Weary of academic study, an eminent scholar turns to magic and makes a deal with the Devil. Mephistopheles will serve him and give him whatever he wants, but after twenty-four years Faustus must keep his side of the bargain. This edition contains a detailed introductory section that puts the play in its historical context, in-depth textual notes, extracts from key critical works and exam-style questions.

Celebrate the incredible journey of Phoebe Waller-Bridge's outrageously funny, blazingly forthright Fleabag, from fringe theatre hit to international cultural phenomenon, in this special edition - featuring the original playscript, never-before-seen colour photos, and exclusive bonus content by Phoebe, director Vicky Jones and key members of the creative team. In 2013, Fleabag made its debut as a one-woman show in sixty-seater venue the Big Belly, at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe's Underbelly. It was an immediate hit, going on to enjoy two runs at London's Soho Theatre, national and international tours, whilst picking up prizes including Critics' Circle, The Stage, Fringe First and two Off West End Theatre Awards, plus an Olivier Award nomination. The 2016 TV adaptation propelled Fleabag and Phoebe to worldwide fame, earning critical acclaim and further accolades including Writers' Guild, Royal Television Society and BAFTA Television Awards. A second series followed in 2019, winning an amazing six Emmy Awards (including Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series), along with a sold-out run of the original play in New York. This special edition of the play is released alongside Fleabag's first West End run at Wyndham's Theatre, London. It is introduced by Deborah Frances-White, stand-up comedian, writer and host of The Guilty Feminist podcast.

Vir die eerste keer ooit word al die dramas, hoorspele en die libretto van N.P. Van Wyk Louw in ’n versamelbundel uitgegee, met ’n voorwoord deur prof. Chris van der Merwe.

Van der Merwe sê: “Met die herlees van die dramas, hoorspele, koorspel en libretto van N. P. van Wyk Louw het dit my opgeval hoe dikwels hulle ʼn gesprek met mekaar voer. Soortgelyke temas word herhaaldelik uitgebeeld; die tekste sluit by mekaar aan, komplementeer mekaar, spreek mekaar soms teen. Dikwels kom die temas wat Louw in sy essays bespreek het of in sy poësie tot uiting gebring het, ook in die karakterisering en die intriges van die dramas na vore. Dit is opmerklik dat die denke van Louw nooit stagneer nie; steeds is daar tekens van ʼn voortgaande worsteling en vernuwing. Die indiwiduele dramas, in die groter konteks van sy oeuvre gelees, laat ʼn fassinerende skrywerspersoonlikheid na vore kom."

Remembering the lessons of Jan Karski, who risked his life to share the truth with the world Richly illustrated with stills from the black-and-white film adaptation of the acclaimed stage play, Remember This: The Lesson of Jan Karski tells the story of World War II hero, Holocaust witness, and Georgetown University professor Jan Karski. A messenger of truth, Karski risked his life to carry his harrowing reports of the Holocaust from war-torn Poland to the Allied nations and, ultimately, the Oval Office, only to be ignored and disbelieved. Despite the West's unwillingness to act, Karski continued to tell others about the atrocities he saw, and, after a period of silence, would do so for the remainder of his life. This play carries forward his legacy of bearing witness so that future generations might be inspired to follow his example and "shake the conscience of the world." Accompanying the text of the stage play in this volume are essays and conversations from leading diplomats, thinkers, artists, and writers who reckon with Karski's legacy, including Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, Ambassador Stuart Eizenstat, award-winning author Aminatta Forna, best-selling author Azar Nafisi, President Emeritus of Georgetown Leo J. O'Donovan, SJ, Ambassador Samantha Power, Ambassador Cynthia P. Schneider, historian Timothy Snyder, Academy Award (TM) nominated actor David Strathairn, and best-selling author Deborah Tannen.
