In trying to understand the universality of literature, scholars aj?e continually discovering and relating recurring themes, literary techniques, and characters. By studying recurring themes, scholars can understand the ideas and problems which have interested authors of many eras. By studying recurring literary techniques, they can see the value of techniques which have been useful throughout history. And, by studying reciorring characters (or types of characters), they can L-"' / understand the qualities of human nature which are un- ^^ changing. Possibly the most interesting consideration of this type of relativity is the comparison of recurring char­ acters. Authors sometimes choose, as subjects for their own literary works, characters that have been created by another author. When such a choice is made, and when the recreated characters are not renamed, the student of literature becomes especially interested in trying to compare the two works and the characters that are used in both works.

    1. Class Title 1 (Simon Keenlyside) 2. Waterhouse: Miranda (1916, private collection) The Tempest (1611) is the last play which Shakespeare wrote alone. It has been described as the most musical of his works, on account of the number of songs in the text, the interpolated masque in the last act, and because it works less through cause and effect than through enchantment, an intrinsically musical quality. It is the only play for which we have any of the original stage music. And according to Wikipedia, it has inspired over four dozen operatic or musical settings. As early as the mid-seventeenth century, managements were adapting the play as a kind of masque, rather than performing the original. 3. Ariel’s Tempest in Columbia I’m also somewhat familiar with it myself. I directed the first performance of The Tempest by American composer Lee Hoiby in the late 1980s, and wrote my own adaptation in 2011 for composer Douglas Allan Buchanan, a 60-minute condensation that we toured to young audiences all over Maryland. 4. Round table discussion at the Met But the version we are watching today is the work of the two people in the middle of this picture: composer/conductor Thomas Adès (b.1971) and the Australian playwright Meredith Oakes (b.1946), seen here with Met General Manager Peter Gelb and stage director Robert Lepage. The picture comes from an intermission feature in the Met’s 2012 Live-in-HD transmission of the opera; I thought of playing it, but it is hard to hear and rather light on information.
  • 'Triptych', from Seamus Heaney's Field Work

    'Triptych', from Seamus Heaney's Field Work

    An In-Depth Study of ‘Triptych’, from Seamus Heaney’s Field Work An In-Depth Study of ‘Triptych’, from Seamus Heaney’s Field Work Martin Connolly This paper focuses critical attention on ‘Triptych’, the sequence of three poems in Seamus Heaney’s 1979 collection Field Work. The sequence directly follows the opening poem ‘Oysters’, and by virtue of position alone commands attention. It is the first of a number of poems in the collection to address the conflict in Northern Ireland, and can be seen as a kind of public poetry, very different in tone, theme and style from early Heaney. This exploration derives from attempts to provide satisfactory answers to questions concerning elements within the sequence which resist smooth interpretation. My method of approach is largely chronological, in the sense that I go through the poems starting at the beginning and plough through to the end, stanza by stanza, sometimes line by line, attempting to guide the reader toward an understanding of the poem derived from apparent textual evidence. Early on, however, I do state what I think the poetic sequence is designed to be, and this argument informs my interpretation throughout. Yet, at every point, I provide what I consider a coherent rationale and logic for my critical opinions. I would certainly welcome debate on each and every point. The conclusions I have come to in regard to this poetic sequence, are, at times, negative, but not exclusively so. I have looked at this poetic sequence up close and － 129 － found it to be problematic in a number of areas.

    Teacher Resource Pack I, Malvolio

    TEACHER RESOURCE PACK I, MALVOLIO WRITTEN & PERFORMED BY TIM CROUCH RESOURCES WRITTEN BY TIM CROUCH unicorntheatre.com timcrouchtheatre.co.uk I, MALVOLIO TEACHER RESOURCES INTRODUCTION Introduction by Tim Crouch I played the part of Malvolio in a production of Twelfth Night many years ago. Even though the audience laughed, for me, it didn’t feel like a comedy. He is a desperately unhappy man – a fortune spent on therapy would only scratch the surface of his troubles. He can’t smile, he can’t express his feelings; he is angry and repressed and deluded and intolerant, driven by hate and a warped sense of self-importance. His psychiatric problems seem curiously modern. Freud would have had a field day with him. So this troubled man is placed in a comedy of love and mistaken identity. Of course, his role in Twelfth Night would have meant something very different to an Elizabethan audience, but this is now – and his meaning has become complicated by our modern understanding of mental illness and madness. On stage in Twelfth Night, I found the audience’s laughter difficult to take. Malvolio suffers the thing we most dread – to be ridiculed when he is at his most vulnerable. He has no resolution, no happy ending, no sense of justice. His last words are about revenge and then he is gone. This, then, felt like the perfect place to start with his story. My play begins where Shakespeare’s play ends. We see Malvolio how he is at the end of Twelfth Night and, in the course of I, Malvolio, he repairs himself to the state we might have seen him in at the beginning.

    “Savage and Deformed”: Stigma As Drama in the Tempest Jeffrey R

    “Savage and Deformed”: Stigma as Drama in The Tempest Jeffrey R. Wilson The dramatis personae of The Tempest casts Caliban as “asavageand deformed slave.”1 Since the mid-twentieth century, critics have scrutinized Caliban’s status as a “slave,” developing a riveting post-colonial reading of the play, but I want to address the pairing of “savage and deformed.”2 If not Shakespeare’s own mixture of moral and corporeal abominations, “savage and deformed” is the first editorial comment on Caliban, the “and” here Stigmatized as such, Caliban’s body never comes to us .”ס“ working as an uninterpreted. It is always already laden with meaning. But what, if we try to strip away meaning from fact, does Caliban actually look like? The ambiguous and therefore amorphous nature of Caliban’s deformity has been a perennial problem in both dramaturgical and critical studies of The Tempest at least since George Steevens’s edition of the play (1793), acutely since Alden and Virginia Vaughan’s Shakespeare’s Caliban: A Cultural His- tory (1993), and enduringly in recent readings by Paul Franssen, Julia Lup- ton, and Mark Burnett.3 Of all the “deformed” images that actors, artists, and critics have assigned to Caliban, four stand out as the most popular: the devil, the monster, the humanoid, and the racial other. First, thanks to Prospero’s yarn of a “demi-devil” (5.1.272) or a “born devil” (4.1.188) that was “got by the devil himself” (1.2.319), early critics like John Dryden and Joseph War- ton envisioned a demonic Caliban.4 In a second set of images, the reverbera- tions of “monster” in The Tempest have led writers and artists to envision Caliban as one of three prodigies: an earth creature, a fish-like thing, or an animal-headed man.

    The Tempest: Synopsis by Jo Miller, Grand Valley Shakespeare Festival Dramaturg

    The Tempest: Synopsis By Jo Miller, Grand Valley Shakespeare Festival Dramaturg Long ago and far away, Prospero, the Duke of Milan, pursued the contemplative life of study while turning the administration of his Dukedom over to his brother [in our play a sister, Antonia], who, greedy for power, made a deal with the King of Naples to pay tribute to the King in exchange for help in usurping Prospero’s title. Together they banished Prospero from Milan, thrusting him out to sea in a rotten, leaky boat with his infant daughter, Miranda. Miraculously, the father and daughter survived and were marooned on an island where Sycorax, an evil witch who died after giving birth to Caliban, had also been exiled. Caliban is thus the only native inhabitant of the isle besides the spirit, Ariel, and his fellow airy beings. For twelve years now, Prospero and Miranda have lived in exile on this island, with Prospero as its de facto king, ruling over Caliban and all the spirits as his slaves, while he has nurtured Miranda and cultivated his powerful magic. At the moment play begins, that same King of Naples and his son Prince Ferdinand, along with the King’s brother [here a sister, Sebastiana], Prospero’s sister, Antonia, and the whole royal court, are sailing home from having given the Princess Claribel in marriage to the King of Tunis. Prospero conjures up a mighty tempest, which wrecks the King’s boat on the island, separating the mariners from the royal party, and isolating Ferdinand so that the King believes him drowned.
