  • "Infidelity" As an "Act of Love": Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) As a Rewrite of August Strindberg's Miss Julie (1888)
    "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.

  • On the Study and Promotion of Drama in Scottish Gaelic Sìm Innes
    Editorial: On the study and promotion of drama in Scottish Gaelic Sìm Innes (University of Glasgow) and Michelle Macleod (University of Aberdeen), Guest-Editors We are very grateful to the editors of the International Journal of Scottish Theatre and Screen for allowing us the opportunity to guest-edit a special volume about Gaelic drama. The invitation came after we had organised two panels on Gaelic drama at the biennial Gaelic studies conference, Rannsachadh na Gàidhlig, at the University Edinburgh 2014. We asked the contributors to those two panels to consider developing their papers and submit them to peer review for this special edition: each paper was read by both a Gaelic scholar and a theatre scholar and we are grateful to them for their insight and contributions. Together the six scholarly essays and one forum interview in this issue are the single biggest published work on Gaelic drama to date and go some way to highlighting the importance of this genre within Gaelic society. In 2007 Michelle Macleod and Moray Watson noted that ‘few studies of modern Gaelic drama’ (Macleod and Watson 2007: 280) exist (prior to that its sum total was an unpublished MSc dissertation by Antoinette Butler in 1994 and occasional reviews): Macleod continued to make the case in her axiomatically entitled work ‘Gaelic Drama: The Forgotten Genre in Gaelic Literary Studies’. (Dymock and McLeod 2011) More recently scholarship on Gaelic drama has begun to emerge and show, despite the fact that it had hitherto been largely neglected in academic criticism, that there is much to be gained from in-depth study of the genre.

    1 The 42nd Royal Highlanders America’s premier band of pipes, fifes, and drums Annual Newsletter 2013 XLII Greetings from the 42nd! -This year’s newsletter will focus on the band’s recently-completed Tour of Scot- land from June 19-27. This was truly a trip of a lifetime and we hope to tell all about the lead-in to the trip and what all the band accomplished during the tour. Yours Aye, Preston Smith President Tour of Scotland For decades, while performing all around the United States, the 42nd band has dreamed of traveling to and performing in Scotland. In the years leading up to and following the release of “No Matter What the Season”, the band’s marching and musicianship had improved to the point where, in 2011 - following the sale of the Griffin House and creation of the Griffin Endowment - the men of the 42nd set a goal to finally reach Scotland in 2013. Scotland Tour Group, Edinburgh Castle Since setting our sights on Scotland, the band has redoubled its efforts in many areas: maintaining and improving uniforms, acquiring matched chanters to improve the sound of the pipes, repaint- ing drums, upgrading the Regimental Colors (thanks to fifer Josh Rose for the painting of the regimental device!), Arranging new sets of music, working on marching, drill, and deportment, and developing a fundraising plan to make it all possible - primarily centered around playing for the public as much as possible. In the year before leaving for Scotland, the band traveled from the Straits of Mackinaw to the Gulf Coast, and put on nearly 30 perfor- mances.
