Shakespeare And Decorum [by] T. McAlindon publisher not identified, Place of publication not identified, date of publication not identified
227 pages 23 cm This book provides an approach to Shakespeare's plays by way of Renaissance ideas on decorum in verbal and non-verbal behaviour... The book's approach to decorum, however, is not purely linguistic, but is guided by the fact that decorum was an all-embracing ethical and aesthetic doctrine to which verbal and non-verbal behaviour alike were subjected. -- from book jacket Bibliographical references included in "Notes" (p. [214]-224) 1. Words, Deeds and Decorum -- 2. Richard II -- 3. Hamlet, Prince of Denmark -- 4. Othello, The Moor of Venice -- 5. Macbeth -- 6. Antony and Cleopatra

Shakespeare Minus 'Theory' T. author (Thomas) McAlindon London: Routledge, Taylor & Francis (Unlimited), London, 2016
Demonstrating and defending a method of close reading and historical contextualisation of Shakespeare and his contemporaries, this collection of essays by Tom McAlindon combines a number of previously published pieces with original studies. The volume includes six interpretative studies, all but one of which involve challenges to radical readings of the plays involved, including Henry V, Coriolanus, The Tempest, and Doctor Faustus. The other three essays are critiques of the claims and methods of radical, postmodernist criticism (new historicism and cultural materialism especially); they illustrate the author's conviction that some leading scholars in the field of Renaissance literature and drama, who deserve credit for shifting attention to new areas of interest, must also be charged with responsibility for a marked decline in standards of analysis, interpretation, and argument. Likely to provoke considerable debate, this stimulating collection is an important contribution to Shakespeare studies.

English Renaissance Tragedy [electronic resource T. McAlindon (auth.) Palgrave Macmillan UK : Imprint : Palgrave Macmillan, Basingstoke, 1988, cop. 1986
This book provides a broad introductory perspective on its subject together with detailed studies of the major non-Shakespearean tragedies. It assumes that the central and most disturbing insights of the plays were expressed in terms of the thought patterns of the time; in particular, it argues that the pre-modern conception of the cosmos as a dynamic but tense system of contrary forces provided the dramatists with a model of tragic experience. An unusual feature of the book is its emphasis on the seminal achievements of both Kyd and Marlow - with whom the tragedy of 'confounding contraries' begins.

Shakespeare's Tragic Cosmos T. McAlindon; Thomas McAlindon Cambridge University Press (Virtual Publishing), 1st pbk. ed, Cambridge [England] ; New York, 1996], ©1991
<p>Dr. McAlindon argues that there were two models of nature in Renaissance culture, one hierarchical, in which everything has an appointed place, the other contrarious, showing nature as a tense system of interacting opposites, liable to sudden collapse. This latter model applies to the whole of Shakespeare's tragedy. It can be seen in the characterization, the settings and the imagery of the tragedies, which the author analyzes in chapters devoted to Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, Macbeth and Antony and Cleopatra.</p>

Shakespeare's Tudor History: A Study of "Henry IV Parts 1 and 2" : a Study of "Henry IV Parts 1 and 2" Tom McAlindon Routledge, Routledge Revivals, First edition, London, 2017
"This title was first published in 2002: An intensive study of Shakespeare's most ambitious and complex achievement in the historical mode. The book offers an account of the play's critical history from 1700 until the 1980s, deals with the aspects of Tudor history relevant to an understanding, and offers close readings of the text structured around what the author believes to be the play's three dominant concepts: time; truth; and grace. In an attempt to correct what he sees as a certain falsification of critical history, the author aligns his account of the play's reception with one of its major preoccupations - the inescapable and informing presence of the past."--Provided by publisher

Roger Zelazny et Thomas T. ThomasNé en 1937 dans l'ohio, Roger Zelazny fait de brillantes études à l'université de Columbia et, très vite, entreprend une carrière littéraire qui lui vaut de nombreux prix. Aujourd'hui, il associe son talent d'auteur confirmé à celui de Thomas T. Thomas un jeune écrivain très prometteur.Le vieux chevalier était allongé sur son lit de mort, blessé au poumon par une flèche sarrasine.— Thomas... viens ici ! L’Ordre doit avoir un gardien de la Pierre. Elle est notre secret. Notre force. Garde-la toujours près de toi... Mais n’oublie pas : elle est dangereuse, c’est un instrument du diable. Tu dois la manipuler le moins possible...Ce fut tout. Le vieil homme était mort.Thomas ne fut pas long à découvrir la cassette.À l’intérieur, un cristal gros comme le poing. Négligeant le dernier avertissement du templier, il toucha la Pierre du bout du doigt. Alors, tout ce qui allait troubler ses songes et ses heures de veille jusqu’à la fin de ses jours se pressa pour atteindre son âme. À cet instant précis, Thomas Amnet comprit qu’il était transformé. Il avait trouvé la Pierre et elle était à lui. La Pierre l’avait trouvé et il était à elle...

Coming of Age: Volume 2: Endless Conflict Thomas T. Thomas Thomas Thurston Thomas, PS, 2014
Hope for Peace, Prepare for WarThe Italian proverb says, “Hold your friends close, but your enemies even closer.” Sometimes you must hold family closest of all. As John Praxis and Antigone Wells benefit from the life-extending techniques of regenerative medicine to enter that unknown space beyond the traditional enfeeblements of old age, they discover that the endless conflicts of family, business, and politics still pursue them.In her efforts to secure financing for the revived Praxis Engineering & Construction Company, John’s daughter Callie has brought a viper into the nest who will follow them through two generations. But the Praxis family has vipers of its own, as John’s second son Richard returns from Texas to install new intelligent software that will spy on their operations. Along with these local adversities, the family must also cope with political reverberations from the Second Civil War, dislocations from an untimely Bay Area earthquake, and the disaster of a mid-continent volcanic eruption followed by political collapse and foreign invasion.Volume 2 of Coming of Age is a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of personal challenges and social changes. John, Antigone, Callie, and their family members become strangers—both to themselves and to each other—in a world that is only partly of their own making.

Coming of Age: Volume 1: Eternal Life Thomas T. Thomas Thomas Thurston Thomas, PS, 2014
Who Wants to Live Forever?“Millions long for immortality who don’t know what to do with themselves on a rainy Sunday afternoon,” wrote British novelist Susan Ertz. So it would seem that humankind was never designed—emotionally or spiritually, let alone biologically—for long, productive lives. But new, life-extending technologies based on advanced genetics and stem-cell reprogramming are coming at us anyway.Construction magnate John Praxis topples over on the golf course from a massive heart attack. And the attorney who was litigating against him, Antigone Wells, succumbs to a stroke. Both have unfinished business they need to pursue. And they are among the first recipients of the new medical techniques to will rebuild failing organs—his heart, her brain—renew deteriorating tissues, and extend their lives almost indefinitely.Coming of Age is a novel of both ideas and action that covers the next century of American history and its probable and improbable impacts on Praxis, Wells, and their extended families through five generations beyond the traditional “three score and ten.” In that time, they will experience love and loss, civil war and geologic upheaval, the rise and fall of both personal and national fortunes, the banishment of old age, the rise of thinking machines, the end of work, and the virtual remaking of the American experience.
