Beschreibung

SIGNED. Purchased New. First Edition. First printing with complete 10 number line ending in 1. Signed by Dominic Dromgoole on the title page. The unread book is tight and square with solid hinges, sharp tips and clean boards. Spine ends faintly creased. Textblock is clean with no writing, bookplate or markings and not BCE, ex-library or remaindered. Black pin-head size dot on top fore-edges. B&W and color photos. The dust jacket is unclipped ($27.00) and Fine. Protected in a new Brodart Mylar cover. To mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare?s death, Dominic Dromgoole, Artistic Director of the Globe, had an insanely ambitious idea: to take Hamlet to every country on the planet. Over two years, Dromgoole and the Globe players toured all seven continents performing Hamlet in sweltering deserts, grand palaces, and heaving marketplaces - despite food poisoning in Mexico, an Ebola epidemic in West Africa and political upheaval in Ukraine. They would fly in, hastily assemble their set, unpack props and costumes, shake hands with officials, give interviews to the local press, and mount the stage for two and a half hours of brooding soliloquies, madcap humor, impulsive stabbing, feigned and real madness, swordplay, and murder. Then after a quickly disassembling and packing, they were off to the next country.? ?Hamlet: Globe to Globe? tells the fascinating story of this unprecedented theatrical adventure. We see what the Danish prince means to the students of Cambodia, the effect of Polonius on the citizens of the tiny African nation of Djibouti, and how a sixteenth-century play can touch the lives of Syrian refugees. ? New York Times.

Inhaltsangabe

Two years, 190,000 miles, 197 countries, one play. For the 450th anniversary of Shakespeare�s birth the Globe Theatre in London undertook an unparalleled journey to share Hamlet with the entire world. The tour was the brainchild of Dominic Dromgoole, artistic director of the Globe, and in Hamlet Globe to Globe, Dromgoole takes readers along with him on this wildly ambitious expedition.

From performing in sweltering deserts, capital and remote cities, heaving marketplaces and on Pacific islands, and despite food poisoning in Mexico, the threat of ambush in Somaliland, an Ebola epidemic in West Africa, and political upheaval in Ukraine, the Globe�s players tirelessly pushed on. They carried their own props, instruments, and costumes throughout the journey, and could construct an entire set in less than two hours. Dromgoole introduces this impressive cast of sturdy souls, recounting the highs and lows of their tour, paying witness to Shakespeare�s power to transcend borders and bring the world closer together.

Dromgoole also shows us the world through the prism of Shakespeare and why, in its mystery, it resonates so widely�how a sixteenth-century play can touch the lives of men and women in Sudan, citizens of Beijing, and Syrian refugees alike. Through the lens of this epic theatrical journey, Dromgoole gleans new insight into Shakespeare�s masterpiece, exploring the play�s history, its meaning, and its pleasures, and offering a dramatic and heartfelt testament to Shakespeare�s enduring presence on the modern stage.. NOTA: El libro no est� en espa�ol, sino en ingl�s.
