He gives examples of tragic writing from a wide variety of dramatic literatures and relates theoretical writings on tragedy and the tragedies that have been contemporaneous with them. Free reference is made to critics from Aristotle to these of the present. Special stress is laid on the tragedies of the Greeks, of Renaissance writers and of our immediate contemporaries, notably Harold Pinter and Tom Stoppard.

Leading Shakespeare scholars from around the world gathered at the First World Shakespeare Congress held in Vancouver in August 1971. This volume presents a carefully selected edition of twenty of the papers presented at the Congress, including all available papers in the plenary sessions, a few of the pecial sessions papers, ''an address at a banquet,'' and the reports of the chairmen of the Investigative Committees. The contributors focus on eight general themes: C. Walter Hodges and Herbert Berry on the Elizabethan playhouse; M.C. Bradbrook, Charlton Hinman, and Fredson Bowers on text and canon; Jonas A. Barish and G.R. Hibbard on verse and prose; Norman Rabkin on critical approaches to Shakespeare; David Bevington and Wolfgang Clemen on Shakespeare and his Elizabethan contemporaries; H.D.F. Kitto and Michel Grivelet on Shakespeare and the dramatists of other ages; Jean Jacquiot and R.W. Ingram on Shakespeare and other arts, and Grigori Kozintsev and Bernard Beckerman on Shakespeare in theatre and film in the twentieth century. Three papers presented at special sessions are included: Jill Levenson on the silences in King Lear; Robert Wrimann on Shakespeare''s wordplay; and John C. Meagher on editorial annotation in relation to a few problems in King Lear. The high level of scholarship and remarkable diversity of approach in Shakespeare studies are clearly demonstrated in this collection.

Twelfth Night and Shakespearian Comedy

Professor Leech examines here the changing nature of Shakespeare''s comic art, from its early forms in such plays as The Comedy of Errors and The Two Gentlemen of Verona, where delight predominates, to later developments in Measure for Measure and The Winter''s Tale, where elements of the playwright''s tragic vision intrude to prevent the effect from being wholly comic. He illuminates the nature of comedy not by considering it as an isolated genre, but by defininig its relationship to tragedy and by providing a perceptive analysis of the comic characters and they contrast with tragic forms and as they relate to the conventions of the Elizabethan comic theatre. Twelfth Night is seen as a key part in the sequence of Shakespeariean comedies, for in it, while delight is at its height, there are disturbing hints of a transience and fragility that are resolved with the more sober and penetrating view of human nature found in the later comedies. This book is based on lectures delivered from the stage of the Neptune Theatre, Halifax, as part of a programme arranged by Dalhousie University and the Theatre to mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare''s birth.
