The Shakespeare Quartos

Lehet, hogy már mindenki ismeri ezt az oldalt, amit most ajánlok. Nekem azonban új, és hátha valakinek éppen jól jön egy emlékeztető vagy felhívás.

Idemásolom a magukról írt bevezetést--gondolom, nem tudnám jobban megfogalmazni, meg mégiscsak autentikusabb így.

A link az intro után következik.

Introduction to the Archive

The Shakespeare Quartos Archive is a digital collection of pre-1642 editions of William Shakespeare's plays. A cross-Atlantic collaboration has also produced an interactive interface for the detailed study of these geographically distant quartos, with full functionality for all thirty-two quarto copies of Hamlet held by participating institutions.

• The Shakespeare Quartos Archive—Hamlet Prototype

  Here you can view full cover-to-cover digital reproductions and transcriptions of thirty-two copies of the five earliest editions of the play Hamlet. You can view quartos separately, or alongside any number of copies. You can search, annotate, make public or private sets of annotations, create exhibits or character cue line lists, and download and print text and images.

Introduction to the Henslowe-Alleyn Digitisation Project

 The Archive of Dulwich College in London, England, holds thousands of pages of manuscripts left to the College by its founder, the eminent actor Edward Alleyn (1566-1626). This archive includes his personal and professional papers and those he inherited from his father-in-law Philip Henslowe (d. 1616). As a group, these manuscripts comprise the largest and most important single extant archive of material on the professional theatre and dramatic performance in early modern England, the age of Shakespeare, Marlowe, Jonson, Middleton, Heywood, Dekker, Chettle, and so many of their contemporaries and colleagues.

Henslowe and Alleyn built and expanded several London public playhouses, including the Rose, the Fortune, and the Hope, the foundations of some of which have recently been discovered or excavated by Museum of London staff. Named by King James I as Joint ‘Masters of the Royal Game of Bears, Bulls and Mastiff Dogs’, Henslowe and Alleyn also staged such blood sports as bull- and bear- and lion-baiting at the Bear Garden and other venues, including royal palaces.

Henslowe and Alleyn commissioned plays from dramatists and ran several of the most successful acting companies of the time, including the Lord Strange’s Men and the Lord Admiral’s Men, for which Alleyn performed such famous roles as Dr Faustus and Tamburlaine. The sole surviving actor’s ‘part’ (or script) from the period, for the play Orlando Furioso, is in the Dulwich archive, as is the ‘plot’ (or prompter's outline) of the play The Second Part of the Seven Deadly Sins, one of only six plots from this period known to survive in part or in whole. In fact, most of what modern scholars know about the early modern English theatre, both as financial enterprise and artistic endeavour, comes from the study of the Henslowe and Alleyn papers at Dulwich College.

The Henslowe-Alleyn Digitisation Project has two aims and objectives: first, to protect and conserve these increasingly fragile manuscripts, and, second, to make their contents much more widely available in a free electronic archive and website, not only to specialist scholars but to all those interested in early modern English drama and theatre history, as well as social, economic, regional, architectural, and legal history, and palaeography and manuscript studies. It is the hope of the Henslowe Alleyn Digitisation Project members that the use of these manuscripts in electronic and digital form will not be confined to students and scholars but to a wide-ranging and ever-changing community of readers in a variety of ways.

The year 2011 marks the 400th anniversary of the publication of the King James Version,

undoubtedly the most important English translation of the Bible. Though this version is today often

associated with Fundamental Evangelical Christian circles, its historical importance and its cultural

and artistic impact cannot be overlooked. To commemorate the 400th anniversary of the publication,

SIG VERBI, an international research group of CETRA under the auspices of the faculties of Theology

and Arts of the K.U.Leuven and the Department of Translation Studies of the Lessius University

College (Antwerp), is holding a conference. The conference fits into the events to commemorate the

Protestant and Catholic Reformations, organized by Refo500, of which the K.U.Leuven is a project

partner. The aim of the conference is to present research on this remarkable version of the Bible

primarily from the perspective of translation, including the effects this piece of translation have

exercised on various areas of religious and popular culture, and especially on the theory and practice

of translation.

Confirmed speakers include, among others, prof. dr. Stephen Prickett (University of Kent),
prof. dr. Gordon Campbell (University of Leicester), prof. dr. Guido Latré (U.C.Louvain & UGent),
prof. dr. Amanda Piesse (Trinity College) and prof. dr. Tibor Fabiny (Budapest).

Paterson új könyve Shakespeare szonettjeiről

Nagy ünneplés veszi körül Don Paterson Shakespeare szonettjeiről írott új könyvét. Mielőtt megrendelnénk, érdemes elolvasni Paul Edmonson rövid kritikáját a könyvről.

Paul Edmondson: "Extinguishing Shakespeare's Sonnets".

A bejegyzés elegáns s metszően szomorú-- ha lehet ilyet mondani--, további érdekessége, hogy érződik belőle a könyv szerzőjének céhen kívülisége. Jó olvasást!
