Romancing the Bard offers a look at the Stratford Festival in its first fifty years as it developed from a bold venture driven by vision of a handful of eager enthusiasts to its present status as a multi-million dollar cultural and commercial enterprise. With profiles of Stratford personalities from founder Tyrone Guthrie to current artistic director Richard Monette, it provides glimpses of intrigue and conflict both offstage and on.

The book traces the development of a distinctive Canadian acting style, the soaring costs of production and design, the conflict between artists and moneymen, the external image promoted by publicists or imposed by critics and the changing mandate as the Festival assumes an increasingly populist character.

This is a celebration of a uniquely successful artistic enterprise, and focuses on some of the Festival’s finest productions. Illustrated with photographs from the Festival archives.

This special bundle contains seven books that detail Canada’s long and storied history in the performing arts. We learn about Canada’s early Hollywood celebrity movie stars; Canadians’ vast contributions to successful international stage musicals; the story of The Grand, a famous theatre in London, Ontario; reminiscences from the early days of radio; the history of the renowned Stratford Festival; and a lavish history of the famous National Ballet of Canada. Canada’s performing artists blossomed in the twentieth century, and you can learn all about it here.

This title contains the text of the 1996 English Arbitration Act, together with a commentary by the authors conveniently set out in footnotes on a section by section basis - all translated into French, German and Spanish and arranged in the same way for easy access.

In combination the authors were uniquely placed to undertake this wok as each of them was closely involved with the development of different aspects of the legislation at different stages.

This is the first publication containing the text of the Act and a detailed commentary in languages other than English, and it presents an invaluable opportunity for the reader to study this complex and important legislation in his or her own language.

Although the legislation was enacted in June 1996 it did not come into force until1 3 1 January 1997. Unlike other materials published or prepared before the Act was commenced, this book is updated to January 1998. Accordingly, it takes account of the very significant last minute decision to remove the distinction between international and domestic arbitration from English law; this decision was carried out by not implementing sections 85 to 87 of the Act.

The translations were prepared by arbitration experts from the relevant countries under the guidance of world-renowned leaders in the field. The French version of the Act was undertaken by a team assembled by Johnny Veeder Q.C. supervised by Professors Fouchard and Jarrosson and the French vemion of the Notes by Nigel Blackaby and Stewart Shackleton; the German version of the Act and Notes by Florian Drinhausen supervised by Professor K-H. Böckstiegel; and the Spanish version of the Act and Notes by Gonzalo Stampa supervised by Professor Bernardo Crermades.

This book will be of interest to arbitration practitioners and students in English, French, German and Spanish-speaking countries

India has a long-standing tradition of dispute resolution through arbitration, with arbitral-type regulations going back to the eighteenth century. Today, amendments to the 1996 Indian Arbitration Act, a steady evolution of case law and new arbitral institutions position India’s vibrant system once more at the forefront of international commercial dispute resolution. In this handbook, over forty members of the international arbitration community in India and beyond offer authoritative perspectives and insights into topics on arbitration that matter in India. International arbitration practitioners, Indian practitioners, and scholars have combined efforts to produce a practical and informative guide on the subject.

Among numerous notable features, the contributors provide detailed analysis and description of such aspects of arbitration as the following, with a focus on the Indian context:

Practical features include checklists for drafting arbitration clauses and a comparative chart of major commercial arbitration rules applicable to India. Also included is a comparative analysis of arbitral regimes in India, Singapore and England; chapters on the India Model Bilateral Investment Treaty and ISDS reforms; a special section on the enforcement of foreign awards; a section on the drafting of the award guided by leading arbitrators and stakeholders and a review of the new 2021 ICC Rules.

For foreign counsel and arbitrators with arbitrations in India, this complete and up-to-date analysis provides guidelines for practitioners, corporate counsel, and judges on considerations to be borne in mind with respect to arbitration with an Indian nexus and whilst seeking enforcement and execution of an arbitral award in India. It will prove an effective tool for students and others in understanding and navigating the particularities and peculiarities of India’s system of domestic and international commercial arbitration.
