Abstract:
Albeit Othello’s loyal service to Venice is clear, ramifications of the Blackamoor in the text has called upon a continuous scholarship of interest over the last two decades. One begins to wonder, whether the Blackamoor’s presence in a Venetian setting serves a purpose to the English readership? If so, to what extent did Shakespeare refine the representation of a Moor to draw upon readership? How does Iago serve as a propagandist who articulates and fuels concerns for the seventeenth-century version of Islamophobia? As such, these significant questions have led to the const

This article reports on a corpus stylistic study of the language of soliloquies in Shakespeare’s plays. Literary corpus stylistics can use corpus linguistic methods to test claims made by literary critics and identify hitherto unnoticed features. Existing literary studies of soliloquies tend to define and classify them, to trace the history of the form or to offer literary appreciation; yet they pay surprisingly little attention to the language which characterises soliloquies. By creating a soliloquy corpus and a dialogue corpus from 37 Shakespeare plays, and comparing the former against the l

Abstract:
Ever since Shakespeare had sent a fat king to go a progress through the guts of a lean beggar [31] human internal organs started to serve as a textual locus in fiction and non-fiction, or a subject in a possible world. Their presentation varies depending upon the purpose, the form and the style of writing, semiotic modalities of their exposition, as well as the epistemological development of knowledge. These varieties come under the umbrella property known as “the possibility of the impossible” [12]. In such possible world a cat can walk in the brain as if it were his apartments [3], or togeth

Lady Macbeth, the ambitious wife of the title character of the Scottish tragedy of W. Shakespeare, became a household name. Her name is represented in collective consciousness both as a symbol of insidiousness and as a reminder of the torments of a guilty conscience. Lady Macbeth entered the world culture, as an image of a strong and aggressive woman, who is ready for a conscious violation of ethical norms and rises even against the laws of her nature. N. S.

This article is a study of early literary theory and practice in Renaissance England, which focuses specifically on Shakespeare’s language use. The end of the sixteenth century in England experienced a linguistic revolution as Latin was gradually replaced by vernacular English. Renaissance rhetoricians such as George Puttenham and Thomas Wilson patriotically argued that English was capable of employing figures of speech to express complex ideas. Yet in this period the vernacular was in a process of formation, demonstrated by Richard Mulcaster’s Elementarie (1582). He argued for the expansion o

AbstractThis essay examines King Lear's belief that the dead Cordelia revives or resuscitates near the very end of the play. This quasi-resurrection, which occurs only in the First Folio (1623), has divided critics into those who regard the moment as mere delusion and others who see it as adumbrating a moment of blessed release. Following a survey of these "redemptionist" versus the predominant nihilist-oriented readings of the play, I examine the influential materialist interpretations offered by Stephen Greenblatt and Jonathan Dollimore.

Kirsten Hastrup: Theatre’s Space. An
 Analysis of the Stage in the World of
 Shakespeare
 In this article it is suggested that historically
 and structurally, Shakespeare’s theatre
 belongs to a liminal space, on the threshold
 of the city, and of order. This position makes
 it possible for the theatre to incorporate the
 contradictions of society. The stage itself is
 an empty space, ready to be impregnated by
 the imagination of both players and
 audience. The nature of illusion on stage is
 discussed, and it is argued that on stage

Abstract:
This study undertakes an analysis of Shakespeare’s Macbeth (1606) and its principal characters vis-à-vis their immediate appeal and identification with the Shakespearean audience during the first-ever performance of the play in the early years of the seventeenth century. The role of the witches (or the weird sisters) in orchestrating the destinies of the characters and also the events of the play by employing their astute and skillful use of language is a significant point of discussion in this study. In this regard, a discussion on the historical aspects of kingship and witchcraft in relation

Abstract:
This study creates a prediction model to identify which linguistic and extra-linguistic features influence pronoun choices in the plays of Shakespeare. In the English of Shakespeare’s time, the now-archaic distinction between you and thou persisted, and is usually reported as being determined by relative social status and personal closeness of speaker and addressee. But it remains to be determined whether statistical machine learning will support this traditional explanation. 23 features are investigated, having been selected from multiple linguistic areas, such as pragmatics, sociolinguistics

Abstract This article focuses on rhyme, specifically the extemporary rhyme that was a hallmark of early modern professional clowns and fools, and its contribution to the battle between sense and nonsense in King Lear. In the first half, I trace this rhyming tradition through Will Sommers, to Richard Tarlton, to Robert Armin, exploring the ‘rhyme and reason’ paradigm in this context, and considering the unique forms of interactive comedy that become possible when writers and performers exploit this technique.

ANAHIT MAKARYAN - STUDY OF INTERTEXTUAL MARKERS OF THE NOVEL “THE COLLECTOR” BY J. FOWLES The present paper aims at studying intertextuality as one of the basic means of structuring a text. Intertextual analysis of the novel “The Collector” by J. Fowles and the play “The Tempest” by W.Shakespeare make it possible to disclose the peculiarities of Fowles’ individual style. Linguopoetic, linguostylistic and intertextual analysis of the two literary works reveals the allusive character of the novel “the Colleoctor”, where the Shakespearean concepts of “beauty” and “ugliness” are associated with th

The present study aimed at sparking a discussion as to translation evaluation which is traditionally based on determinism. Translators usually translate what the author has written or what the author has said, based on the ostensible referential correspondence between words and meanings exerted by internal and external authorities without questioning these ostensible authorities- whether these authorities are in the forms of bilingual dictionaries or the translators’ knowledge and experience. However, translation process, unlike language, can be based on indeterminacy which is a part of episte

In this paper, I read Caryl Phillips’s 1997 post-colonial The Nature of Blood as a novel that exemplifies Michael Rothberg’s theory of “multidirectional memory.” Rothberg’s theory, which argues against the dominant competitive model of memory in the United States, asserts that memory is a “productive, intercultural dynamic” (Rothberg 3). In other words, memories of different groups of people, specifically African-Americans and Holocaust survivors in his essay, are intertwined and inform each other in a modern setting.

Humans are actors on the stage called earth.

However, in spite of a dearth of widespread support for church drama, more churches seem to utilise theatre and drama in their worships. It is assumed that while hearers sometimes struggle

(In memory of Chris Newell)With its title 'able', this issue called for articles and essays which explore ability from a disability perspective, rather than disability from an able-ist perspective.

This affirmation of abilities is characteristic of many of the articles and essays in this issue, particularly in the narrative accounts of lived experience. Another take on 'able' evident in the

All employ the concepts of legitimacy and illegitimacy to define what is and what is not permissible. Further, the creation of the illegitimate can occur in more or less legitimate ways; for example, through acts of consent, on the one hand; and force, on the other. Th
