Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: New. From long-haired 'Fleshly Poets' to intense, 'ultra pre-Raphaelite' artists, few stylistic movements in the history of art and literature have provoked the imagination and indignation of British playwrights as much as the Aesthetic Movement.During an intense and short-lived period from 1877 to 1881, the London stage saw fierce competition as playwrights and theatre managers raced to capture the zeitgeist, capitalizing on the unorthodox, eccentric and highly theatrical proponents of the Aesthetic Movement. The 'quite too utterly utter' Apostles of this new school were satirized to such an extent that the Illustrated London News (1881) complained that the London stage was 'thickly sown over with a crop of lilies and sunflowers', with 'aesthetes in every burlesque and comic opera produced'. This edited volume brings the four key plays satirizing the Aesthetic Movement together for the first time in an easily accessible format, allowing scholars and students to discover their secrets:The Grasshopper by John Hollingshead (Gaiety Theatre, 1877)Where's The Cat? by James Albery (Criterion, 1880)The Colonel by F.C. Burnand (Prince of Wales's Theatre, 1881) Patience by W.S. Gilbert (Opera Comique/Savoy, 1881)Including a brief introduction by Dr. Devon Cox, providing background and context to the dynamic, symbiotic relationship between the Aesthetic Movement and the British stage, and complete with biographical notes and an introduction to each play, Aesthetic Movement Satire: A Dramatic Anthology shines a light on this explosive flashpoint in British Theatre.

This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian theatre and the social dramas that captivated audiences of the time. The story unfolds in the drawing room of a struggling gentleman, Digby Grant, whose financial woes are exacerbated by his two daughters, Lottie and Ida. The sisters, known as "Two Roses," are beautiful and charming but also headstrong and demanding. Grantââ â¢s desperate attempts to marry them off to wealthy suitors, in order to secure his own financial future, highlight the stark realities of class and gender expectations in Victorian England. The author masterfully blends humor and pathos as he explores the complexities of love, money, and social mobility. Through a cast of memorable characters, including the blind but insightful Caleb Deecie and the boisterous dry-goods salesman Mr. Jenkins, the book satirizes the conventions of Victorian society, exposing the hypocrisy and absurdity of its social hierarchies. Ultimately, the book's insights into the motivations and anxieties of Victorian society offer a rich and revealing portrait of a world on the cusp of change, a world where the pursuit of wealth and status often overshadowed deeper human needs and desires. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
