Thirteen leading actors take us behind the scenes, each recreating in detail a memorable performance in one of Shakespeares major roles.* Brian Cox on Titus Andronicus in Deborah Warners visceral RSC production * Judi Dench on being directed by Franco Zeffirelli as a twenty-three-year-old Juliet * Ralph Fiennes on Shakespeares least sympathetic hero Coriolanus * Rebecca Hall on Rosalind in As You Like It, directed by her father, Sir Peter * Derek Jacobi on his hilariously poker-backed Malvolio for Michael Grandage * Jude Law on his Hamlet, a palpable hit in the West End and on Broadway * Adrian Lester on a modern-dress Henry V at the National, during the invasion of Iraq * Ian McKellen on his Macbeth, opposite Judi Dench in Trevor Nunns RSC production * Helen Mirren on a role she was born for, and has played three times: Cleopatra * Tim Pigott-Smith on Leontes in Peter Halls Restoration Winters Tale at the National * Kevin Spacey on his high-tech, modern-dress Richard II * Patrick Stewart on Prospero in Rupert Goolds arctic Tempest for the RSC * Penelope Wilton on Isabella in Jonathan Millers chamberMeasure for MeasureThe actors discuss their characters, working through the play scene by scene, with refreshing candour and in forensic detail. The result is a masterclass on playing each role, invaluable for other actors and directors, as well as students of Shakespeare and fascinating for audiences of the plays.Together, the interviews give one of the most comprehensive pictures yet of these characters in performance, and of the choices that these great actors have made in bringing them thrillingly to life.These passages of times remembered contribute vividly to the sense of a teemingly creative period when Shakespeare seemed to have been rediscovered.Trevor Nunn, from his Foreword

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.

Frances Eliza Hodgson Burnett (24 November 1849 29 October 1924) was a British-American novelist and playwright. 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. The statue depicts her two famous Secret Garden characters, Mary and Dickon.

¿Cómo convertirse en primera figura de una compañía internacional de ballet? Con una mirada que trasciende lo técnico y se adentra en lo poético, Sarahí Lay Trigo nos invita a reflexionar sobre las profundidades y los secretos del mundo profesional del ballet. Lejos de un manual o tratado sobre formacion dancistica, Ser danza es un viaje hacia el corazon del ser que danza.A traves de una inmersion empirica en una compañia internacional de ballet, entrevistas con bailarines profesionales, analisis videografico y su implicacion directa como artista, la autora traza una obra pionera que fusiona teoria y practica con una profundidad pocas veces vista.Con agudeza critica, en esta obra se articulan dos niveles de analisis: el primero, "El ser como una burbuja", con las notas humanas esenciales del bailarin como ser moviente, sentiente, creador, comunicativo y reflexivo; el segundo, "El estudio esferico de la formacion dancistica", que despliega un mapa tridimensional del trayecto formativo en la isla del ballet: iniciatico, integrador y liberador.Fundamentada, principalmente, en la antropologia filosofica de Peter Sloterdijk y Xavier Zubiri, la autora transforma y amplia nuestra comprension del ser humano, en especial de su nota sentiente. Desde ahi, reinventa la concepcion clasica de los cinco sentidos y la expande hasta una experiencia de doce sentidos, atravesados por el prisma del movimiento.Este libro no solo interroga la danza, sino que la reinventa desde dentro. Nos habla de seres ejercitantes que piensan, arden, se desafian y se afinan como artistas del movimiento. Porque, si el ser que danza no danza, no hay arte ni obra ni vida.Una lectura imprescindible para quien quiera comprender como se encarna la excelencia artistica mediante la disciplina mas radical: la de ser, integramente, un ser que danza.

El occidente, con sus paradigmas hegemónicos centrados en el logos racional, sujeta y moldea nuestros cuerpos a su modelo único. Nos estructura en nuestra sensibilidad, en nuestros modos de expresarnos, en nuestra gestualidad, en nuestras formas, promoviendo un borramiento ritualizado del cuerpo que lo enmudece en nuestras vidas cotidianas, condenandonos a una perpetua ausencia. La propuesta de Sensopercepcion, una practica poetica de la presencia apunta a desocultar ese Cuerpo silenciado, a darle lugar. Lo desafia a la emergencia de su singularidad y a su despliegue poetico en un devenir de lo espontaneo, donde no participa el ordenamiento intelectual, racional, previo, sino que nos ubica en el aqui y ahora del acontecer en el instante.Como tecnica de la Expresion Corporal, promueve la heterogeneidad de los cuerpos y las danzas o performances efimeras que surgen en el instante, en tiempo real. Promueve el habitar el cuerpo, para ubicarnos en el espesor corporal y desde ahi hacer, ser y sentir.Raquel Guido sostiene, desde esta perspectiva, que el Cuerpo no es instrumento de la Danza, la Performance u otras artes del Movimiento o practicas que impliquen al cuerpo. Danzamos "en" el cuerpo, y no "con" el. Un Cuerpo entendido como construccion sociocultural, historica, politica, vincular y poetica, que se construye en la experiencia segun las condiciones de existencia. Un Cuerpo que va mas alla de la anatomia y al que le restituimos su dimension Imaginaria. Cuerpo poetico, presente, singular...La Sensopercepcion, asi entendida, es tanto una tecnica sensorial para la Danza y las Artes del cuerpo como un camino de autoconocimiento, un camino para la vida: el camino del cuerpo.

Sense and Sensibility is a novel by Jane Austen, and was her first published work when it appeared in 1811 under the pseudonym "A Lady". A work of romantic fiction, better known as a comedy of manners, Sense and Sensibility is set in southwest England, London and Kent between 1792 and 1797, and portrays the life and loves of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. The novel follows the young ladies to their new home, a meagre cottage on a distant relatives property, where they experience love, romance and heartbreak. The philosophical resolution of the novel is ambiguous: the reader must decide whether sense and sensibility have truly merged.

Cabrera ha scritto racconti che ci mettono di fronte al dilemma di sapere se sta parlando della realta sociale o dei propri fantasmi. Sono storie che affrontano temi come la famiglia, le relazioni tra esseri umani, la solitudine, i ricordi, la follia, la maternita, lansia, i desideri, il caos emotivo.Lautrice sa dosare con virtuosismo le tensioni e le crisi che le persone spesso vivono. Ma non sono storie che parlano direttamente della realta; il pregio della penna di Cabrera e quello di farci capire che esistono intrecci, trame, figure inquietanti di cui spesso non siamo consapevoli e che fanno parte della nostra vita. In questo modo, le storie interrogano il lettore, costringendolo ad individuare cio che non viene percepito direttamente, forse le proprie realta interiori (Ivan Rodrigo Mendizabal, critico letterario).PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

Estrenada en Italia en 1921 y publicada por primera vez en 1925, "Seis personajes en busca de autor" es la obra más famosa del escritor italiano Luigi Pirandello. En conjunto con el resto de su produccion dramatica de la epoca, propone innovadores procedimientos que seran posteriormente influyentes fundamentos del teatro moderno. Es considerada por algunos como su obra maestra."Seis personajes en busca de autor" es un habil drama, a la vez teorico y empirico, que versa sobre los elementos de la moderna dramaturgia, enfocados desde nuevas perspectivas: el autor, el director de la compañia, la construccion del texto escrito y su concordancia con el texto escenico, la actitud de los autores, la manera de llevar los ensayos, la representacion, el tinglado escenico, en fin, los limites del teatro.En "Seis personajes en busca de autor", el publico es confrontado con la llegada inesperada de seis personajes durante los ensayos de una obra teatral (casualmente, una propia obra de Pirandello: "El juego de roles") que insisten en ser provistos de vida en la obra, de permitirseles contar su propia historia.

Ma se e tutto qui il male! Nelle parole! Abbiamo tutti dentro un mondo di cose; ciascuno un suo mondo di cose! E come possiamo intenderci, signore, se nelle parole chio dico metto il senso e il valore delle cose come sono dentro di me; mentre chi le ascolta, inevitabilmente le assume col senso e col valore che hanno per se, del mondo comegli lha dentro? Crediamo dintenderci; non cintendiamo mai!
