McFrederick M: Staging Beckett in London

Staging Beckett in London

A behind-the-scenes look into US efforts to contain North Korea’s nuclear capabilities and why they have not worked &nbsp; For almost four decades, the United States has tried to halt North Korea’s march to build nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them. Joel S. Wit, a former State Department official, takes readers to the front lines of nuclear negotiations, to fierce policy debates and secret diplomatic gambits, recounting how perilously close the United States and North Korea have come, on various occasions, to nuclear confrontation. Based on more than three hundred interviews with officials in Washington, Beijing, and Seoul, as well as with the author’s contacts in North Korea, this book chronicles how six American presidents have approached the problem of North Korea. &nbsp; Wit points to Barack Obama and Donald Trump as the two presidents most responsible for the failure to halt the march to nuclear capability, since it was under their successive tenures that North Korea acquired the ability to threaten every city in North America. Wit also offers an unparalleled portrait of Kim Jong Un that refutes his caricature as impulsive and illogical. Like his father and his grandfather, Kim is a ruthless despot, but he is also a canny and informed negotiator determined to secure his dictatorship’s future by exploring diplomacy or, failing that, by building a nuclear arsenal.

Hart Studies in Constitutional Law

This book provides the most complete history of the Regency Acts and Counsellors of State ever undertaken. Using documents from the National Archives, the book outlines why the position was created in the early 20th century, how the question of a regency and Counsellors of State became entangled with the abdication of Edward VIII, and how the position became a crucial feature of the reign of Elizabeth II. Counsellors of State were a little-known part of the constitutional monarchy. Yet, recently, the role has attracted public scrutiny as Princes Harry and Andrew remain Counsellors despite their withdrawal from public life. Counsellors can deputise for the monarch when they are overseas or unwell, ensuring that the monarchy can continue to fulfil its constitutional functions. The book explains the role of Counsellors and the legal and practical problems surrounding their functions. It also discusses the problems with how the Regency Acts provide for a regent. The reign of Charles III raises important questions both for the present and the future. The King is known to favour a "slimmed down", more flexible, modern monarchy. Reforming the positions of Counsellors of State and regent could be part of this. Should the position be used to smooth the transition to William V? Should the British monarchy follow examples from other monarchies in Europe and allow a monarch to retire with the heir to the throne acting as regent? The book concludes with suggested reforms to ensure that the modern monarchy continues to fulfil its constitutional duties.

Bloomsbury Ancient Comedy Companions

Plautus' Poenulus (or Little Carthaginian) is a staggering work. Performed in the years after Rome's traumatic struggle with Hannibal's Carthage, the comedy stages the restoration of a Carthaginian family divided through enslavement. This book explores the play's many themes such as slavery and war trauma, which resonate especially today, in a series of short thematic chapters followed by a continuous reading of the play. By presenting to a post-war Roman audience a tale of heartbreak and heartache among Carthaginians, and by setting the action in a Greece marked by comedic expectations and the geography of contemporary imperial conquest, Plautus' play stands as perhaps the most powerful surviving meditation on a Mediterranean world changed by Roman expansion. The play is populated by war veterans, enslaved peoples - including sex-workers, domestic slaves, and those who labour in the countryside - and an intersectional cast of Carthaginians and Greeks, a diversity that prompts audience interaction with a wide range of socio-cultural topics relevant to Plautus' Rome. By engaging weighty matters through song, slapstick, puns, and orientalising spectacle, Poenulus appears to defang charged issues, but its bite is deep. The play also includes one of the most metatheatrical prologues of all surviving Roman dramatic works, which thematizes the act of writing comedy and the constitution of the Roman theatrical audience.
