Lewis Theobald and the Editing of Shakespeare
Author: Peter Seary
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Since his death in 1744, Theobald's reputation as a scholar and critic has been determined chiefly by Pope's Dunciad Variorum (1729) and Johnson's Preface to Shakespeare (1765). This study, while putting the hostile views of Pope and Johnson into their intellectual and social contexts,reassesses Theobald's aims and achievements from the perspective of twentieth-century textual scholarship: his concerns with Elizabethan philology, palaeography, and bibliography, which were usually ignored or ridiculed in his own time, are seen to be distinctly modern. At the same time, attentionis paid to his critical understanding of Shakespeare. The result is a radical alteration of our view of him: instead of appearing a contemptible dunce, Theobald takes his place as the pioneer of techniques of modern literary scholarship whose critical acumen still illuminates our understanding ofShakespeare today.

In Arden: Editing Shakespeare - Essays In Honour of Richard Proudfoot
Author: Gordon McMullan
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1474242987
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
A collection of new and specially commissioned essays by an eminent team of Shakespeare scholars, focusing on the particular issues relating to the editing of Shakespeare and other Renaissance texts. The editing of dramatic and other literary texts has always been an important aspect of literary studies. In recent years, editing and the theoretical frameworks that underlie editing practices have become a lively and controversial focus of debate, sparked both by philosophical discussions on 'the death of the author' and by the technological challenges presented by the possibilities of electronic texts. Most national and international conferences on literature and drama include sessions on textual studies and editing, and a number of monographs address particular issues relating to the editing of Shakespeare and other Renaissance texts, but this is the first overall survey of the current state of the field. The essays have been commissioned to honour Professor Richard Proudfoot, Senior General Editor of the Arden Shakespeare, and an internationally recognised authority in the field of Shakespeare textual scholarship, who retired from King's College London in 1999 after 35 years. This is a well-planned, focused and co-ordinated volume makes a significant contribution to Shakespeare studies. The contributors are a formidable and global group of scholars, representing both traditional and contemporary viewpoints. They include a number of Arden editors, past and present, as well as scholars who have edited texts for the main competitors.
