David Mark Chairman, FEATS 2010 - 3 - Welcome to Bad Homburg! We all love theatre; it is removed from, yet still reflects real life. Witnessing love and passion, problems and tragedy encourages us to look at life from a different perspective. We might laugh, or pause to reflect, and sometimes even find answers to frequently asked questions. Oscar Wilde said, “The stage is not merely the meeting place of all the arts, but is also the return of art to life.” Bad Homburg already has a wonderfully varied theatre scene, which will be further enhanced over the next few days – by stagecraft in English. We are delighted to welcome FEATS 2010 – the best English-language theatre festival in continental Europe – to our town. Culture in Bad Homburg has had an international flavour ever since we first gained world renown as a spa back in the mid-nineteenth century, and we continue to maintain this tradition – in art, on stage and in everyday life. Bad Homburg is most certainly a European town, as witnessed by the close relationships we have with our nine twinned towns. I would like to extend a warm welcome to Bad Homburg to all involved in FEATS 2010. I wish you an exciting competition and successful performances. Sincere thanks are due to the organisers and sponsors, whose efforts have ensured a high-quality cultural event. And lastly, I hope that you, the audience, will enjoy some evenings of unforgettable theatre. So now, raise the curtain and let the show commence!

She has worked in provincial theatre as an award-winning actor and director, and is currently Headteacher of Hertswood, a Specialist Arts College. She successfully combines a busy academic life with a stimulating theatrical one. In 1998, she was awarded an MA in Theatre and Performance Studies and at the time was running her own highly inventive theatre company – Shattered Windscreen. Her theatrical exploits have taken her as far afield as the Edinburgh Fringe Festival as well as regular appearances at the famous cliffside Minack Theatre in Cornwall. Jan was appointed as a GoDA adjudicator in 2001: her past festival experiences have included Barnet, Cambridge, Felixstowe, Guernsey, Havering, Isle of Man, Sawston, Spelthorne & Runnymede,Thurrock, Wakefield, Waltham Forest and the Woking Drama Festivals, and she is looking forward very much to her first visit to a FEATS festival, here in Bad Homburg. The Guild of Drama Adjudicators The Guild of Drama Adjudicators, GoDA, is the internationally recognised body for the adjudication of all forms of theatre. It was founded in 1947 to improve the standards of adjudication of amateur drama by establishing recognised principles of practice to which its members could be relied upon to adhere. Its members have extensive experience of amateur and professional theatre and are bound by a strict rule of professional etiquette. The objectives of the Guild are: • To supply qualified adjudicators to all organisations promoting amateur drama. • To enable its members to work unfettered towards the objectives of the Guild. • To provide opportunities for the discussion of the problems of adjudication and tuition either by schools, conferences, or by other means. You can find out more about GoDA on www.amdram.co.uk/goda - 6 - Tagora, Strasbourg Thursday Late Entry by David Tristram Directed by Maggie Jones Cast Sara: Elena Malagoni Mike: Richard Thayer Production team Stage Manager: Bernard Faulkner Asst.

  • Recent Studies of Book Illustration and Engraving, Including Cartography, 1985–2016 This Bibliography Surveys Scholarship Publ
    Recent Studies of Book Illustration and Engraving, including Cartography, 1985–2016 This bibliography surveys scholarship published between 1985–2016 on engraving, including illustrations, prints, and emblems, as well as cartography, during the long eighteenth century (roughly 1650–1820). The focus is on Europe and the Americas, but some of Asian developments, particularly Japanese, have been included. The bibliography is most inclusive for the years 1990-2014, in consequence of my compiling studies from those years for Section 1— "Printing and Bibliographical Studies"—of the ECCB: The Eighteenth-Century Current Bibliography. A shorter version of this list without cartographic materials appeared in The East- Central Intelligencer, n.s. 15, no. 1 (January 2001), 58-77. Then an intermediate version appeared at Kevin Berland's C18-L website. During 2015–17, I expanded the list four times, with it now reaching 236 pages in typescript. The bibliography includes cartography (particularly the printed products of map-making), but excellent annual surveys of cartographic publications have been compiled by Francis Herbert, Wouter Bracke, and Nick Millea for Imago Mundi (entered under their names below). It lists dissertations and reviews for books. Focused on printed sources, it fails to note some valuable electronic sources, such as Juliette Sodt's website on illustration in botanical books, <www. library.wwu.edu/ref/subjguides/BOTILL.htm>, and many exhibition catalogues posted on the web by museums (only some recent exhibitions are included). Also, some studies in my bibliography of children’s literature at BibSite, as those on chapbooks, could also have been placed into this bibliography on engraving but were not.

  • Labyrinth of Digressions Tristram Shandy As Perceived and Influenced by Sterne’S Early Imitators
    Labyrinth of Digressions Tristram Shandy as Perceived and Influenced by Sterne’s Early Imitators COSTERUS NEW SERIES 172 Series Editors: C.C. Barfoot, Theo D’haen and Erik Kooper Labyrinth of Digressions Tristram Shandy as Perceived and Influenced by Sterne’s Early Imitators René Bosch Authorized translation by Piet Verhoeff Amsterdam-New York, NY 2007 For Susanne, who can laugh and cry at the same time, and for our sons Tobias and Amos. The publication costs of this book were partly covered by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO). Cover design: Aart Jan Bergshoeff The paper on which this book is printed meets the requirements of “ISO 9706:1994, Information and documentation - Paper for documents - Requirements for permanence”. ISBN: 978-90-420-2291-1 ©Editions Rodopi B.V., Amsterdam - New York, NY 2007 Printed in the Netherlands Acknowledgements An earlier version of this book appeared in Dutch in the Autumn of 1998. Although at that time some chapters had already been written in English, personal circumstances forced me to finish the book in a hurry, which made me decide to take the easy option of expressing myself in my mother tongue. I intended to create an English edition soon afterwards, but when financial support was unexpectedly withdrawn, that plan soon became less realistic. New uncertainties and challenges came in the way. In the years that followed I might have lost faith in the project altogether, if it had not been for Piet Verhoeff. Not only did Piet volunteer to translate the book and assist me with the English of the parts that had to be rewritten, but he expressed his confidence in the relevance of this study for English literary history and the history of Ideas, pressed me to take the criticism of editors seriously and never forsook his side of what I have come to think of as a warm friendship.

    1 Fiction in the Hampshire Chronicle, a provincial newspaper, from 1772 to 1829 ©Ruth Facer, published by Chawton House Library, 2010 Guide to reading this resource: The following is a list of all works of fiction appearing in the Hampshire Chronicle from 1772, when the newspaper was started, to 1829. Some works of non-fiction are also included in order to give a general impression of the wider reading of the period. A few indications as to historical background, taken from the newspaper text, are also included. Because names of authors are sometimes omitted, titles were inaccurate, editions are not indicated where relevant, and because books were often advertised before publication, making the date unreliable, I have referenced each work of fiction. Publication was in London unless otherwise indicated. Novels are highlighted in bold print and non-fiction titles, magazine titles and headings of articles in italics. Some advertisements and publishers’ statements to the public are given as examples. I have made a few comments, paraphrases, and elucidations in the text which I hope will be obvious to the reader. Repeat advertisements are not always included.
