Summary

The lovers of the fifth street" is filled with far-fetched repeated figures of metaphor and simile; though there are few direct references to some feasible modern issues that one can witness in our world, the main focus has been yet given to the use of figurative language; by doing so, the readers won't be bothered and confused; their minds will stay alerted and sensitive towards the hidden concepts while they play joyfully through the lines.
The poetry has been built upon a modern scenery; the symbol of modernity (New York) is presented with a mixture of different concepts that reminds us all of the different facets of "vividness": art, culture and the coffeeshop dynamic culture.
Since this book is the second volume of the "New York Winter Poetry Trilogy" the same atmosphere had to be reminded to the audience; but this time there has been a shift in the locations of events; new notions have been also added as the story line moves forward; the light has been shed on different and important slants; matters of racism, international interdisciplinary discriminations and the metamorphosis of human abstruse and complex relations; "lovers of the fifth street" is now a more comprehensive work; a combination of social, humanitarian and international concerns.

    Frederick Ignatius Cowles was born in 1900 in Cambridge, England. 
     
    This unfamiliar name is one of the gems of English supernatural fiction as well as several other works of travelogues, history, folklore, and children's books.  
     
    When his supernatural short stories, and some are very short indeed, were first published they were compared to the works of M R James and EF Benson, yet unlike those two authors he fell, unfairly, into obscurity. 
     
    In all he wrote perhaps 60 short stories with weird and supernatural themes. 
     
    Frederick Cowles died in 1948 although some accounts offer that it was 1949.

  • Dynamics of Distancing in Nigerian Drama - A Functional Approach to Metatheatre - cover

    Dynamics of Distancing in...

    Nadia Anwar presents a compelling reading framework for the study and analysis of selected post-independence Nigerian dramas, using the conceptual parameters of metatheatre, a theatrical strategy which foregrounds the process of play-making by breaking the dramatic illusion. She argues that distancing, as a function of metatheatre, creates a balanced theatrical experience and environment in terms of the emotive and cognitive levels of reception of a particular performance. 
    
    Anwar's book is the first in-depth study of the concept of metatheatre with reference to Nigerian drama including Wole Soyinka's Death and the King's Horseman (1975) and King Baabu (2002), Ola Rotimi's Kurunmi (1971) and Hopes of the Living Dead (1988), Femi Osofisan's The Chattering and the Song (1977) and Women of Owu (2006), Esiaba Irobi's Hangmen Also Die (1989), and Stella 'Dia Oyedepo's A Play That Was Never to Be (1998). 
    
    The perspectives of Bertolt Brecht (1936), Thomas J. Scheff (1963), and other theoreticians of dramatic distancing and metatheatre are used in the analyses and, where required, challenged through appropriate contextual and theoretical adjustments. 
    
    The book is the first attempt to illustrate how Brechtian approach to the display and generation of emotions can be revised through Scheff's model of emotional balance.

    Actioning is one of the most widely used rehearsal techniques for actors. It helps bring clarity to every moment or thought in the text, energising rehearsals and bringing performances to life.
    Actioning will enable you to discover and unlock newfound energy, range, variety and clarity of body and voice, by:
    
    
    - Interrogating the text and making initial action verb choices
    - Playing your chosen actions, both verbally and physically
    - Maintaining an imaginative and emotional connection with each moment
    - Signposting each thought to your scene partner
    From the publishers of the internationally successful Actions: The Actors' Thesaurus, this is the first in-depth exploration of Actioning for student actors, those who train them, and professionals working in the industry, whether they're brand new to the technique or have been practising it for years.
    The book draws on concepts from Stanislavsky, using sample scenes from classic plays such as The Seagull and The Importance of Being Earnest, as well as contemporary pieces, and is filled with exercises to demonstrate the technique at work.
    Actioning - and How to Do It is the indispensable companion to this vital component in every actor's toolkit.
