Impressive Shakespeare - Identity, Authority and the Imprint in Shakespearean Drama (Hardcover): Harry Newman Impressive Shakespeare - Identity, Authority and the Imprint in Shakespearean Drama (Hardcover)
Harry Newman
R4,582 Discovery Miles 45 820 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Impressive Shakespeare reassesses Shakespeare's relationship with "print culture" in light of his plays' engagement with the language and material culture of three interrelated "impressing technologies": wax sealing, coining, and typographic printing. It analyses the material and rhetorical forms through which drama was thought to "imprint" early modern audiences and readers with ideas, morals and memories, and-looking to our own cultural moment-shows how Shakespeare has been historically constructed as an "impressive" dramatist. Through material readings of four plays-Coriolanus, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Measure for Measure and The Winter's Tale-Harry Newman argues that Shakespeare deploys the imprint as a self-reflexive trope in order to advertise the value of his plays to audiences and readers, and that in turn the language of impression has shaped, and continues to shape, Shakespeare's critical afterlife. The book pushes the boundaries of what we understand by "print culture", and challenges assumptions about the emergence of concepts now central to Shakespeare's perceived canonical value, such as penetrating characterisation, poetic transformation, and literary fatherhood. Harry Newman's suggestive analysis of techniques and tropes of sealing, coining and printing produces a revelatory account of Shakespearean creative poetics. It's sustainedly startling in its rereading of familiar lines - but the chapter I found most original is on Measure for Measure: Newman is the first critic to attempt to interpret the play's authorial status as part of its own thematic and linguistic interrogation of illegitimacy and counterfeiting. He makes authorship matter in a literary and creative, rather than a quantitative and statistical, sense. Impressive Shakespeare is a brilliant scholarly debut. - Emma Smith Editor, Shakespeare Survey Professor of Shakespeare Studies, Hertford College, Oxford

Wake Up, I Love You (Paperback): Harry Newman Wake Up, I Love You (Paperback)
Harry Newman
R488 Discovery Miles 4 880 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Wake Up, I love you is a story of adventure, suspense and romance. Obadiah Grant, born in 1870, finds himself in Central Park, in New York City in 2000. His discovery of a new life, personal relationships and modern conveniences is both astounding and terrifying. Obie's ability to sketch everything he sees fascinates everyone, especially Anne, the 21st century look-alike of his 19th century sweetheart. Wake Up, I Love You is a page turner, that will leave you feeling warm and happy, as you follow Obie's adventures. Renee Beach Halliburton, senior editor at Prentiss Hall School Division; formerly with Simon and Shuster, writes: There is an easy flow to your narrative, that is wonderful. The character development is good. We certainly see your young protagonist grow. I do like the way you tell a story - it's like listening to a good storyteller. It's even easy to follow, and you have a nice way with dialogue, I notice the emphasis on certain values - self growth, caring, friendship - and of course there is a love story. Nice job.
