When Opus Posthumous first appeared in 1957, it was an appropriate capstone to the career of one of the most important writers of the 20th century. It included many poems missing from Stevens' Collected Poems, along with Stevens' characteristically inventive prose and pieces for the theater. Now Milton J. Bates, the author of the acclaimed Wallace Stevens: A Mythology of Self, has edited and revised Opus Posthumous to correct the previous edition's errors and to incorporate material that has come to light since original publication.

Dame Harriet Walter, renowned for her wonderful portrayals in Succession and Killing Eve, among others, is one of Britain's most esteemed Shakespearean actors. Now, having played most of Shakespeare's female characters, audaciously, she lets them speak their minds. With new parts for thirty Shakespearean women, written in 'Shakespearean' verse and prose, Harriet Walter goes between the lines of the plays to let us hear what she imagines - sometimes playfully and sometimes searchingly - these women were really thinking.

14.10.1771: Der junge Goethe, 22 Jahre alt, hält eine selbstverfasste Rede auf William Shakespeare anlässlich des Shakespeare-Tages in Frankfurt/Main. Er hält sie im Familienkreis, nimmt kein Blatt vor den Mund und erklärt, warum der Barde aus Stratford-upon-Avon so wichtig für die Entwicklung des Dramas in der Sturm und Drang-Zeit war. Shakespeare räumte auf mit der aristotelischen Dramenkonzeption der Einheit von Ort, Zeit und Raum und gab den Autoren erst dadurch die wahre künstlerische Freiheit. Ein äußerst bedeutsamer Grundlagentext der Literaturgeschichte!
