Synopsis
Newly available in paperback, this collection of essays, written by distinguished international scholars, focuses on the structural influence of Italian literature, culture and society at large on Shakespeare's dramatic canon. Exploring recent methodological trends coming from Anglo-American new historicism and cultural materialism and innovative analyses of intertextuality, the volume's four thematic sections deal with 'Theory and practice', 'Culture and tradition', 'Text and ideology' and 'Stage and spectacle'.
In their own views and critical perspectives, the individual chapters throw fresh light on the dramatist's pliable technique of dramatic construction and break new ground in the field of influence studies and intertextuality as a whole.
A rich bibliography of secondary literature and a detailed index round off the volume.

Paperback. Etat : New. Italy loomed large on the English Renaissance stage. But what did Italy signify to these playwrights and their audiences? Renaissance scholars from around the world each contribute a different perspective to this central question. This collection of essays covers the four main topics: "Images and Culture', "Themes and Tradition", "Venice", and "Language and Ideology". Among the contributors are Harry Levin, J.R. Mulryne, Georgio Melchiori, Leo Salingar, Agostino Lombardo, Avraham Oz and Manfred Pfister. By challenging traditional readings of the subject, "Shakespeare's Italy" enables the students to view the exploitation of the Italian setting as a structural constituent of Renaissance drama, the moral and political implications of its use and its meaning for a contemporary as well as an Elizabethan audience. This text is aimed at lecturers and researchers in Renaissance literature and Shakespeare studies. N° de réf. du vendeur 84957
