Paperback. Condition: New. Second Edition. New approaches to teaching a familiar workBy the time they encounter Romeo and Juliet in the classroom, many students have already been exposed to various, and sometimes incongruous, manifestations of Shakespeare's work. This volume makes a virtue of students' familiarity with the preconceptions, anachronisms, and appropriations that shape experiences of the work, finding innovative pedagogical possibilities in the play's adaptations and in new technologies that spark students' creative responses. The essays cover a wide area of concerns, such as marriage, gender, queer perspectives, and girlhood, and contributors embrace different ways of understanding the play, such as through dance, editing, and acting. The final essays focus on decolonizing the text by foregrounding both the role of race and economic inequality in the play and the remarkable confluence of Romeo and Juliet and Hispanic culture. This volume discusses the following texts: Valeria Luiselli's "Shakespeare, New Mexico," James Lujan's Kino and Teresa, Guadalupe García McCall's Shame the Stars, Ovid's Metamorphoses, and Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Taylor Swift's song "Love Story" is discussed in the volume, as are the following films: Alan Brown's Private Romeo, Baz Luhrmann's William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet, Steven Spielberg's West Side Story, Carey Williams's R#J, Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins's West Side Story, and Franco Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet.…

Paperback or Softback. Condition: New. Gordon Merrick and the Great Gay American Novel. Book.

Paperback. Condition: New. Gordon Merrick and the Great Gay American Novel is the first biography of Gordon Merrick, the most commercially successful writer of gay novels in the twentieth century. This book shows how Merrick's novels were largely based on his own life and time as a Princeton theater star, a Broadway actor, a New York reporter, an OSS spy, and the friend of countless artists and celebrities as an expatriate in France, Greece, and Sri Lanka. He lived much of his life as an openly gay man with his longtime partner, Charles Hulse. His 1970 novel, The Lord Won't Mind, broke new ground by showing that an affirming, explicitly gay novel could be a bestseller. His subsequent gay novels were both a cultural phenomenon and a lightning rod for literary critics. This book also examines the complex, often conflicting responses to Merrick's novels by gay readers and critics, and it thus recovers the early post-Stonewall debates over the definition of "gay literature." By reconstructing Merrick's life and critical fortunes, this book expands our understanding of what it means to be a gay man in the twentieth century.…
