Occasionally, especially during the medieval morality plays, scenic elements, such as the Hells Mouth , were introduced. Generally the scenes location was either obvious, unimportant, or stated in a character's lines. The latter was the standard practice during the Elizabethan era. The Renaissance The Italian Renaissance Scenery, as we know it today, is a product of the Italian Renaissance . To a large extent, it is based on the discovery of the rules of perspective and their application to the world of architecture. The early evolution of the theatrical scenery is the work of a number of artists over a period of approximately two hundred and twenty five years: 1508 to 1638. Around 1415- Filippo Brunelleschi . (1377- 1446) goldsmith, sculpture and architect discovers the secret of linear perspective: a mathematical system for creating the illusion of space and distance on a flat surface.

Stratfordian scholars, in rebutting our first proposition, rely on three basic points:

A brief history of the puppet theatre The following is a (very) brief history of puppetry. It concentrates mainly on the English puppet traditions before the arrival of Punch, as this is the type of puppetry that we perform. It is by no means a comprehensive study as this would easily fill a whole book in itself. I have tried to cover the subject as chronologically as possible but there are many elements to the subject that tend to run into and overlap each other (it got a but unruly in the middle). I would like to have included something on shadow puppetry, puppetry more further afield than Europe, and certainly something on the religious puppet shows, especially on the ressurection plays of Whitney, but a far more comprehensive coverage of this whole subject can be found in the many books on the subject (some of which may be found on our links page). I hope that this short history will be of some help to its readers. -George Bernard Shaw As soon as a child occupies itself with a doll and acts out its own little scenarios, it is poetically and dramatically portraying that scene. The child puts itself in the place of the doll and is both the artist and audience at the same time. Herein lies the basis of all theatre and the puppet show in particular and is in itself a prime example of the universal originality of imagination. One could argue that the invention of the stocking or crude bag was at the same time the genesis of glove puppets, for as any parent will tell you, socks make very handy distractions when used as a glove puppet.

Ameilia Lanyer, Salve Deus Rex Judæorum Dedicatory Poems Genre: The dedicatory poem might be considered a variety of the invocation of the Muse, since the patron often is said to be the cause for the poem's existence, either because of financial assistance offered the poet, or because the patron actually requested composition of the poem. "To Cooke-ham" is an example of both. The modern book often contains similar sentiments in prose located in the introductions, but the nearest most modern authors get to a spiritually moving acknowledgment of their "Muse" often is in the "dedication" page, usually immediately after the title page and containing only a brief "To..." (spouse, children, parents, teachers, etc.). Characters: Lanyer, herself, as well as her sequence of patrons, the most important of which are Lady Susan, Countess Dowager of Kent, Mary (Sidney) Countess Dowager of Pembroke, Anne Clifford and her mother, Lady Margaret, Dowager Countess of Montgomery. Plot Summary: We might say the dedicatory poems enact a series of negotiations between Lanyer and the patrons in which she tries to weld them, one by one, into a supportive interpretive audience for her work. She directly addresses her fear of the male reading public at several points, as well as her dread of and scorn for the envious attacks by other women (see Marie?). Mainly she attempts to establish each patron as someone whose intellect demands the poem's creation and whose aesthetic and social distinction will assure its success.

Home Page Authorship Life of Edward de Vere Membership ... Contact Us A SHORT LIFE OF EDWARD DE VERE, 17th Earl of Oxford He was born in 1550 at Castle Hedingham, his family's ancestral home. His father, John de Vere, 16th Earl, was Lord Great Chamberlain at the coronations of both Mary and Elizabeth Tudor. His mother was Margaret Golding. Edward was 10 when, in 1561, Queen Elizabeth visited Hedingham for four days of masques, feasting and entertainments. When his father died in 1562, young Oxford, left to become, like Bertram in All'sWell , a ward of the Crown under the tutelage of William Cecil, the Queen's private secretary, (later Lord Burghley, Lord Treasurer). His mother married Charles Tyrrell and seems to have passed out of the boy's life. His sister Mary went to live with her stepfather and they were not reunited for some years. Metamorphoses, published in 1567. A book widely recognised as having a major influence on "Shakespeare". In 1570 he served in a military campaign in Scotland under the Earl of Sussex. By 1571, he was reported as a leading luminary of the Court and for a time, a favourite of Queen Elizabeth. In December 1571 he married Anne Cecil, aged 15, daughter of his guardian. This was a dynastic marriage where all the advantage accrued to Cecil, who was ennobled as Baron Burghley to reduce the social gap between himself and the young Earl. While Oxford was away on a Grand Tour of Europe, he heard that his daughter Elizabeth Vere had been born in July 1575. On his return in early 1576 he appeared to have been convinced that Elizabeth was not his child; consequently he became estranged from Anne for five years, and exiled himself from Court, taking up residence in the Savoy and concerning himself with literary and musical patronage.
