Literature & Literary StudiesMay 2018David and Bathsheba
By George Peele
by Mathew R. Martin, David Bevington
David and Bathsheba presents a modernised edition of George Peele's explosive biblical drama about the tangled lives, deadly liaisons, and twisted histories of Ancient Israel's royal family. Martin's critical edition is the first modern single-volume edition of the play since 1912 and opens up this unduly neglected gem of English Renaissance drama to student and scholar alike. The introduction examines such topics as the play's treatment of its biblical and poetic sources, its engagement with Elizabethan politics, and its forceful representations of religious fanaticism, genocide, and sexual violence. Its commentary notes clarify the text's meaning and staging, guide the reader through the play's dramatisation of the turbulent Davidic period of Ancient Israel's history, and place the play in its broader cultural and artistic milieu. Martin's edition aims to encourage new contemporary critical study of Peele's powerful and disturbing drama.

David, Donne and Thirsty Deer
Selected Essays of Anne Lake Prescott
by Anne Lake Prescott, Roger Kuin, William A. Oram
For nearly half a century Anne Lake Prescott has been a force and an inspiration in Renaissance studies. A force, because of her unique blend of learning and wit and an inspiration through her tireless encouragement of younger scholars and students. Her passion has always been the invisible bridge across the Channel: the complex of relations, literary and political, between Britain and France. The essays in this long-awaited collection range from Edmund Spenser to John Donne, from Clément Marot to Pierre de Ronsard. Prescott has a particular fondness for King David, who appears several times; and the reader will encounter chessmen, bishops, male lesbian voices and Roman whores. Always Prescott's immense erudition is accompanied by a sly and gentle wit that invites readers to share her amusement. Reading her is a joyful education.

The ArtsAugust 2014David Lean
by Melanie Williams, Brian McFarlane, Neil Sinyard
'A rule of mine is this', said William Goldman in 1983, 'there are always three hot directors and one of them is always David Lean.' One of the best known and most admired of British film makers, David Lean had a directorial career that spanned five decades and encompassed everything from the intimate black-and-white romance of Brief Encounter (1945) to the spectacular Technicolor epic of Lawrence of Arabia (1962). This book offers comprehensive coverage of every feature film directed by Lean, yielding new insights on the established classics of his career as well as its lesser-known treasures. Its analysis prioritises questions of gender and emphasises the often-overlooked but highly significant recurrence of female-centred narratives throughout Lean's career. Drawing extensively on archival historical materials while also presenting nuanced close readings of individual films, David Lean offers a fascinating and original account of the work of a remarkable British film maker. ;

November 1994Liebesgeschichten
by D. H. Lawrence, Heide Steiner
Optimismus, der dem Pessimismus Schopenhauers radikal entgegengesetzt ist, der Wille zum Leben, der sich im Geschlecht ausdrückt, ist Freude, und in ihm müssen Denken und Handeln ihren Ausgangspunkt haben, wenn sie nicht leerer Begriff, unfruchtbarer Mechanismus bleiben sollen . . .« Mit diesem, wie Simone de Beauvoir sagt, »Willen zum Leben« hat D. H. Lawrence auch jene Liebeserzählungen geschrieben, die den Romanen, seinem Hauptwerk, vorangegangen sind.

November 2023Caspar David Friedrich
Eine Biografie
by Boris von Brauchitsch
Ein kindliches Gemüt, gepaart mit tiefer Melancholie, ein etwas verschrobener Außenseiter, ein politisch unbequemer Geist: Caspar David Friedrich – geboren in Greifswald, bereits zu Lebzeiten umstritten, nach seinem Tod für ein halbes Jahrhundert vergessen, heute der bedeutendste Maler der deutschen Romantik. In seiner prägnanten Biografie erzählt Boris von Brauchitsch, wie Caspar David Friedrich die Malerei revolutionierte, entschieden mit dem Kunstverständnis seiner Zeitgenossen brach und mit seinen rätselhaften Bildern zu einem prägenden Vorläufer der Moderne wurde. Dabei zeigt er überraschende Zusammenhänge auf, nimmt die Wiederentdeckung und enthusiastische Rezeption des Malers in den Blick und macht anschaulich, warum die Faszination seines Werkes gerade heute – in Zeiten von Wachstumsskepsis und einer Rückbesinnung auf die Kräfte einer zusehends bedrohten Natur – eine besondere Wirkung entfaltet.

Literature & Literary StudiesJanuary 2014Court and civic society in the Burgundian Low Countries c.1420–1530
by Andrew Brown, Graeme Small
This volume is the first ever attempt to unite and translate some of the key texts which informed Johan Huizinga's famous study of the Burgundian court, The Waning of the Middle Ages, a work which has never gone out of print. It combines these texts with sources that Huizinga did not consider, those that illuminate the wider civic world that the Burgundian court inhabited and the dynamic interaction between court and city. Through these sources, and an introduction offering new perspectives on recent historiography, the book tests whether Huizinga's controversial vision of the period still stands. Covering subjects including ceremonial events, such as the spectacles and gargantuan banquets that made the Burgundian dukes the talk of Europe, the workings of the court, and jousting, archery and rhetoric competitions, the book will appeal to students of late medieval and early modern Europe and to those with wider interests in court culture, ritual and ceremony.
