  • The Cambridge Companion to Christopher Marlowe Edited by Patrick Cheney Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 0521527341 - The Cambridge Companion to Christopher Marlowe Edited by Patrick Cheney Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Companion to Christopher Marlowe The Cambridge Companion to Christopher Marlowe provides a full introduc- tion to one of the great pioneers of both the Elizabethan stage and modern English poetry. It recalls that Marlowe was an inventor of the English history play (Edward II) and of Ovidian narrative verse (Hero and Leander), as well as being author of such masterpieces of tragedy and lyric as Doctor Faustus and ‘The Passionate Shepherd to His Love’. Seventeen leading scholars provide accessible and authoritative chapters on Marlowe’s life, texts, style, politics, religion, and classicism. The volume also considers his literary and patronage relationships and his representations of sexuality and gender and of geography and identity; his presence in modern film and theatre; and finally his influence on subsequent writers. The Companion includes a chronology of Marlowe’s life, a note on reference works, and a reading list for each chapter. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 0521527341 - The Cambridge Companion to Christopher Marlowe Edited by Patrick Cheney Frontmatter More information Portrait (putative) of Christopher Marlowe.

  • Othello Has Married Desdemona in Secret. Iago Has a Vendetta to Attend To
    12th September 2019 Dear Parent / Guardian OTHELLO, CAMBRIDGE ARTS THEATRE THURSDAY 30th JANUARY 2020 Our A-Level English Team are delighted to be offering your son/daughter the opportunity to attend a theatre production of Shakespeare’s Othello at The Cambridge Arts Theatre on Thursday 30th January 2020. Othello has married Desdemona in secret. Iago has a vendetta to attend to. Before long, all three are caught in a web of lies and deceit that threatens to destroy them and everyone they love. The Marlowe Society (“a powerhouse of theatrical expertise” - Ian McKellen) returns to Cambridge Arts Theatre after its string of recent successful productions including Much Ado About Nothing and Romeo and Juliet. Cambridge University’s leading dramatic institution, the Marlowe Society, has launched the careers of some of Britain’s greatest actors including Derek Jacobi, Simon Russell Beale, Emma Thompson and Rachel Weisz. As part of the trip, we have also booked a pre-show talk, starting at 6:30pm at the theatre. This will also be of great benefit to our students, helping them to understand the process by which a play is translated from page to stage. Students will need to meet in the bus park at Suffolk One promptly at 12:30pm ready for departure from college at 12.45pm. We will travel to Cambridge via coach and arrive at the theatre in time to allow students the opportunity to go off in small groups to explore the city, do some shopping and get an early tea. They may therefore wish to bring some spending money with them.

  • Selected Publications in Shakespeare Studies
    Selected Publications in Shakespeare Studies Continisio, Tommaso and Del Villano, Bianca, eds, Queens on Stage: Female Sovereignty, Power and Sexuality in Early Modern English Theatre, Canterano, Aracne, 2018, 201 pp. One of the many strengths of this volume can be found in its very title. Rather than using the category of “queenship”, or an Elizabeth I-centred “Staging the Queen”, the editors opt for the plural “Queens”, thus signalling the collection’s praiseworthy emphasis on the multiple intricacies and complex variety of its subject matter. The contributors’ essays themselves live up to both the title and subtitle, exploring from diverse perspectives the shifting, often ambiguous, and sometimes contradictory dynamics of power and sexuality involving early modern English theatrical queens both real and fictional. While they reach a general consensus that the gender politics of a male-privileging patriarchal society placed extraordinary pressures and limitations on female sovereigns, the authors convincingly demonstrate that the staging of charismatic, eloquent, and self-assertive queens could follow a wide range of paths, disallowing any single, dominant cultural or aesthetic interpretation, and opening up instead multiple possibilities for future research and analysis. In keeping with this same laudable favouring of plurality, the collection does not – as is too often the case – give precedence to Shakespeare, but places studies of his plays amidst ones focusing on Marlowe, Middleton, Jonson, and others. The title also aptly evokes the well-known statement of Queen Elizabeth I that “we princes, I tell you, are set on stages in the sight and view of all the world duly observed” (p.
