Book Description
Until the modern period, the reproduction of written texts required manual transcription from earlier versions. This cumbersome process inevitably created errors and made it increasingly difficult to identify the original readings among multiple copies. Lachmann's method—associated with German classicist Karl Lachmann (1793-1851)—aimed to provide scholars with a scientific, systematic procedure to standardize the transmission of ancient texts. Although these guidelines for analysis were frequently challenged, they retained a paradigmatic value in philology for many years. In 1963, Italian philologist Sebastiano Timpanaro became the first to analyze in depth the history and limits of Lachmann's widely established theory with his publication, La genesi del metodo del Lachmann. This important work, which brought Timpanaro international repute, now appears in its first English translation. The Genesis of Lachmann's Method examines the origin, development, and validity of Lachmann's model as well as its association with Lachmann himself. It remains a fundamental work on the history and methods of philology, and Glenn W. Most's translation makes this seminal study available to an English-speaking audience. Revealing Timpanaro's extraordinary talent as a textual critic and world-class scholar, this book will be indispensable to classicists, textual critics, biblical scholars, historians of science, and literary theorists.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Staging of Lope De Vega's Comedias With the establishment of the first two permanent play-houses or corrales in Madrid, that in the Calle de la Cruz, in 1579, and the one in the Calle del Principe, in 1582, we may readily imagine that things were somewhat improved. Here, at all events, was a fixed stage, with seats for the auditors, which was a great step forward. Now, as nearly as we can determine, Spain's greatest dramatist, Lope de Vega, began to write for the public stage about 1585, or very shortly after the establishment of the Corral del Principe, to which theatre we also know that Lope, prior to 1588, was a very frequent visitor. In the absence of any definite information upon the point, it has seemed to me that an examination of the plays of Lope de Vega might throw some light upon the manner in which the comedia was put upon the stage in the latter part of the sixteenth, and the early years of the seventeenth centuries.

Book Description
The subject of stage directions in 'Hamlet', those brief semiotic codes that are embellished by historical, theatrical, and cultural considerations, produces a rigorous examination in the fifteen essays contained in this collection. This volume encompasses essays that are guardedly inductive in their critical approaches, as well as those that critique modern productions that attempt to achieve Shakespearean effect through a modern aesthetic. The volume also includes essays that enunciate the production of stage business as a cultural interplay between productions and social agencies outside the theater.
