1. Shakespeare Goes to Paris (Hardcover)
by John Pemble 
Price: USD 91.49
Dealer: Abebooks, Grand Eagle Retail
Description: ISBN10: 1852854529, ISBN13: 9781852854522, [publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, London] Hardcover Hardcover. It has sometimes been assumed that the difficulty of translating Shakespeare into French has meant that he has had little influence in France. Shakespeare Goes to Paris proves the opposite. Virtually unknown in France in his lifetime, and for well over a hundred years after his death, Shakespeare was discovered in the first half of the eighteenth century, as part of a growing French interest in England. Since then, Shakespeare's impact in France has been enormous. Writers, from Voltaire to Gide, found themsleves baffled, frustrated, mesmerised but overawed by a playwright who broke all the rules of French classical theatre and challenged the primacy of French culture. Attempts to tame and translate him alternated with uncritical idolisation, such as that of Berlioz and Hugo. Changing attitudes to Shakespeare have also been an index of French self-esteem, as John Pemble shows in his sparkingly written book This volume is the extraordinary story of the impact Shakespeare had on France. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. [Wilmington, DE, U.S.A.] [Publication Year: 2005]
