This newly commissioned series of essays by leading scholars is the
first volume to offer both an overview of the field and also
current emerging critical views on the history, form, and influence
of English melodrama. Authoritative voices provide an introduction
to melodrama's early formal features such as tableaux and music,
and trace the development of the genre in the nineteenth century
through the texts and performances of its various sub-genres, the
theatres within which the plays were performed, and the audiences
who watched them. The historical contexts of melodrama are
considered through essays on topics including contemporary
politics, class, gender, race, and empire. And the extensive
influences of melodrama are demonstrated through a wide-ranging
assessment of its ongoing and sometimes unexpected expressions - in
psychoanalysis, in other art forms (the novel, film, television,
musical theatre), and in popular culture generally - from the
nineteenth to the twenty-first century.

Long before the satirical comedy of "The Daily Show" and "The
Colbert Report," the comic operas of W. S. Gilbert and Arthur
Sullivan were the hottest send-ups of the day's political and
cultural obsessions. Gilbert and Sullivan's productions always rose
to the level of social commentary, despite being impertinent,
absurd, or inane. Some viewers may take them straight, but what
looks like sexism or stereotype was actually a clever strategy of
critique. Parody was a powerful weapon in the culture wars of
late-nineteenth-century England, and with defiantly in-your-face
sophistication, Gilbert and Sullivan proved that popular culture
can be intellectually as well as politically challenging.
Carolyn Williams underscores Gilbert and Sullivan's creative and
acute understanding of cultural formations. Her unique perspective
shows how anxiety drives the troubled mind in the Lord Chancellor's
"Nightmare Song" in "Iolanthe" and is vividly realized in the
sexual and economic phrasing of the song's patter lyrics. The
modern body appears automated and performative in the "Junction
Song" in "Thespis," anticipating Charlie Chaplin's factory worker
in "Modern Times." Williams also illuminates the use of magic in
"The Sorcerer," the parody of nautical melodrama in "H.M.S.
Pinafore," the ridicule of Victorian aesthetic and idyllic poetry
in "Patience," the autoethnography of "The Mikado," the role of
gender in "Trial by Jury," and the theme of illegitimacy in "The
Pirates of Penzance." With her provocative reinterpretation of
these artists and their work, Williams recasts our understanding of
creativity in the late nineteenth century.

Exploring the intricacy and complexity of Walter Pater's prose,
Transfigured World challenges traditional approaches to Pater and
shows precise ways in which the form of his prose expresses its
content. Carolyn Williams asserts that Pater's aestheticism and his
historicism should be understood as dialectically interrelated
critical strategies, inextricable from each other in practice.
Williams discusses the explicit and embedded narratives that play a
crucial role in Pater's aesthetic criticism and examines the
figures that compose these narratives, including rhetorical tropes,
structures of argument such as genealogy, and historical or
fictional personae.
Dairy products come from a mammal's milk. People around the world
enjoy dairy. It has important nutrients. But some of the nutrients
can be harmful in large amounts. And some people's bodies cannot
tolerate dairy. Your Body on Dairy uncovers the nutritional
benefits of dairy, how it interacts with the body, and how to
include it as part of a balanced diet. Easy-to-read text, vivid
images, and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this
subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a
glossary, additional resources, and an index. Aligned to Common
Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Core Library is
an imprint of Abdo Publishing, a division of ABDO.
