To the Lighthouse is a 1927 novel by Virginia Woolf. A landmark of high modernism, the novel centres on the Ramsays and their visits to the Isle of Skye in Scotland between 1910 and 1920.Following and extending the tradition of modernist novelists like Marcel Proust and James Joyce, the plot of To the Lighthouse is secondary to its philosophical introspection. The novel includes little dialogue and almost no action; most of it is written as thoughts and observations. The novel recalls childhood emotions and highlights adult relationships. Among the books many tropes and themes are those of loss, subjectivity, and the problem of perception.In 1998, the Modern Library named To the Lighthouse No. 15 on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century.In 2005, the novel was chosen byTIME magazine as one of the one hundred best English-language novels from 1923 to present.

This is the first study of one of the most significant voices of modern international theatre, one of Waless leading writers, and one of the most compelling and beautiful bodies of work in the last fifty years. To Bodies Gone is written by playwright Barney Norris, who has assisted in Gills productions and possesses an intimate and personal knowledge of Gills processes and values. He explores a career remarkable in its constancy from the groundbreaking stagingideas of the early productions to the extraordinary heights of the mature work, illustrated by the rave reviews for Versailles, Gill latest play. Norriss principle theme is the aesthetic Gill introduced to theatre, and which has remained the bedrock of his work, in its various manifestations across several decades: Gills work as a writer and director has consistently revealed the extraordinary in the daily world. Analysing his career broadly chronologically, this study places Gills work in the wider context of the theatre, providing a portrait ofBritish theatre in the second half of the twentieth century and contributing new insights into theatre history. To Bodies Gone includes chapters on Gills early work, influences (Lawrence, Chekhov, Beckett), his translations and adaptations (Lawrence, Chekhov, Wedekind, Faulkner), his directing career at the Royal Court, Riverside Studios, National Theatre and NT Studio, plus his major plays - Small Change, Kick for Touch, In the Blue, Cardiff East, The York Realist and, most recently, Versailles, Gills exploration of the new order following the first world war. The result is a major study full of insight into Gill and into British Theatre.

"Tis Pity Shes a Whore" is perhaps the most popular and frequently performed play by John Ford, whom many scholars consider the last major dramatist of the English renaissance. The play was first published in 1633 and is a family drama with a plot line of incest. The plays title has often been changed in new productions, sometimes being referred to as simply "Giovanni and Annabella"."Tis Pity Shes a Whore" tells the tale of an incestuous love between Giovanni and his sister Annabella that ends in disaster and death. Set in Parma, Italy, the story takes place against a background of lust, vengeance, and greed that serves as a critique of contemporary culture and morality. The play exhibits an eloquent and glowing sympathy for the lovers, despite the unlawful nature of their union.

"Tío Vania" es un drama del escritor y dramaturgo ruso Antón Chéjov publicada en 1899 y considerada por muchos su obra cumbre. Su primera gran presentación fue en 1900 bajo la dirección de Konstantín Stanislavski."Tio Vania" es unica entre las obras capitales de Chejov porque es esencialmente una extensa reconstruccion de una obra publicada una decada antes: "Demonio del bosque". Dilucidando sobre las revisiones especificas redujo a los personajes de dos docenas a nueve, cambiando el climatico suicidio del demonio del bosque en un famoso y frustrado homicidio del Tio Vania, y alterando el original final feliz en uno mas problematico.La obra fue publicada en 1899, pero es dificil determinar cuando la obra estuvo originalmente terminada, o cuando tuvo lugar el proceso de revision. En "Tio Vania" Chejov refleja el apocalipsis interior de un puñado de destinos humanos, la manera peculiar en que el tiempo se instala en nuestro interior y como el tedioso transcurrir de los dias derrumba esperanzas y hasta justificaciones de vida. La obra muestra la decadencia de la sociedad de la epoca. La accion se desarrolla en la antigua casa de campo de una familia aristocratica venida a menos. Todos los personajes se replantean su lugar en el mundo ante la llegada del profesor Serebriakov y su hermosa esposa, Elena.

"Timon of Athens" is the story of Shakespeares sharp satire on wealth, greed and betrayal, which was probably written around 16051606.Timon of Athens is a man who enjoys to please his friends and he does this by lavishing gifts on them. His friends rush to gain his favour. They buy him small gifts and he repays them with big gifts. He ignores the warnings about false friends from the philosopher Apemantus and his extravagance catches up with him in the end and he is faced with unpaid bills. His friends ignore his requests for help. He sends invitations to the Athenians to a banquet and uses the occasion to berate them for being false and he then leaves Athens. Timon then discovers gold and becomes rich once again and befriends General Alcibiades who has also been treated badly by the Athenians. He provides the money for the General to wage war against the Athenians and seek revenge for their falseness.

El Teatro Independiente del Magisterio, luego llamado Tim Teatro, fue un grupo de teatro independiente que desarrolló una intensa labor entre 1958 y 1976. Lo fundaron formalmente en Rosario, jóvenes de entre dieciseis y veinte años, liderados por Carlos E. Mathus, quien seria siempre el director del grupo. En 1960 el TIM inauguro su sala, donde tambien funcionaron una escuela de teatro y un cineclub. En 1966, migro a Buenos Aires, donde continuo trabajando y luego de presentarse invitado en el VIII Festival Internacional de Teatro de Nancy, Francia, produjo uno de los exitos mayores del teatro argentino, tanto a nivel nacional como internacional: La leccion de anatomia. El TIM fue siempre considerado un teatro de vanguardia. Sus postulados teatrales, inspirados por su director, iban en contra del naturalismo imperante y de muchos conceptos tradicionales del teatro. Sostenia que todos los codigos de comunicacion presentes en el teatro estaban a la par del texto, de modo que no reconocia un origen literario para el teatro. En la interpretacion, los actores del TIM confiaban mas en las imagenes, en los ritmos del habla y en la expresion corporal que en las motivaciones interiores. En sus obras, Mathus y su equipo desecharon las lineas argumentales y todos los rasgos anecdoticos de la puesta en escena. Cuestionaron los mensajes explicitos y hasta las lineas argumentales, prefiriendo presentar escenas sueltas e inconclusas, que el espectador debia completar y secuenciar en su mente. Este libro es la historia del TIM narrada por una de sus protagonistas y presenta un testimonio de la trayectoria del grupo, asi como una exposicion de sus ideas, algunas de las cuales aun hoy desafian ciertas concepciones del teatro.

Ever since the signing of the Armistice in 1918, theatre has played an important part in reflecting the experience of the war to end all wars. But on the Home Front, what role did those involved with British theatre play during those tumultuous four years and three months?Till the Boys Come Home salutes British theatre in wartime, when theatres became powerful generators for escapism, for stirring patriotism, for sharing experiences of loss and joy and for raising vast amounts of charity money.

Richly illustrated with original programmes, posters and ephemera, author and critic Roger Foss reveals a theatrical powerhouse, where all sections of the profession from grand Shakespearian knights to lowly concert party artistes were doing their bit, both at home and on the front line.

"Three Sisters", as all of Chekhovs most popular plays, was written near the end of his life, in 1900. "Three Sisters" was the first play that Chekhov wrote specifically for the Moscow Art Theatre, having experienced commercial success in his previous collaborations with the company, "The Seagull" and "Uncle Vanya".The play is set in a small, remote town dominated by an army base. The action takes place in the Prozorov family home over a span of several years. Born and bred in a thriving metropolis, the Prozorovs came to this small town when their father was made commander of the local army brigade. Now, the Prozorov family consists of four siblings: Olga, Masha, Andrei and Irina, the youngest. Three sisters and one brother.Both of the Prozorovs parents have died. The mother many years ago; the father precisely one year earlier, on Irinas 21st birthday. Irinas 22nd birthday is thus also the first anniversary of her fathers death. Old family friends and acquaintances drop in on the family to mark the occasion.Amongst the visitors is Colonel Vershinin, the new brigade commander, who has only recently arrived in town and becomes a spark of new potential, particularly for Masha. Each act of the play moves forward in time, charting five years in the life of the town, its soldiers, the Prozorov household and its three sisters.The characters of "Three Sisters" are outstanding examples of Chekhovian boredom, longing, and listlessness. The playwright portrays the sisters social aspirations with sensitivity and irony, using them as emblems of Russian middle-class pretensions and despair.

The novel is structured around the interwoven lives of its characters, each representing a distinct perspective on the themes of cultural heritage and personal transformation. Shirley employs a lyrical prose style, rich with symbolism and vivid imagery, reminiscent of postmodern literature, while still grounding the narrative in realistic dialogue and relatable scenarios.

Arthur Shirley, a writer of diverse background and experience, draws on his own life experiences as a member of a multicultural community.
