The Plays of Christopher Marlowe and George Peele
Author: Brian B. Ritchie
Publisher: Universal-Publishers
ISBN: 1581120729
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
This work is concerned with the evaluation of rhetoric as an essential aspect of Renaissance sensibility. It is an analysis of the Renaissance world viewed in terms of literary style and aesthetic. Eight plays are analysed in some detail: four by George Peele: The Battle of Alcazar, Edward I, David and Bethsabe, and The Arraignment of Paris; and four by Christopher Marlowe: Dido Queen of Carthage, Tamburlaine Part One, Dr Faustus and Edward II. The work is thus partly a comparative study of two important Renaissance playwrights; it seeks to establish Peele in particular as an important figure in the history and evolution of the theatre. Verbal rhetoric is consistently linked to an analysis of the visual, so that the reader/viewer is encouraged to assess the plays holistically, as unified works of art. Emphasis is placed throughout on the dangers of reading Renaissance plays with anachronistic expectations of realism derived from modern drama; the importance of Elizabethan audience expectation and reaction is considered, and through this the wider artistic sensibility of the period is assessed.

Pages : 68
Book Description
Romeo Cupid Jr. When my mother declares war on my single-hood, I know it’s time I find a decoy. At 35, I’m the oldest bachelor in the cupid clan so my meddling mother has concocted a plan to get me engaged by my sister’s wedding. Acting on desperation, I accept a date-for-hire with a woman named Chels. It was supposed to be a temporary fix, but once my eyes land on her, there’s no way I’ll let her go – Even if she thinks I’m just a Stupid Cupid. Looks like I’ll be granting my mom’s wish after all. Chelsea “Chels” McQueen Spinster, cat lady, freak…Yeah I knew the names everyone called me. That's why I needed to get out of the North Pole, and quick. Short on cash, and out of options, I accept the job of girlfriend for a week. How bad could it be for a thousand bucks? I was expecting an awkward and shy man who was being tormented about being single. What I didn’t bargain for was the handsome giant I get instead. He may think he can be boss me like the Neanderthal he is, but I’ll show him. Just as soon as I stop getting lost in those troubled emerald eyes. This Valentine’s Day, the reluctant Cupid has met his match. He’ll have to pull out all the stops, and then some.
