O ator. O ator num lugar entre outros dois lugares. O ator sobre uma rampa. O ator sobre uma linha reta. Dentro desta linha reta, todas as travessias do mundo. Dentro deste mundo, um mundo de travessias. E sobre o tempo. E sobre o absurdo e a maravilha de estar vivo aqui e agora. E gif. E meme. E videogame, e o jogador esta preso numa mesma fase. E um pais preso nas mesmas contradiçes. E a eterna escalada ao topo da montanha. E pau, e pedra, e o fim do caminho. E o começo do caminho uma vez mais. So sessenta travessias. So se tem o ponto de partida e o ponto de chegada: como se preenche esse percurso? E uma metafora para a vida. E a vida em si mesma. E este o jogo. A travessia talvez seja a grande protagonista de Sisifo. Inspirado no mito grego do homem que carrega diariamente sua pedra morro acima para ve-la rolar ladeira abaixo e começar tudo de novo , o texto escrito por Gregorio Duvivier e Vinicius Calderoni parte da mitologia ate o caotico mundo hiperconectado dos memes e dos gifs, do Brasil das contradiçes, do absurdo e dos recomeços."Sobre o palco, um ator e uma rampa. O ator caminha da extremidade inferior a extremidade superior da rampa. Quando conclui esse percurso, salta. E recomeça o mesmo traçado. E outra vez. E outra. Sempre assim. A seguir, sessenta maneiras de percorrer um mesmo caminho."

Cabrera ha escrito unos cuentos que nos ponen frente al dilema de saber si habla de la realidad social o de los fantasmas propios. Son cuentos que tratan de temas como la familia, las relaciones entre seres humanos, la soledad, los recuerdos, la locura, la maternidad, la ansiedad, los deseos, el caos emocional.La autora sabe como dosificar con virtuosismo las tensiones y los quiebres que muchas veces viven las personas. Pero no se trata de relatos que directamente hablen de la realidad; el valor de la pluma de Cabrera es hacer un extrañamiento para hacernos dar cuenta que hay intersticios, tramas, figuras inquietantes de las que muchas veces no nos damos cuenta y que forman parte de nuestras vidas.De este modo, los cuentos inquieren al lector, le obligan a identificar lo que no se percibe directamente, acaso las propias realidades internas.(Ivan Rodrigo Mendizabal, critico literario)PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

Julias Eltern, die von der heimlichen Ehe nichts ahnen, drangen ihre Tochter zur Hochzeit mit Graf Paris.

Der junge Prinz Hamlet kehrt nach dem plotzlichen Tod seines Vaters, des Konigs von Danemark, nach Schloss Helsingr zuruck. Dort findet er seine Mutter Gertrude bereits an der Seite seines Onkels Claudius, des neuen Konigs. Als der Geist seines Vaters erscheint und enthullt, dass Claudius ihn heimtuckisch ermordete, schwort Hamlet Rache. Um seine Plane zu verbergen, spielt er den Wahnsinnigen. Doch sein seltsames Verhalten hat tragische Folgen. In William Shakespeares beruhmtester Tragodie verstrickt sich der Protagonist in einen Strudel aus Tauschung, Verrat und Gewalt. Das um 1601 entstandene Drama zeigt einen Helden im Zwiespalt zwischen Racheauftrag und philosophischem Grubeln, zwischen entschlossenem Handeln und endlosem Zaudern.

A unique collection of Shakespeares every reflection on the theatre, offering fascinating insights into the man, his work, and the world of the Jacobean stage.Shakespeare was a man of the theatre to his core, so it is no surprise that he repeatedly contemplated the nuts and bolts of his craft in his plays and poems.Shakespeare scholar Nick de Somogyi here draws together all the cherishable set pieces including All the worlds a stage, Hamlets encounters with the Players, and Bottoms amateur theatricals along with many other oblique but no less revealing glances, and further insights into theatre practice by Shakespeares contemporaries and rivals.De Somogyis informed commentary takes us through the entire process of a plays theatrical production, from its casting and auditions, via rehearsals, costumes, and props, to its premiere and audience reception.Shakespeare on Theatre eavesdrops on the urgently whispered noises-off in the tiring-house and inhales the heady aroma of the Globes first audiences.

The idea for this book came from reading E.A.J. Honigmanns book Shakespeare, The Lost Years in which he makes a strong case for Shakespeare spending time in Lancashire as a teacher. It was a short step from reading this book, and many more, to imagining his life as a boy: through his teenage years, thinking about girls and wondering about his future. The healthy interest in sex he shows in his plays as an adult would no doubt have been stimulated by his encounters in his teenage years. This story ends with his marriage to Anne Hathaway and his eventual escape to London.

She is best known for the three childrens novels Little Lord Fauntleroy (published in 18851886), A Little Princess (1905), and The Secret Garden (1911).Frances Eliza Hodgson was born in Cheetham, Manchester, England. After her father died in 1852, the family fell on straitened circumstances and in 1865 immigrated to the United States, settling near Knoxville, Tennessee. There Frances began writing to help earn money for the family, publishing stories in magazines from the age of 19. In 1870, her mother died, and in 1872 Frances married Swan Burnett, who became a medical doctor. The Burnetts lived for two years in Paris, where their two sons were born, before returning to the United States to live in Washington, D.C., Burnett then began to write novels, the first of which (That Lass o Lowries), was published to good reviews. Little Lord Fauntleroy was published in 1886 and made her a popular writer of childrens fiction, although her romantic adult novels written in the 1890s were also popular. She wrote and helped to produce stage versions of Little Lord Fauntleroy and A Little Princess.Burnett enjoyed socializing and lived a lavish lifestyle. Beginning in the 1880s, she began to travel to England frequently and in the 1890s bought a home there, where she wrote The Secret Garden. Her oldest son, Lionel, died of tuberculosis in 1890, which caused a relapse of the depression she had struggled with for much of her life. She divorced Swan Burnett in 1898, married Stephen Townsend in 1900, and divorced him in 1902. A few years later she settled in Nassau County, Long Island, where she died in 1924 and is buried in Roslyn Cemetery.In 1936 a memorial sculpture by Bessie Potter Vonnoh was erected in her honour in Central Parks Conservatory Garden.
