The World of Harlequin
Author: Allardyce Nicoll
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521058346
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
The commedia dell'arte was an improvised drama performed by masked players. How did the actors react to these demands and limitations? What force kept this form of theatre alive for more than two centuries and made Harlequin such a potent image? In this study of the commedia dell'arte, originally published in 1987, Professor Nicoll's concern is not to provide an historical survey of its origins or to trace the ascent and descent of Harlequin or any or any other character or 'mask', but rather to explore critically the answers to these and related questions. His arguments are based on the evidence of the play scenarios and contemporary documents as far as possible, and are illuminated by many illustrations that are either little-known or had not previously been reproduced.

Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
A grieving soldier masquerades as a butler on Scottish estate, only to fall in love with a baron’s daughter, a woman he must claim his title to marry. Captain Lucas Johns-Ives is injured in the same battle that killed his brother. Haunted by loss, Lucas is saved by Mairi Wallace, a woman as beautiful as the Scottish Highland estate she calls home. To repay his debt to her, he agrees to be her servant, a pretense that allows him to escape the responsibilities of the title he has long resisted. Tempted by Mairi’s sweetness, he soon opens his heart to love. But to win Mairi’s hand, he must face his demons and claim his noble birthright. “RITA Award–winning Gaston gracefully tips her literary cap to the classic film My Man Godfrey in her latest thoughtfully nuanced, sweetly romantic Regency historical. While she deftly explores such serious themes as family duty and survivor guilt, Gaston also celebrates the importance of kindness and compassion in our lives.” —Booklist
