Grin Verlag. Paperback. New. Paperback. 16 pages. Dimensions: 10.0in. x 7.0in. x 0.0in.Essay from the year 2009 in the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: 1-, Harvard University (Department of English), course: Shakespeare and Modern Culture, language: English, comment: This essay offers a virtuosic study of the multifaceted role of the Chorus in Henry V. The supplementary material - from the classical writers to Brecht - helps this analysis very smartly, and the reading of the Chorus strikes a nice balance between looking at the text and theorizing about it at higher, more conceptual levels. This work represents a very satisfying inquiry into a play that offers many a surface diversion to distract its readers away from the kinds of deeper knowledge offered here. , abstract: At first view, the Chorus in Shakespeares Henry V simply seems to serve two main practical purposes: to lead the audience through the play as regards content, and to form the audiences view on the character of King Henry V himself. The Chorus with his announcements, explanations, apologies, and appeals to the audience, while itself not being part of the diegetic world, underscores the assumption that the Chorus, represented by one single character, functions as a presenter of the play in general and of each act in particular with the rather practical aim to lead the audience through several changes of time and scene: Carry them the kings here and there, jumping oer times (1. 29). But understanding that as a reason or even as a justification for the existence of the Chorus in Henry V, the question has to be raised why a chorus, which is after all rarely used in Shakespeares other plays, is used specifically in this play. There are numerous Shakespearean plays in which a unifying authority would have been highly useful because of a complex structure of the particular play in regard to time and setting such as in Macbeth, King Lear, or The Merchant of Venice, to mention just a few. This item ships from multiple locations. Your book may arrive from Roseburg,OR, La Vergne,TN.
