Thesis (Ph.D)--Boston University. / This study of Macbeth shows that ceremony and ceremonials contribute significantly to the total artistry of the play. The discussion centers attention on Shakespeare's use of ceremonial metaphor, the ceremonials of prayer and feasting, the courtesies of address and leave-taking, and the service and pageantry of Attendants, Messengers, Soldiers and Servants. It also calls attention to the wealth of ceremonial materials in Shakespeare's plays as a whole, and, whenever pertinent, briefly relates these materials to Shakespeare's development as an artist, to literary and stage traditions, to the work of other playwrights, and to the contemporary world view. The Appendix offers studies of the ceremonial of prayer in Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet. The first chapter defines ceremony and related terms, surveys the many forms of ceremony that appear in the plays, and illustrates the varied use Shakespeare makes of those forms. Emphasis falls on the ceremony found in poetry, music, and heraldry; in courtly, festival, military, and legal occasions; in rites ot prayer, christenings, weddings, and burials, and in such miscellaneous forms as vows, visions, conjuring, and memorials. Thus ceremony and ceremonials share in the artistic unity of Macbeth, in the complexity of its materials, in the profound implications of its themes, and in the subtle harmony between its language and content.

Resumo: Esta tese mapeia as representações da personagem Ofélia de Shakespeare na Inglaterra vitoriana em três áreas nas quais ela ganhou maior expressividade: em edições, no palco e na iconografia. Trata-se, portanto, de um estudo interdisciplinar, que se insere na área dos estudos culturais. A premissa básica é a de que a ubíqua presença de Ofélia na cultura vitoriana serve como exemplo paradigmático do que Raymond Williams chama de "estrutura de sentimento", ou seja, a personagem constitui um veículo adequado para compreendermos os paradoxos da época, principalmente no que diz respeito aos papéis femininos. A divisão da tese é arquitetada em três capítulos que lidam com as especificidades de cada representação, mostrando, também, como eles se interconectam dinamicamente. O material analisado contempla duas edições familiares de Hamlet; duas "narrativas instrutivas"; um roteiro cênico; uma pintura e um poema. Para auxiliar e elucidar as maneiras pelas quais Ofélia foi apropriada, lancei mão de textos os mais diversos: comentários de críticos de teatro e pintura; observações de atores e escritores; atitudes da época com relação ao suicídio feminino; a vida de Elizabeth Siddall, bem como a crítica contemporânea. As representações de Ofélia sublinham a permeabilidade das fronteiras das artes e também nos mostram, em maneiras que escapam a nossa compreensão, como a vida muitas vezes imita a arte.

The study of the question of why Shakespeare's Hamlet delays killing Claudius in revenge for his father's murder is examined in light of the major critical theories from neo-classical to modern scholarship. An expanded treatment of the works of Fredson Bowers, Eleanor Prosser, Bertram Joseph, and Roland Frye, is provided to examine the Elizabethan background of social, political, and religious values. The experience of passionate revenge on the human psyche of the revenger is addressed through an ancillary approach provided through the works of the Freudian analyst Ernest Jones and the psychoanalytic theory of Avi Erlich. The purpose of this study is to review the relevant theories of Hamlet's delay, and to apply the wisdom gleaned from such an examination so as to create a synthesis that may best answer the question of why Hamlet delays. / Graduation date: 1996

Diese Arbeit soll einige wichtige Inhalte und Methoden der Predigten Gryphius' untersuchen. Sie lässt den alten und immer noch nicht geschlichteten Streit der Pädagogen um die Abgrenzung der Begriffe "Didaktik" und "Methodik" unbeachtet und gebraucht "Didaktik" in dem Sinne des J.A. Comenius, der dieses Wort in den allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch der Padagogik einführte. Comenius, der Verfasser der Didactica Magna (und ein Zeitgenosse Gryphius'), zog noch keinen Trennungsstrich zwischen den beiden Begriffen. [...]
