The Mysterious Identity of William Shakespeare Literature

Qty
Hardback Illustrated 0750943742
Published Price £20.00 Our Price £8.99
Redressing the evidence for the identity of the author of Shakespeare's works, this study argues that one man with such a breadth of knowledge as displayed in Shakespeare's plays could not also possess the relevant crowd-pleasing theatrical sense, and that there must be more than one figure behind the writing.

Paperback 0304368210
Published Price £16.99 Our Price £7.99
Beginning with Beowulf and ending with Seamus Heaney's translation of the same epic in 1999, Peter Conrad's 'brilliant impressionistic survey' (The Sunday Times) spans 1200 years of English literature. Conrad's method is not encyclopedic: instead, he presents a personal interpretation of the history through an emphasis on the continuity of literary forms and on the way in which major figures transform the tradition. Literature is seen as a collaborative activity, marrying the past and present and generating the future.

This anthology of 'Oriental' tales focuses on a period following the medieval and early modern conflicts between Christianity and Islam, but before the rise of western imperialism in the East. Designed as a companion volume to Fabulous Orients: Fictions of the East in England 1662-1785 (2005), the anthology reprints several stories that were enormously popular in the 18th century, including tales from sequences such as Galland's Arabian Nights Entertainments, pseudo-oriental tales, travels, history and letter fictions.

The only manuscripts to survive that led to the production of one of William Blake's illuminated books are those relating to Songs of Innocence and Experience. Here, a foremost authority on Blake's manuscripts and illuminated printing details the evolution of this masterwork and the entire process of its production, from early drafts in the Manuscript Notebook and An Island in the Moon to colour printing. The book contains a selection of reproductions from the manuscripts and colour plates from the early editions of the Songs.
