    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86240-0 - Macbeth, Second Edition William Shakespeare Frontmatter More information THE NEW CAMBRIDGE SHAKESPEARE general editor: Brian Gibbons, University of M¨unster associate general editor: A. R. Braunmuller, University of California, Los Angeles From the publication of the first volumes in 1984 the General Editor of the New Cambridge Shakespeare was Philip Brockbank and the Associate General Editors were Brian Gibbons and Robin Hood. From 1990 to 1994 the General Editor was Brian Gibbons and the Associate General Editors were A. R. Braunmuller and Robin Hood. MACBETH This is the most extensively annotated edition of Macbeth currently available, offering a thor- ough reconsideration of one of Shakespeare’s most popular plays. A full and accessible updated introduction studies the immediate theatrical and political contexts of Macbeth’s composition, especially the Gunpowder Plot and the contemporary account of an early performance at the Globe. It treats such issues as whether the Witches compel Macbeth to murder; whether Lady Macbeth is herself in some sense a witch; whether Banquo is Macbeth’s accomplice in crime; and what criticism is levelled against Macduff. Several possible new sources are suggested, and the presence of Thomas Middleton’s writing in the play is proposed. An extensive, well-illustrated account of the play in perfomance examines several cinematic versions, such as those by Kurosawa and Roman Polanski, and a brand-new introductory section on recent performances and adap- tations brings the edition completely up to date. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86240-0 - Macbeth, Second Edition William Shakespeare Frontmatter More information THE NEW CAMBRIDGE SHAKESPEARE All’s Well That Ends Well, edited by Russell Fraser Antony and Cleopatra, edited by David Bevington As You Like It, edited by Michael Hattaway The Comedy of Errors, edited by T.

JOHN J. RAE, 127 STOCKWEU, STREET UA 031 b PREFACE. THIS book is not intended to be a full and continuous biography of the late Professor John. Stuart Blackie. So serious a work as that de- mands the services of one who, admitted to a closer friendship than I can claim, has also a greater literary power. I aim rather at giving the impressions left on my own mind and the minds of others, by a study of the life and work,, the sayings and sermons, the songs and lectures, the literary and other achievements of the late Professor. This volume is but a humble attempt to a to estimate give popular sketch of the man ; as far as possible the value of his contributions to life to contemporary thought and ; present within brief limits a picture of what he was and what he has done. To relate the story of the origin of this book and how I have been led to undertake the work of its Editor, would be an apology to myself rather than to the public ; but I may say that the task was not sought by, but was offered to^ me. At the time of the Professor's death I tried! in a sermon to point the lessons and the signifi- 959G34 cance of his life. Much of this sermon is included in the introductory chapter, and with slight alterations, is printed as it was delivered.

PREFACE This is the third edition, with additions and amendments (and a renumbering), of the edition originally published in 2004 by White Sheep Press. The intention of this checklist is to list all of the writings published by Abercrombie (although there are almost certainly a large number of book reviews and articles for the Nation that have not been traced). However, without this essential building block, which puts his works into context, meaningful analysis and criticism of his work is difficult. This is a working document, and if you would like to help make it a definitive list, please send any amendments and additions to me at [email protected]. They will be incorporated in the list and acknowledged. The format of the checklist is chronological, in order of first publication in periodical and book form. It should be borne in mind that there is a bibliographical hierarchy: contributions to periodicals, then contributions to books, and finally principal books.

    First World War Centenary Poetry Collection 28th July 2014 All items in this collection are in the U.S. Public Domain owing to date of publication. If you are not in the U.S.A., please check your own country's copyright laws. Whether an item is still in copyright will depend on the author's date of death. 01 Preface to Poems by Wilfred Owen (1893 - 1918) This Preface was found, in an unfinished condition, among Wilfred Owen's papers after his death. The (slightly amended) words from the preface “My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity” are inscribed on the memorial in Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey. 02 For the Fallen by Laurence Binyon (1869 - 1943) Published when the Battle of the Marne was raw in people's memories, For the Fallen was written in honour of the war dead. The fourth verse including the words “We will remember them” has become the Ode of Remembrance to people of many nations and is used in services of remembrance all over the world. 03 [RUSSIAN] Мама и убитый немцами вечер (Mama i ubity nemcami vecher) by Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893 - 1930) В стихах «Война объявлена!» и «Мама и убитый немцами вечер» В.В. Маяковский описывает боль жертв кровавой войны и свое отвращение к этой войне. In this poem “Mama and the Evening Killed by the Germans” Mayakovsky describes the victims' pain of bloody war and his disgust for this war. 04 To Germany by Charles Hamilton Sorley (1895 - 1915) Sorley is regarded by some, including John Masefield, as the greatest loss of all the poets killed during the war.

  • Brother Scots
    JOHN STUART BLACKIE The police inspector was very polite. He had much pleasure in returning to the signore tedesche their passports, and they might re§t assured that the Kingdom of Naples was honoured by their presence. The three German ladies—a mother and two daughters—smiled an uneasy appreciation of the official compliments. There was a suggestion of unpleasantness to come. Their party num- bered four, but only three passports had been returned. The inspeftor took the fourth from his pocket, glanced at it, frowned, put it back in his pocket and blew out his che§t. " But the signore capitano cannot proceed," he announced. A hurricane of protects broke out in which a shrill cackling male voice rose high above the melodious German accents of the ladies, and far surpassed them in fluency of inveftive.
