio of bold and unforgettable voices. This dramatic saga follows one family’s epic journey fleeing war-torn Jaffa in 1948, chasing the American Dream in Detroit and San Francisco in the sixties and seventies, hustling in the New York theatre scene post-9/11, and daring to stage a show in Palestine in 2012. Upon learning one of them is living on borrowed time, the three women fight to live, make art, and love on their own terms. A funny, sexy, and heart-wrenching literary debut, Too Soon illuminates our shared history and asks, how can we set ourselves free?

Die romantischen Tragödien eines Drama Kings

Psychoanalytic Horizons

This material and theoretical history of seriality shows it to be the dominant form of culture since its inception within 19th-century print culture, as both a media structure and a psychic one. The serial is everywhere. Commonly identified by the segmented release structure of an ongoing narrative - from installments of Victorian novels to TV episodes to comic books - seriality names the spread of installment-based storytelling across a range of media. However, Ryan Engley argues that seriality is not only a narrative structure but also a psychic structure. Seriality - in its dependence on gaps, delay, and constraint - names the fundamental trauma of contemporary life: that there exists an intrinsic relation between self and other, a relation that is often difficult to see and difficult to bear. Through formal readings of media texts alongside Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis, the dialectical method of G.W.F. Hegel, and Jean-Paul Sartre's existentialism, Seriality: Media and the Psychic Form of Everyday Life shifts the focus of seriality studies. In so doing, Engley presents a rebuttal to the common refrain that our lives, like contemporary media, have become endlessly fragmented. Rather, Engley finds, we have become radically - serially - connected.

Media and the Psychic Form of Everyday Life

Seriality

In Shakespeare, memory, and modern Irish literature, Nicholas Taylor-Collins charts the ways that the modern Irish nation is underwritten by Irish writers whose own cultural agency is improved by their engagement with William Shakespeare. Through a wide-ranging theoretical approach, Taylor-Collins privileges forms of intertextual memory that avoid the obvious quotation or explicit reference: this innovating proposal for a 'dismemorial' intertextuality allows readers to read both Shakespeare and the Irish writers with renewed understanding of their craft. In the Introduction, Taylor-Collins establishes the grounds for comparison: both early modern England and modern/contemporary Ireland deploy a commemorative practice reliant on the theatre as a locus. Thereafter Taylor-Collins proceeds to examine the Shakespeare-Ireland connection through ghosts, bodies, and the land. In the first section, an exploration of Hamlet's hauntology enhances readings of J. M. Synge's Playboy of the Western World, James Joyce's Ulysses, and John Banville's Ghosts. The second section explores first how antitheatrical corporal economies in Coriolanus and Ben Jonson's satires re-emerge in Beckett's Three Novels, before moving on to Caithleen in Edna O'Brien's The Country Girls Trilogy as she borrows from 'hysterical' forebears in Othello, The Taming of the Shrew, and The Winter's Tale. The final section explores W. B. Yeats's infatuation with the surface of the land via King Lear and As You Like It, before finishing with Seamus Heaney's rootedness in the land via Hamlet's jumping into Ophelia's grave. For scholars and students of Shakespeare and modern/contemporary Irish literature alike, this book will also appeal to continental theorists.
