        Interweaving myths in Shakespeare and his contemporaries

        by Janice Valls-Russell, Agnès Lafont, Charlotte Coffin

        This volume proposes new insights into the uses of classical mythology by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, focusing on interweaving processes in early modern appropriations of myth. Its 11 essays show how early modern writing intertwines diverse myths and plays with variant versions of individual myths that derive from multiple classical sources, as well as medieval, Tudor and early modern retellings and translations. Works discussed include poems and plays by William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and others. Essays concentrate on specific plays including The Merchant of Venice and Dido Queen of Carthage, tracing interactions between myths, chronicles, the Bible and contemporary genres. Mythological figures are considered to demonstrate how the weaving together of sources deconstructs gendered representations. New meanings emerge from these readings, which open up methodological perspectives on multi-textuality, artistic appropriation and cultural hybridity.

        Vielleicht Nie

        Maybe Never Gabriella, Joana and Karla share a flat. To finance their studies, they all work at a catering company. And the three not only realize their professional dreams, but also find the love of their lives. Since her older sister died in a fatal car accident, Joana does everything for a perfect life. She tries to follow her sister’s dream, out of guilt. In her life everything seems to be perfect: nice (but boring) boyfriend, successful biochemistry studies, a job at the catering company, affordable flat-sharing and wonderful friends. But everything changes when Kilian, the brother of her best friend Karla, shows up in Munich again. Kilian doesn’t fit into Joana‘s perfectly planned future at all. But he makes her feel what she has long supressed – the real Joana, who actually wanted to become a make-up artist. Ironically, since she has been wearing a mask herself since the death of her sister.   • Feel-good page turner for New Adults• Original plots in heartfelt narrations, leaving out familiar clichés• Girl power: 3 self-confident protagonists and their strong friendship• Stories about first steps towards independence: Career choices, fear of the future, parental pressure, exploring roots to find your place

        William Holman Hunt

        Painter, painting, paint

        by Carol Jacobi

        This is a fundamental reassessment of the work of William Holman Hunt, and the first critical text to reproduce his pictures in colour and set him on an international stage. Introducing a new critique of the autobiography and drawing on hundreds of private letters, drawings and paintings, the author depicts a radical man of his times, deeply troubled by the pivotal concerns of the materialist age - the isolation of the individual, the collapse of faith and the status of art - and seeking solutions through a systematic testing of the extremes of painting. A close examination of the pictures, including neglected later works, combined with recent scientific research relate the physical act of painting, and the paint, back to the body of the artist. Lavishly illustrated and engagingly written, this book answers the longstanding lack of any monograph on Hunt and will make compelling reading for undergraduate and graduate students of History of Art, Victorian Studies, English Literature and Religious Studies, as well as curators, conservators and the artist's many admirers. ;
