This is a highly original study, which offers an innovative new
approach towards the study of early modern drama. This book
examines the work of the Elizabethan playwright, Robert Greene,
arguing that his plays are innovative in their use of spectacle.
This study's most striking feature is the use of the one-to-one
analogies between Greene's drama and modern cinema, in order to
explore the plays' stage effects. While recent Shakespearean
criticism interprets his drama through the lens of performance,
criticism of non-Shakespearean drama continues to disconnect the
plays from even the scarce performances of them today. This book
aims to bring the study of performance into the realm of
non-Shakespearean drama so that the plays of Shakespeare's
contemporaries might not descend further into obscurity. This
innovative study advocates the rejection of a purely text-based
interpretation of drama and emphasizes the powerful visual
dimension of the early modern stage.
This book focuses on the trans-Meiji Restoration story of the
ideological transformation that made modern capitalism possible in
Japan. At the end of the Tokugawa era, there was a shift away from
traditionally hostile Confucian views of commercial growth toward
economic development as the main source of national wealth, power
and prestige. To illustrate this transformation, the book looks at
four key architects of Meiji Japan's capitalist institutions: Okubo
Toshimichi, Godai Tomoatsu, Matsukata Masayoshi and Maeda Masana.
