William Shakespeare: Writing for Performance

Written for performance, Shakespeare's plays are very different texts from any intended for a reader with book in hand and they require a different kind of attention. John Russell Brown's latest book attempts a description of Shakespeare's distinctive practice as a writer for the stage and, in doing so, suggests ways of responding to the plays which bring them alive in the mind as if in performance. It is a book for use, to quicken both eye and ear while reading the texts and to enliven almost any critical debate.

The detailed 'Critical Reactions before 1900' section is retained, including comment from such critics as John Dryden, Johnson and Coleridge, the 'Play in Performance' section includes some of the most recent performances and the 'Twentieth-century Criticism' section ranges over the varied work of such critics as A.C.Bradley, L.C.Knights, Kay Stockholder, Michael Long and Leonard Tennenhouse.

Shakespeare: The Tragedies

This comprehensive and well-informed study is also a work of detection and reappraisal. Each tragedy is considered both as a text and as a play to experience in performance. Shakespeare's engagement with this form of drama is followed step-by-step until its concluding years of intense activity. No theory of tragedy emerges, but rather an increasing ability to maintain and communicate a clear-eyed perception of a changing and often violent society in which action is stronger than words or conscious intention.
