I have also long wanted to thank my academic teacher, Professor Klaus Peter Jochum, who had already retired at the time I was working on this book and still gave generously of his time and expertise. His patience and critical intelligence have been invaluable. Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to Iris Wagner, who proofread the manuscript at very short notice and removed a number of mistakes. vi 1 The Body in the Library and the Body on Stage Many of the most popular English stage plays of the last century were con- cerned with crime, most frequently murder, and its detection. The present study will examine these plays, which in some ways are so like detective fiction and in other respects are very different. The title phrase of this chap- ter, “the body in the library and the body on stage” plays on the contrast between the popular image of a dead body found in the midst of “fossil- ized,” dead, written language and theatrical performance in which living bodies utter living, spoken language. Twentieth- century English detective fiction created a massive output of stories revolving around the discovery of a dead body and the reconstruction of how that body came to be a dead body. Since drama is concerned with the actions of living bodies one might assume that no comparable genre has evolved in the theatre. This is far from the case. The term used for this kind of play in this study will be “crime play,” since this is a fairly neutral and comprehensive term which does not imply preconceived ideas about the structure or focus of these plays.1 “Crime play” is defined as a play revolving around a crime and its detection. The crime must be the central topic of the play, which means that, for instance, plays on family conflicts that happen to escalate into violence will not be consid- ered unless the focus is on the illegality of such violence. “Crime” is defined according to the textbooks on criminal law. The definition that states the essential aspects most clearly seems to be the one formulated by the House of Lords in 1957 (Board of Trade v. Owen): “an unlawful act or default which is an offence against the public and renders the person guilty of the act liable to legal punishment”.2 The term “unlawful act” already contains sev- eral important aspects. “Unlawful” stresses the principle of legality: before an action can be a crime, there must be a law that prohibits it. “Act” refers to the legal principle of “actus reus,” meaning a willed, voluntary act com- mitted in “mens rea,” a wrongful state of mind, for instance intent – the classic “malice aforethought,” – in the case of murder. Besides, the term “unlawful act” draws attention to the difference between legal and moral 1 2 The English Crime Play in the Twentieth Century wrong. A traffic violation may be illegal, though not immoral, while lying or adultery may be immoral but not illegal unless defined as such by the laws of the country. The fact that a crime is considered “an offence against the public” and “liable to legal punishment” differentiates criminal law from civil law. In civil law, a specific person has been offended and the remedy for such an offence is not punishment but compensation. As the above definition of “crime” suggests, this study will not be primar- ily concerned with moral wrong, with questions of guilt, responsibility – or Sin – but largely with the aspect of illegality and the threat of punishment resulting from it.

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

    “where a good crime C r i m e can be had by all” c h r o n i c l e Issue #242 MArch 2006 AUTHOR OF THE MONTH Skeleton Man: A Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee novel Leaphorn comes out of retirement to help investigate what seems to be a trading post robbery. The simple kid nailed for the crime is related to a former colleague. Proving the kid’s innocence requires finding the remains of one of 172 people whose bodies were scattered over the Grand Canyon in an epic airline disaster 50 years ago. One of those passengers, a diamond dealer, had an attaché case containing a fortune in diamonds handcuffed to his wrist. Now his daughter is also seeking his body, and so is a most unpleasant fellow who is willing to kill to make sure she doesn’t succeed. These two tense tales collide deep in the canyon at the place where an old man died trying to build a cult-reviving reverence for the Hopi guardian of the Underworld. It is a race to the finish in a thunderous monsoon storm to see who will be brought to justice and who will finally unearth the Skeleton Man (Pb 19.95). Other titles in this excellent series starring two Navajo policemen include: Blessing Way, Coyote Waits (16.95), Dance Hall of the Dead (19.95), Dark Wind, The Fallen Man, Finding Moon, The Fly on the Wall, The Ghostway, Hunting Badger, Listening Woman, People of Darkness, Scared Clowns, The Sinister Pig, Skinwalkers, Talking God, A Thief of Time and The Wailing Wind (all 18.95 unless otherwise indicated).

We also have a special event planned on Saturday 9th at the beautiful Savoy Cinema, just around the corner at Heaton Moor. The Savoy is very much like ‘The Bijou’ from The Smallest Show on Earth, (without all the problems!), so we decided to hold a proper Saturday Morning Pictures Show on Saturday 9th October 2021 from 9am-12pm – bring your pop guns and wear your badges! There will be a special guest and a separate Film Quiz with Afternoon Tea in the afternoon from 1-4pm. It will be a smaller event than The Plaza on the Sunday so get your tickets quick! There’s not many seats available at The Savoy. If you have specific seating requests for ANY EVENT, then call us to book your tickets rather than online or on the order form. When booked we will send you a fact sheet on parking and hotels etc. Exciting times – we’ve got some great guests lined up for this year! For those of you who have tickets already from last year – we will post out your new packs as soon as we can. More details on pages 26-28. At last we can all have a get together to look forward to! This month there’s something very special for Gracie Fields fans, a limited edition necklace with her autograph, and TWO DVDs for just £20.
