My son is dead and sitting on the throne. 1605. Orthodox Russia
stands alone, defiant against the Roman Catholic and Protestant
West. The Kremlin has suppressed all opposition and keeps a
ruthless grip on power with the support of the church and an appeal
to nationalist sentiment. In Poland, a formidable young opponent
appears: Dmitry. At his back a Polish army fuelled by fear of the
Russian threat marches on Moscow. But is he who he thinks he is? An
explosive new version of the great German writer Schiller's last,
unfinished play - resurrected in the unique, pulsating dramatic
verse of Peter Oswald, which premiered in the original production
directed by Tim Supple. This edition was published to coincide with
the world premiere at Marylebone Theatre in London, in September
2022.
This version was created by Peter Oswald, with the help of the
renowned trumpeter Martin Holland.
The ancient Hindu epic poem "The Ramayana" tells the journey of
Rama, an incarnation of God, to set free his wife Sita from the
demon Ravana. This divine story, here set forth in dramatic form,
encapsulates the rise of humanity from animal to God.

Don Carlos and Mary Stuart, two of German literature's greatest
dramas, deal with the timeless issues of power, freedom, and
justice. Dating from 1787 and 1800 respectively, one play was
written before the French Revolution, the other in its aftermath.
Both dramatize periods of crisis in sixteenth-century Europe, and
in doing so reflect Schiller's passionate engagement with the great
themes of his own age - justice, power, freedom of conscience,
legitimacy of government. A youthful work, Don Carlos shows the
victory of the forces of reaction over the representatives of a new
age. Mary Stuart shows the struggle of the Scottish queen in her
last days of her life, not only for her freedom, but also for peace
with her conscience, and that of her English rival, Elizabeth I,
with the challenge of ruling justly. A vivid imaginative experience
when read, these plays, with their starkly contrasting characters
and thrilling confrontations, also demonstrate Schiller's brilliant
stagecraft. These new translations into blank verse are accurate,
elegant, and playable. The introduction, notes, and chronology set
the plays in their cultural and intellectual background, while a
family tree explains the historical relationship bewteen Don Carlos
and Mary Stuart. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford
World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature
from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's
commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a
wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions
by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text,
up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
These notes reflect, to a great part, the present research
interests of the author but were influenced by the ideas and the
work of many colleagues. They are based on lectures given by the
author at the Institutes of Mathematics and Informatics at the
Technical U niversity of Munich during February /March 1993. I wish
to warmly thank ehr. Zenger and R. Hoppe for their generous support
and the many discussions I had with them and their younger
colleagues during the last year. Part of the results contained in
section 4 is the output of these discussions and joint work with M.
Griebel. There are many other mathematicians who encouraged me (or
personally or by their mathematical work) to step into the field of
multilevel methods. I want to acknowledge the support I received
from W. Dahmen, R. A. DeVore, P. Deufl hard, W. Hackbusch, H. Trieb
el, O. Widlund, H. Yserentant and many others. On the other hand, I
should apologize for not mentioning many interesting re search
results and names standing for recent developments in the fields
which are the subject of these notes. Finally, I want to thank my
family, my wife Olga and my daughters Evelyn and Annelie, for their
everyday patience and support."

Schiller's play of 1800 pits Mary Queen of Scots against her rival
Elizabeth of England. The meeting never happened, but Goethe
claimed 'It will be good to see those whores alongside each other.'
Schiller's Mary redeems her youthful crimes through an ordeal that
lifts her into the realms of spiritual serenity, while Elizabeth
descends deeper into rage, revenge and deception. Peter Oswald's
version, mixing poetry and prose, opened at the Donmar Warehouse in
London's West End in July 2005.

pentameters for living actors."An elaborate, philosophically
nuanced and often funny tale of love" (Independent)

A new version of the classic French romantic comedy from Peter
Oswald. Cursed with the looks of a clown, he weaves his secret
longing into love letters of exquisite beauty that he will never
dare to send. All he needs is a perfect nose to match his perfect
prose. The handsome Christian has also fallen for Roxane - but
while he looks like a god, he sounds like a fool. Sacrificing
physical love for fantasy, Cyrano hands his words of love to
Christian to speak for them both. Will Roxane fall for the
'perfect' man? Can Cyrano exist with only half her heart? Is true
love more than skin deep?
