Synopsis
Excerpt from The Stagery of Shakespeare
Moreover I see no reason to introduce extraneous problems by comparisons with plays written for performance under circum stances which have no parallel in Shakespeare, as those by Ben Jonson for the Children of the Chapel. The single exception I have made is to Show the use Of the device of discovery. This involves, Of course, an attempt to establish the continuity Of practice which connects the practice of drawing curtains on the Elizabethan Stage with that, of drawing scenes on the Restoration Stage.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of Shakespeare's stagecraft by studying the stage directions in his plays. Previous attempts to analyze these directions have been hindered by an overreliance on unreliable or incomplete prompt books. This book, by contrast, focuses on original texts, revealing that they provide a wealth of detail about how Shakespeare's plays were staged. The author argues that the Elizabethan stage was more nuanced and sophisticated than previously thought, featuring multiple scenic divisions and a range of staging techniques that allowed for a variety of dramatic effects. The book thus challenges the prevailing notion of a primitive Elizabethan stage and offers new insights into the ways in which Shakespeare's plays were originally performed. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331036531_0
