  • David Copperfield
    THE PERSONAL HISTORY OF DAVID COPPERFIELD 30 min Schools Script THE PERSONAL HISTORY OF DAVID COPPERFIELD Play by David Schneider, Armando Iannucci and Simon Blackwell Based on the screenplay by Armando Iannucci and Simon Blackwell and the novel by Charles Dickens All our performers mingle on stage, chatting in character. There’s a lectern to one side of the stage. A few wooden chairs and a table are set out to suggest a living room. NARRATOR DAVID enters, smartly dressed, holding an old- fashioned manuscript book. The performers applaud him and take seats at the sides of the stage where they remain watching except when performing in a scene. The heavily pregnant CLARA takes a seat on one of the chairs in the “living room”. Narrator David goes to the lectern, opens his book and starts to read. NARRATOR DAVID To begin my life with the beginning of my life. Clara lets out a really loud moan. She’s in labour. CLARA AAAAAAAAAAAARGH! PEGGOTTY!!! PEGGOTTY gets up from the seats at the side and rushes around looking for something, including in the audience. PEGGOTTY Peggotty’s coming! As promised! Peggotty promisey. With you in 13 seconds!.. Aha! She finds what she’s looking for: some towels, hidden under one of the seats in the front row. Clara lets out another moan and Peggotty joins her with the towels. CLARA AAAAAAARGH! PEGGOTTY Try to pretend it doesn’t hurt. CLARA But it do-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH-es! BETSEY TROTWOOD gets up from her seat, knocks at an imaginary door and opens it. One of the other performers makes the knocking noise with a percussion instrument.

  • Teaching Dickens a Masterpiece Guide Contents
    Teaching Dickens A Masterpiece Guide Contents 2 Introduction 3 General Questions & Activities 7 Oliver Twist 10 David Copperfield 14 Little Dorrit 17 The Old Curiosity Shop 21 Stay Tuned: The Rise of the Killer Serial 26 Resources 29 Credits page 1 Introduction CHARLES DICKENS was the best-known novelist of his time, and is considered by many to be the greatest writer of the Victorian era. A social reformer, Dickens wrote sprawling serial novels that chronicled and condemned the injustices of Victorian society. Yet he was also a deft entertainer and satirist, creating vivid characters, such as Scrooge, Miss Havisham, and Uriah Heep, who are still a part of our culture today. As David Lodge, who adapted the 1995 MASTERPIECE THEATRE production of Martin Chuzzlewit, says in Norrie Epstein’s The Friendly Dickens (Penguin, 2001), “Dickens’ observation of folly, affectation, hypocrisy, self-deception, deception of others, and the way in which people manipulate language to these ends just tickles one. Dickens does what comedy has always done: it both exposes imperfections in the world and reconciles us to it by making something entertaining out of it.” Does Dickens still have something to say to us today? Use the activities and questions in this guide as you watch and read The Tales of Charles Dickens— the all-new 2009 MASTERPIECE adaptations of Oliver Twist, Little Dorrit, and The Old Curiosity Shop, as well as an encore presentation of David Copperfield, which originally aired in 2000. Whether through characters who have counterparts in current pop culture, plot twists that eerily echo stories in our own newspapers, or the universal questions Dickens raises about the mysteries of the human heart, this guide is designed to help readers see Dickens’ relevance to our world today.

  • David Copperfield by Charles Dickens
    David Copperfield by Charles Dickens David Copperfield is Dickens eighth novel. First published as a serial by Bradbury & Evans of London from May 1849 to November 1850 and then as a book in 1850. Dickens was 38 years old. To better understand Copperfield, it helps to know something about Dickens life. He was born on a Friday, same as Copperfield (and Saleem Sinai for that matter). Creative, driven, idealistic, passionate, intelligent, conflicted, and temperamental: Dickens said in a letter about himself “I was a great writer at 8 years old or so – was an actor and speaker from a baby… [and I] worked many [of my] childish experiences and … struggles into Copperfield.” Like Micawber, his father was sent to debtors prison accompanied by his wife and 4 youngest children. Similar to young David’s neglect, the 12-year-old Charles, no longer able to attend school, lived in a boarding house and worked in factory putting labels on bottles of shoe polish. As a young man, Dickens quickly mastered court reporting and made a living reporting on parliamentary debates before the success of his own writing took off. In his literary career, Dickens created over 2,000 characters and if the list were read aloud it would be shocking how many of them are recollected. To name just a few: Pecksniff, Scrooge, Oliver Twist, the Artful Dodger, Wackford Squeers, Sydney Carton, Fagin, Tiny Tim, Uriah Heep and Wilkins Micawber. In a speech commemorating Shakespeare’s birthday Dickens’s remarked “We meet on this day to celebrate the birthday of a vast army of living men and women who will live forever with an actuality greater than that of the men and women whose external forms we see around us…” Elsewhere Dickens wrote “Of all my books, … I like [Copperfield] the best.

Dickens and Shakespeare’s Household Words Daniel Pollack-Pelzner “‘Familiar in their Mouths as HOUSEHOLD WORDS.’—SHAKESPEARE.” —Epigraph to Charles Dickens’s weekly periodical, Household Words In the nineteenth century, perhaps no writer earned more comparisons to Shakespeare than Dickens, and the comparison has endured to the present. We are familiar with the qualities they share: a remarkable range of memorable characterization, flights of verbal invention, the ability to mix tragedy and comedy, reinvigorating traditional genres and plots, and a highly performative, even meta-theatrical sensibility.

  • ANDREAS ASCHARIN: Schach-Humoresken
    ANDREAS ASCHARIN: Schach-Humoresken Aus meinen Schach-Lehrjahren. "Der Lenz hatte sich seit der bedeutsamen Stunde meiner Geburt zum dreizehnten Male erneuert, als ich klopfenden Herzens den Tempel Caïffas betrat." Etwa so würde sich mein vortrefflicher Freund Wilkins Micawber*) über dieses denkwürdige Ereigniß verlautbaren lassen, wäre er an meiner Stelle. Unfähig, den kühnen Gedankenflug und die glänzende Beredtsamkeit dieses großen Mannes nachzuahmen, begnüge ich mich, in der mir geläufigen trockenen Prosa zu bemerken, daß ich das hoffnungsvolle Alter der Bengeljahre erreicht hatte, als ich das Schachspiel kennen lernte. Mit einem Schulkameraden, dem Sohne eines Gastwirthes, hatte ich ein unzerreißbares Freundschaftsbündniß geschlossen, welches um so fester war, als es zur Basis den gemeinschaftlichen Nutzen hatte und das ganze Gebiet vom Frühstücksbutterbrod und dem Taschengelde bis zu den griechischen Exercitien und der Abwehr roher Gewalt seitens rauflustiger Mitschüler umfaßte. Die größere Freiheit, welche wir Knaben bei W's genossen, sowie die Anziehung, welche das Billard und die Kegelbahn auf uns ausübten, bestimmte uns, die gemeinschaftlichen Schularbeiten daselbst zu machen. Der Vater meines Freundes war allerdings wenig damit zufrieden, daß wir unsere Mußestunden dazu benutzten, die Kegel zu zerklopfen und Löcher in's Billardtuch zu reißen. Es gab daher manchen Verdruß, und der Kopf wurde uns häufiger gewaschen, als uns lieb war. Als wir uns wieder einmal ob der erhaltenen Strafpredigt hinter den Ohren kratzten, meinte mein Freund: "Der Alte" — darunter verstand der liebevolle Sprößling seinen Vater — "der Alte ist heute so mürrisch, weil er sein dummes Schach nicht spielen kann." Ich erfuhr, daß "der Alte" gewohnt war, alltäglich sein Partiechen zu machen; und da er, seiner großen Corpulenz wegen, die ihm das Gehen sauer machte, sich fast gar nicht vom Hause rührte, besuchte ihn jeden Abend ein ebenso eifriger "Schächer", als er selbst war.
