    Thresholds of accusation : law and colonial order in Canada (2023)

    Series Statement: Cambridge historical studies in American law and society
    Content: This critical socio-legal history probes pretrial accusations through which colonial criminal law forged social orders for settler-colonialism across western Canada, focusing on Alberta, 1874-1884. Following military intelligence, a Northwest Mounted Police force was established to compel Dominion law. That force began by deploying accusatory theatres to receive information about crimes, arrest suspects, and decide via preliminary examination who to send to trial. George Pavlich draws on exemplary performances of colonial accusation to show how police officers and justices of the peace translated local social lore into criminal law. These performances reflected intersecting powers of sovereignty, disciplinarily, and biopolitics; they held accused individuals legally culpable for crimes and obscured social upheavals that settlers brought. Reflecting on colonial legacies within today's vast and unequal criminalizing institutions, this book proposes that we seek new forms of accusation and legality, learning from Indigenous laws that tackle individual and collective responsibilities for societal disquiet.

    Series Statement: Theatre and performance theory
    Content: Theatre in Market Economies explores the complex relationship between theatre and the market economy since the 1990s. Bringing together research from the arts and social sciences, the book proposes that theatre has increasingly taken up the mission of the 'mixed economy' by seeking to combine economic efficiency with social security while promoting liberal democracy. McKinnie situates this analysis within a wider context, in which the welfare state's tools have been used to regulate, ever more closely, the lives of citizens rather than the operations of markets. In the process, the book invites us to think in new ways about longstanding economic and political problems in and through the theatre: the nature of industry, productivity, citizenship, security and economic confidence. Theatre in Market Economies depicts a theatre that is not only a familiar cultural institution but is, in unexpected and often ambiguous ways, an exemplary political-economic one as well.

    Poetry on Stage : The Theatre of the Italian Neo-Avant-Garde (2020)

    Series Statement: Toronto Italian Studies
    Content: Poetry on Stage focuses on exchanges between the writers of the Italian neo-avant-garde with the actors, directors, and playwrights of the Nuovo Teatro. The book sheds light on a forgotten chapter of twentieth-century Italian literature, arguing that the theatre was the ideal incubator for stylistic and linguistic experiments and a means through which authors could establish direct contact with their audience and verify solutions to the practical and theoretical problems raised by their stances in politics and poetics. A robust analysis of a number of exemplary texts grounds these issues in the plays and poems produced at the time and connects them with the experimentations subsequently carried out by some of the same artists. In-depth interviews with four of the most influential figures in the field – critic Valentina Valentini, actor and director Pippo Di Marca, author Giuliano Scabia, and the late poet Nanni Balestrini – conclude the volume, providing invaluable first-hand testimony that brings to life the people and controversies discussed.

    Series Statement: Theatron 37
    Note: Description based upon print version of record , Main description: Alongside Wieland Wagner, Walter Felsenstein (1901-1975) was the most important opera director of the early post-war period in Germany. To this day, the dramaturgic preparation of his productions at the Komische Oper in East Berlin can justly claim exemplary status. With despotic thoroughness he subjected the works of the operatic canon to his ideal of strict causality in the development of the plots. With reference to central productions and drawing upon copious production notes, adaptations, and scenarios, this appreciation sets out to reconstruct Felsenstein's concept of 'realistic music theatre' without glossing over the internal contradictions that it displayed , Main description: Walter Felsenstein (1901-1975) war neben Wieland Wagner der bedeutendste Opernregisseur der frühen Nachkriegszeit. Die dramaturgische Vorbereitung seiner Inszenierungen an der Berliner Komischen Oper ist bis heute vorbildhaft geblieben. Mit despotischer Gründlichkeit unterwarf er die Werke der Opernliteratur seinem Ideal einer streng kausal organisierten Handlung. Anhand exemplarischer Inszenierungen und mit Hilfe erhaltener Regiebücher, Bearbeitungen, Notate oder Szenarien rekonstruiert dieses Buch Felsensteins von inneren Widersprüchen nicht freies Theaterkonzept eines "realistischen Musiktheaters"

    Series Statement: Cambridge companions to literature
    Content: The power of Shakespeare's complex language - his linguistic playfulness, poetic diction and dramatic dialogue - inspires and challenges students, teachers, actors and theatre-goers across the globe. It has iconic status and enormous resonance, even as language change and the distance of time render it more opaque and difficult. The Cambridge Companion to Shakespeare's Language provides important contexts for understanding Shakespeare's experiments with language and offers accessible approaches to engaging with it directly and pleasurably. Incorporating both practical analysis and exemplary readings of Shakespearean passages, it covers elements of style, metre, speech action and dialogue; examines the shaping contexts of rhetorical education and social language; test-drives newly available digital methodologies and technologies; and considers Shakespeare's language in relation to performance, translation and popular culture. The Companion explains the present state of understanding while identifying opportunities for fresh discovery, leaving students equipped to ask productive questions and try out innovative methods
