    "Infidelity" as an "Act of Love": Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) as a Rewrite of August Strindberg's Miss Julie (1888). مسـرحيــة After Miss Julie للكاتب البريطاني باتريك ماربر كإعادة إبداع لمسرحية Miss Julie للكاتب السويدي أوجست ستريندبرج Dr. Reda Shehata associate professor Department of English - Zagazig University د. رضا شحاته أستاذ مساعد بقسم اللغة اﻹنجليزية كلية اﻵداب - جامعة الزقازيق "Infidelity" as an "Act of Love" Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) "Infidelity" as an "Act of Love": Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) as a Rewrite of August Strindberg's Miss Julie (1888). Abstract Depending on Linda Hutcheon's notion of adaptation as "a creative and interpretative act of appropriation" and David Lane's concept of the updated "context of the story world in which the characters are placed," this paper undertakes a critical examination of Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) as a creative rewrite of August Strindberg's Miss Julie (1888). The play appears to be both a faithful adaptation and appropriation of its model, reflecting "matches" for certain features of it and "mismatches" for others. So in spite of Marber's different language, his adjustment of the "temporal and spatial dimensions" of the original, and his several additions and omissions, he retains the same theme, characters, and—to a considerable extent, plot. To some extent, he manages to stick to his master's brand of Naturalism by retaining the special form of conflict upon which the action is based. In addition to its depiction of the failure of post-war class system, it shows strong relevancy to the spirit of the 1990s, both in its implicit critique of some aspects of feminism (especially its call for gender equality) and its bold address of the masculine concerns of that period.

Theatrical and literary importation of role models into Portugal. ABSTRACT This study intends to characterize the presence of August Strindberg’s dramaturgy in Portugal, through reception theory of Fröken Julie. It outlines the dynamics of Portuguese theatrical creation since the play was performed in 1960 until its last register on national stage, in 2011. It is also relevant to consider the play writing concerning its cultural context, as well as the impact it has had in Europe and in the USA. According to the specific nature of this master piece, some other transpositions were also considered in relevant approach. Analysing a specific set of Portuguese we were lead to conclusions concerning the ways of staging and creating drama in Portugal through direct or indirect importation of theatrical and literary models, distinguishing the cultural features of texts and the fact that source and target domains are both dependent, in a generic-level, on particular and specific elements.

  • The Cambridge Companion to August Strindberg Edited by Michael Robinson Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-60852-7 - The Cambridge Companion to August Strindberg Edited by Michael Robinson Frontmatter More information the cambridge companion to august strindberg August Strindberg is one of the most enduring of nineteenth-century dramatists, and is also an internationally recognized novelist, autobiographer and painter. This Companion presents contributions by leading international scholars on different aspects of Strindberg’s highly colourful life and work. The essays focus primarily on his most celebrated plays; these include the naturalist dramas, The Father and Miss Julie; the experimental dramas with which he created a true modernist theatre – To Damascus and A Dream Play; and the Chamber Plays of 1908 which, like so much of his work, exerted a powerful influence on later twentieth-century drama. His plays are contextualized for what they contribute both to the history of drama and developments in theatre practice, and other essays clarify the enormous importance to these dramas of his other work, most notably the autobiographical novel Inferno, and his lifelong interest in science, the occult, sexual politics and the visual arts. michael robinson is Professor Emeritus of Drama and Scandinavian Studies at the University of East Anglia, Norwich. He is the author of Strindberg and Autobiography (1986) and Studies in Strindberg (1998), and has translated a two-volume selection of Strindberg’s letters (1992), a collection of his essays (1996) and five of the plays (1998). He has edited five volumes of essays on Strindberg and Ibsen, and is also the General Editor of the Cambridge Plays in Production series. His three-volume International Annotated Bibliography of Strindberg Studies was published by the MHRA in 2008.

  • All Throughout Time Money Has Played a Central Part in the Lives of People
    All throughout time money has played a central part in the lives of people. Money is the commodity that sustains people, but also has the power to kill as well. This is clearly evident in the plays “A Dolls House” by Henrik Ibsen and “Miss Julie” by August Strindberg even though both plays were written by different authors and had no acquaintances with each other. In both plays even though money is portrayed in the same manner, but by analysis of the speech of the different characters one can see that Nora Helmer, the protagonist’s actions differ considerable from Jean, who is the antagonist even when their conducts are alike. One of the first things that one sees in both plays is the means both the major characters use to get the money. In Doll’s House, Nora has to lie to her husband about getting money as seen by her quote “and he was so ill, there was never any need to tell him (Ibsen 12).” When Nora states that she has borrowed money without Torvald knowing about it, her sentence structure clearly shows this. There as an increasing amount of repetition in her speech when she said “never (Ibsen 12)” three times. This repetition may be caused by her being nervous and also uncomfortable with it. On the other hand Jean in “Miss Julie” also uses mischievous means to get money from Miss Julie. In order to do this he has to lie and he does this feat quite comfortably when he states “I remember it was dangerous to sleep under an elder bush.

  • After Miss Julie Project Is Offered As an Addendum to Inga-Stina Ewbank’S Reflections on the Treception of Strindberg in England
    Michael Robinson Maid in England: Anglicizing Miss Julie his brief presentation of the BBC After Miss Julie project is offered as an addendum to Inga-Stina Ewbank’s reflections on the Treception of Strindberg in England. My own discussion of this topic and Strindberg’s failure to find either an adequate translator early on in the century (many of the first Strindberg translations were made from Emil Schering’s German edition rather than from the original Swedish) or an intermediary who could introduce him in England as Bernard Shaw did Ibsen are to be found in the introduction to my recent volume of Studies in Strindberg (Norwich: Norvik Press, 1998) and (in Swedish) in Björn Meidal, ed., August Strindberg och hans översättare (Stockholm, 1995). No acting tradition has emerged for the performance of Strindberg in England as it has for Ibsen and Chekhov, and the sheer range and variety of his dramatic production has opened the way to accusations of a lack of artistic control in his writing, in contrast to what is seen as the admirably consistent approach to playwriting of his Norwegian and Russian contemporaries. The one practitioner who might have introduced Strindberg to England, in an informed way at least on paper, was of course Edward Gordon Craig, but Strindberg had insulted him when Craig sought him out in Stockholm in 1906, and thus, like so many other opportunities in the anglicizing of Strindberg, this, too, was stillborn. Few of the prose works are known there and his other work (e.g. as a painter) remains to be discovered; indeed, even today, Strindberg has got little further in England beyond the somewhat unwelcoming port of Gravesend, where © TijdSchrift voor Skandinavistiek vol.
