  • The Tragedy of Hamlet
    THE TRAGEDY OF HAMLET THE WORKS OF SHAKESPEARE THE TRAGEDY OF HAMLET EDITED BY EDWARD DOWDEN n METHUEN AND CO. 36 ESSEX STREET: STRAND LONDON 1899 9 5 7 7 95 —— CONTENTS PAGE Introduction ix The Tragedy of Hamlet i Appendix I. The "Travelling" of the Players. 229 Appendix II.— Some Passages from the Quarto of 1603 231 Appendix III. Addenda 235 INTRODUCTION This edition of Hamlet aims in the first place at giving a trustworthy text. Secondly, it attempts to exhibit the variations from that text which are found in the primary sources—the Quarto of 1604 and the Folio of 1623 — in so far as those variations are of importance towards the ascertainment of the text. Every variation is not recorded, but I have chosen to err on the side of excess rather than on that of defect. Readings from the Quarto of 1603 are occa- sionally given, and also from the later Quartos and Folios, but to record such readings is not a part of the design of this edition. 1 The letter Q means Quarto 604 ; F means Folio 1623. The dates of the later Quartos are as follows: —Q 3, 1605 161 1 undated 6, For ; Q 4, ; Q 5, ; Q 1637. my few references to these later Quartos I have trusted the Cambridge Shakespeare and Furness's edition of Hamlet. Thirdly, it gives explanatory notes. Here it is inevitable that my task should in the main be that of selection and condensation. But, gleaning after the gleaners, I have perhaps brought together a slender sheaf.

    For Exhibitors Screendollars August 3, 2020 About Films, the Film Industry No. 128 Newsletter and Cinema Advertising God speed and fond remembrances to British filmmaker Alan Parker, who died on Friday at the age of 76. Parker made 15 features over his 25-year career from the mid-1970s through the early-2000’s. He demonstrated unmatched range in style and subject matter in his films, spanning a G-rated musical Bugsy Malone (1976) featuring an all children’s cast to the nearly X-rated voodoo horror film Angel Heart (1987) starring Mickey Rourke and Robert DeNiro. The thread throughout Parker’s films was that they were riveting, memorable and enjoyable creations. Alan Parker (1944 - 2020) Midnight Express Fame Angel Heart Mississippi Burning The Commitments Angela’s Ashes (1978) (1980) (1987) (1988) (1991) (1999) “People said, ‘You must have been so brave!’. I said, ‘No, just stupid’” - Alan Parker, on working with a large cast of children actors in Bugsy Malone (1976) Notable Industry News and Commentary (7/27-8/2) Lonely Daze: The Ties that Unwind (NY Times) This interesting analysis by Jason Zinoman of the NY Times explains why horror films are the perfect accompaniment to the COVID-19 pandemic.
