"Titus Andronicus * Timon of Athens * Coriolanus "Each Edition Includes: Comprehensive explanatory notes placed on pages facing the text of the play Vivid introductions and the most up-to-date scholarship Clear, modernized spelling and punctuation, enabling contemporary readers to understand the Elizabethan English Completely updated, detailed bibliographies and performance histories An interpretive essay on film adaptations of the play, along with an extensive filmography "Titus Andronicus" This, Shakespeare's earliest tragedy, is also his bloodiest and most horror-filled. A Roman general, to appease the spirit of his dead son, sacrifices the son of a captive Goth queen--and sets in motion a remorseless cycle of revenge and counterrevenge. The play's vivid spectacle of violence stuns audiences with rape, murder, mutilation, and unmitigated cruelty. "Timon of Athens" This stark drama--in some ways Shakespeare's most bitter play--is a brilliant psychological portrait of a wealthy Athenian lord whose extraordinary trust and love for others turns to hate and spite when, bankrupted by his generosity, he is overwhelmed by the indifference and ingratitude of those he had thought friends. " Coriolanus" The arrogance of a Roman military hero puts him in conflict with the people of Rome when the aristocrat is unwilling to compromise with the commoners he so despises. Compellingly relevant today, Shakespeare's last tragedy--from its opening scene of popular unrest to its chilling climax of betrayal and murder--takes an unwavering, ironic look at political extremism.

In the early Elizabethan period, nine of the ten tragedies attributed to the ancient Roman statesman, philosopher, and playwright Seneca (c. 1 BCE-65 CE) were translated for the first time into English, and these translations shaped Seneca's dramatic legacy as it would be known to later authors and playwrights. This edition enables readers to appreciate the distinct style and aims of three milestone translations: Jasper Heywood's 'Troas' (1559) and 'Thyestes' (1560), and John Studley's 'Agamemnon' (1566). The plays are presented in modern spelling and accompanied by critical notes clarifying the translators' approaches to rendering Seneca in English. The introduction provides important context, including a survey of the transmission and reception of Seneca from the first through to the sixteenth century and an analysis and comparison of the style of the three translations. James Ker is Associate Professor of Classical Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. He is the author of The Deaths of Seneca (2009), A Seneca Reader (2011), and articles on Greek and Roman literature. Jessica Winston is Professor of English at Idaho State University. She is the author of numerous articles on early Elizabethan literature and the Elizabethan reception of Seneca.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

In Sophocles' Oedipus Rex the king sets out to uncover the cause of the plague that has struck his city, only to disover the devastating truth about his relationship with his mother and his father.

The Great Tragedy Of Euripides And The Advent Of Marlowe And Shakespeare To The Elizabethan Stage, There Seems To Be A Dismal Reign Of Chaos And Old Night . But The Darkness Is Not Really So Black As It Appears At First Sight And The Burst Of Splendour In Periclean Athens Not Completely Separated From The Renewed Glories Of Elizabethan England. Between The Two We May Discern A Line Of Dimly-Glowing Sparks, Never Entirely Disconnected From The Original Source Of Light And Heat. Seneca, Who Pillaged All The Great Masters Of Greek Tragedy, May Be Compared To A Damp And Crackling Torch Which Gave Off More Smoke And Sputter Than Warmth And Brightness, But He Still Served As A Conveyer Of The Sacred Fire.The Senecan Tragedy Gave The Renaissance A Point Of Departure For A New Form Of Art, Widely Divergent From Classical Tradition, Although Indebted To It For Some Important Details, And One All-Important Principle Regularity Of Structure Which, From All Appearances, It Would Have Taken Centuries For Mediaeval Drama To Attain Without The Stimulus And Authority Of Classical Example.The Renaissance Conception Of Tragedy, Moreover, Was Influenced By The Ideas Which Had Been Inherited From The Middle Ages.
