The Lost Letters of William Shakespeare

The Lost Letters of William Shakespeare

Terry Tamminen

Shakespeare House Press
2018
sidottu
Could a treasure trove of 400-year-old letters constitute a previously unknown "diary" written by William Shakespeare? After 25 years of research, we believe the astonishing answer is yes. We learn that Shakespeare left home bound for the New World, where he hoped to restore is family's fortunes, but knowing how risky the journey would be, he wanted to create a record for his two-year-old son (Hamnet) so that, one day, Hamnet would know why his father left home (especially in case Shakespeare was unable to return). Although he never made it to North American shores, these letters uncover the truth about the earliest pilgrims and reveal that Shakespeare was kept closer to home to fight in a pivotal battle for England against Spain (and that he used his theatrical talents to help win it). Overall, these remarkable letters represent a wealth of as-yet-undiscovered knowledge about Shakespeare's relationships, personality, and career as he carves out his place in the chaotic world of 16th-century London, describing vibrant details from his arrival in London to the premiere of Titus Andronicus, his first play to be staged.In 1989 I was an actor and performed a one-man play about the life of William Shakespeare in London. "Miss B," an elderly woman who had seen the play more than once, was apparently sufficiently impressed by my impersonation of the Bard that she offered to show me some old, never-published letters that she believed were written by William Shakespeare. Although I was initially skeptical, it was an offer too good to pass up and, to be honest, as a struggling actor in those days, I didn't have anything better to do with my time We met almost daily for several weeks and what I discovered began to unravel almost everything I thought I knew about the great poet and playwright.The Prologue to The Lost Letters of William Shakespeare: The Undiscovered Diary of his Strange Eventful Life and Loves(publication Fall 2017) describes our meetings, more about my mysterious benefactor, and how I spent over two decades since then decoding and researching what these letters had to say.In brief, Shakespeare left his hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon in 1586 as a jack-of-all-trades for a troupe of traveling players. His goal was to get to London for one very astonishing reason in the hope of restoring his family's honor and finances. He wrote the letters to his friend John Combe, but intended them as a record of his journey, including the whys and wherefores, so that his son, Hamnet (two years old in 1586) would know his father in the event he was unable to return. Because he wanted to "report his cause aright," his letters are remarkably detailed and intimate.Although Hamnet never apparently saw these letters (and Shakespeare did return home) we are the beneficiaries of his observations of life in Elizabethan England; first-hand secrets about the rulers of the land (and those who sought to rule); his participation in the war with Spain that could have changed history (and why we would be speaking Spanish in America today, among other alternate possible outcomes); bitter truths about his father, wife, and patrons; identities revealed of a Dark Lady and a heroic lady loved and lost.The Lost Letters of William Shakespeare are updated for the modern reader and based on a very true story

From Josh Tickell, one of America’s most celebrated documentary filmmakers, comes a “fascinating, easy-to-follow blueprint for how eating in ways that nourish and regenerate the soil can not only help reverse global warming, but also bring greater vitality to our lives” (Wolfgang Puck). “A must read for anyone committed to healing our bodies and our Earth” (Deepak Chopra), Kiss the Ground explains an incredible truth: by changing our diets to a soil-nourishing, regenerative agriculture diet, we can reverse global warming, harvest healthy, abundant food, and eliminate the poisonous substances that are harming our children, pets, bodies, and ultimately our planet. This “richly visual” (Kirkus Reviews) look at the impact of an underappreciated but essential resource—the very ground that feeds us—features fascinating and accessible interviews with celebrity chefs, ranchers, farmers, and top scientists. Kiss the Ground teaches you how to become an agent in humanity’s single most important and time-sensitive mission: reverse climate change and effectively save the world—all through the choices you make in how and what to eat. Also a full-length documentary executive produced by Leonardo DiCaprio and narrated by Woody Harrelson, “Kiss the Ground both informs and inspires” (Marianne Williamson, #1 New York Times bestselling author).

James Hilton's book "Terry" is about a little kid named Terry O'Keefe who grows up in a tiny mining town in northern England in the early 20th century. In the novel, Terry's journey through adolescence's difficulties and search for his place in the world are explored. The vivid descriptions Hilton provides of life in a working-class neighborhood during this time period and the challenges faced by families who depended on the coal mines for their livelihoods define the novel. In addition, Hilton explores the intricate relationships among the town residents and their struggles to uphold a sense of community in the face of adversity. At its core, "Terry" is a tale of optimism and resilience, as Terry learns to deal with the difficulties presented by his surroundings and uncover his own personal talents.

Terry Riley's in C

Terry Riley's in C

Carl Robert

Oxford University Press Inc
2009
sidottu
Unquestionably the founding work of minimalism in musical composition, Terry Riley's In C (1964) challenges the standards of imagination, intellect, and musical ingenuity to which "classical" music is held. Only one page of score in length, it contains neither specified instrumentation nor parts. Its fifty-three motives are compact, presented without any counterpoint or evident form. The composer gave only spare instructions and no tempo. And he assigned the work a title that's laconic in the extreme. At the same moment of its composition, Elliott Carter was working on his Concerto for Piano, a work Stravinsky was to hail as a masterpiece. Having almost completed Laborinthus II, Luciano Berio would soon start the Sinfonia. Karlheinz Stockhausen had just finished Momente. In context of these other works, and of the myriad of compositional styles and trends which preceded them, In C stands the whole idea of musical "progress" on its head. Forty years later, In C continues to receive regular performances every year by professionals, students, and amateurs, and has had numerous recordings since its 1968 LP premiere. Welcoming performers from a vast range of practices and traditions, from classical to rock to jazz to non-Western, these recordings range from the Chinese Film Orchestra of Shanghai - on traditional Chinese instruments - to the Hungarian 'European Music Project' group, joined by two electronica DJs manipulating the Pulse. In C rouses audiences while all the while projecting an inner serenity that suggests Cage's definition of music's purpose — "to sober and quiet the mind, thus making it susceptible to divine influence." Setting the stage for a most intriguing journey into the world of minimalism, Robert Carl's Terry Riley's In C argues that the work holds its place in the canon because of the very challenges it presents to "classical" music. He examines In C in the context of its era, its grounding in aesthetic practices and assumptions, its process of composition, presentation, recording, and dissemination. By examining the work's significance through discussion with performers, composers, theorists, and critics, Robert Carl explores how the work's emerging performance practice has influenced our very ideas of what constitutes art music in the 21st century.

"Finding one particular thing at one particular time, then letting a world accumulate around it, in rough contingency, nothing quite fitting or not fitting." This is how Dave Hickey describes the work of artist and singer-songwriter Terry Allen, who creates works that proliferate into a constellation of genres as he revisits and revises his original inspirations. A painting may lead to a sculpture, which morphs into a song that takes on many voices and becomes a theatre piece or video installation. Yet, in Allen's endlessly evolving art, "nothing that you might actually see in the world is depicted, nothing is even surreal, because surrealism infers a starting point in reality. The songs are sung by disembodied voices. The stories are told by voices with regional accents. The drawings are drawn because otherwise we could not see what they are about, so they are better read as heraldry, or glyphs, or typologies than anything like pictures."Terry Allen is the first comprehensive retrospective of this prolific artist's work. It opens with a previously unpublished celebration of Allen by Dave Hickey, then covers his three largest and most important series-JUAREZ, with critical commentary by Dave Hickey; RING, with commentary by Marcia Tucker; and YOUTH IN ASIA, with an interview of Terry Allen and commentary by Dave Hickey. It also explores Allen's other significant visual works-installations, public works and bronzes, and sculpture and works on paper. Highlighting an equally important part of the artist's oeuvre, Michael Ventura provides an insightful discussion of Allen's music. More than two hundred color and black-and-white images flow in and around the texts, providing a sweeping visual gallery of Allen's work in which, as Hickey observes, "not only are there no happy endings. There are no endings."
