The Collected Works of John Ford: Volume IV de Brian Vickers

The Collected Works of John Ford: Volume IV: Oxford English Texts

Editat de Brian Vickers
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 iul 2023
Volume IV of the Collected Works of John Ford is the first of two volumes in the series to contain his sole-authored plays. It contains three of his most celebrated plays: 'Tis Pity She's a Whore (1622), The Lovers' Melancholy (1628), and The Broken Heart (1629), as well as the less well-known The Queen (1629). The volume opens with a general introduction to Ford's work as a sole author by Sir Brian Vickers and each play is given a detailed introduction emphasizing Ford's linguistic creativity and his effective use of the indoor private theatres. Authoritative old-spelling texts, freshly edited from the original quartos with full textual collations, are accompanied by a full commentary on all aspects of the plays, from archaic or obsolete words to classical allusions and historical references to people, places, and social customs.

Recenzii

The Collected Works of John Ford is shaping up to be a magnificent achievement. Its annotation is outstanding, the introductions are comprehensive, and the computer-aided corpus linguistics used for attribution is state of the art.
Volume II offers a generous, detailed, and scholarly introduction to Volume III, which is a phenomenal resource in its own right ... The introductions are concise but comprehensive, giving readers factual information about original date of composition, performance, and publication, sources, generic conventions, and the main themes and concerns explored in the plays. The texts of the plays are generously laid out and accompanied by a level of textual and commentary notes in-keeping with the priorities of a hard back, old-spelling edition that is primarily aimed at fellow scholars and advanced students ... [a] magnificent project.
At their strongest, then, I valued the two new volumes of the Collected Works for their willingness to allow contingency, to acknowledge openness, and to encourage attention to the plays themselves, which together are ample encouragements in the anticipation of Volumes IV and V still to come.
