Its intentions are twofold: to follow the thread of feminist awareness in her work, and to explore why Robert Delford Brown’s Church of the Exquisite Panic (established in New York City in 1964) is helpful in defining Langille’s vision of the psychological, emotional and spiritual forms of violence which determine Ophelia’s consciousness in her relationships with Hamlet, with other men in her family and with the Danish court. The three highlighted texts are “Cock”, “Andy Warhol Paints Ophelia” and “Church of the Exquisite Panic”. These idiosyncratic and evocative poems are explored to demonstrate the startlingly contemporary possibilities of Shakespeare’s text. The ingenuity of Langille’s subtle discourse is also examined and illustrated. In essence, she makes positive use of the unconventional liturgy of Brown’s church in order to bring insights to bear upon the Shakespearean text. The enterprise places her in an egalitarian and democratic poetic tradition which may be found in much North American poetry, from Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson to Carl Sandburg and Audre Lorde.","PeriodicalId":334648,"journal":{"name":"Shakespeare in Southern Africa","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131628322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Climate as climax in Shakespeare’s Plays","authors":"Sophie Chiari","doi":"10.4314/SISA.V29I1.2","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4314/SISA.V29I1.2","url":null,"abstract":"Thanks to the recent advent of ecocriticism in the field of Shakespeare studies, we are becoming increasingly aware that the representation of climate in early modern drama intersects with discourses on crops and food as well as on race and humours. Yet, as climate resists being represented, few critics think of considering its role per se. What did it really bring to early modern audiences? Keeping in mind the Greek etymology of “climate”, klineio or “slope” (latitude), is quite useful to account for a number of references linked to the humoral physiology that prevailed at the end of the sixteenth century. Unsurprisingly, Shakespeare is concerned with the ways in which the local weather durably affects the nature of men as well as with the way their humours are temporarily modified, through the skin, by climate and environment. I argue that this concern actually prompts him to reverse the traditional points of view in order to show that things also work the other way round. Indeed, in some of his plays, the playwright insists on men’s unfortunate capacities to provoke violent climatic (and climactic) disorders and to generate chaos on earth. As an example of the interactions between men and weather in Shakespeare’s drama, I will explore climate as climax in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Romeo and Juliet, and King Lear. Indeed, in these three works, action is framed by, grounded in, and focused on severe climatic conditions.","PeriodicalId":334648,"journal":{"name":"Shakespeare in Southern Africa","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124891257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stellifying Shakespeare: Celestial Imperialism and the Advent of Universal Genius 《粉饰莎士比亚:天上的帝国主义与宇宙天才的出现》

Borlik","doi":"10.4314/SISA.V26I1.1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4314/SISA.V26I1.1","url":null,"abstract":"As astounding as it may sound, the classic 1956 sci-fi film Forbidden Planet, which teleports The Tempest to outer space, did not mark the first time Shakespeare left Earth's orbit. In 1852, four years after the publication of The Apotheosis of Shakespeare - a high-water mark of Victorian Bardolatry - Frank Feather Dally's grandiose vision of Shakespeare's ascension to the heavens would come true. As if cued by Dally's poem, John Herschel - the son of William Herschel, the famed discoverer of Uranus - proposed naming the four Uranian satellites then known after characters from the works of William Shakespeare and Alexander Pope: Titania, Oberon, Ariel and Umbriel. Since Pope, however, lifted the name Ariel from the ethereal fairy-servant in Shakespeare's Tempest, arguably three of the four are Shakespearean. The tradition would be formally ratified by the International Astronomical Union in 1948, when the Dutch astronomer Gerard Kuiper discovered a fifth moon and elected to name it Miranda after the heroine of The Tempest. Over the past few decades, thanks to the 1986 Voyager 2 mission and the celestial vistas unveiled by the Hubble Telescope, Shakespeare's Uranian progeny have continued to grow. To date, 22 additional Uranian satellites have been discovered; of these, only one (Belinda) has been dubbed after a character in Pope's Rape of the Lock, while the remaining 21 have been christened after the dramatis personae of Shakespeare. And thereby hangs a tale.","PeriodicalId":334648,"journal":{"name":"Shakespeare in Southern Africa","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131969025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
