Paperback. Condition: New. As the Elizabethan era gave way to the reign of James I, England grappled with corruption within the royal court and widespread religious anxiety. Dramatists responded with morally complex plays of dark wit and violent spectacle, exploring the nature of death, the abuse of power and vigilante justice. In Kyd's The Spanish Tragedy a father failed by the Spanish court seeks his own bloody retribution for his son's murder. Shakespeare's 1603 version of Hamlet creates an avenging Prince of unique psychological depth, while Chettle's The Tragedy of Hoffman is a fascinating reworking of Hamlet's themes, probably for a rival theatre company. In Marston's Antonio's Revenge, thwarted love leads inexorably to gory reprisals and in Middleton's The Revenger's Tragedy, malcontent Vindice unleashes an escalating orgy of mayhem on a debauched Duke for his bride's murder, in a ferocious satire reflecting the mounting disillusionment of the age. Emma Smith's introduction considers the political and religious climate behind the plays and the dramatic conventions within them. This edition includes a chronology, playwrights' biographies and suggestions for further reading.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a revelatory account of a decorated veteran who penned a scathing letter to then President James Monroe, chronicling the military and political failures that led to an unjust dismissal. The author chronicles the events of his own life in a daring indictment of the broken promises, petty bureaucracy, and arrogance that prevailed in the early days of the American republic. At a time when the young nation faced war and political turmoil, it was imperative that merit determine the destiny of the country's leaders. Instead, the author's account proves that the grounds for his dismissal were as arbitrary as they were humiliating. This book not only scrutinizes a forgotten chapter of American history but also serves as an indictment of those in power who fail to live up to the ideals they espouse. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
