It is from these characters that Shakespeare’s plays take their form and come to life. … Shakespeare’s creations have a spontaneity and a mutability that may seem puzzling on the printed page but that assume a vividness on the stage. And Shakespeare knew that well, as Matus in The Atlantic observes:Īfter all, Shakespeare’s theater, unlike that of his contemporaries, is a theater of characters, a world on the stage, richly populated with humanity in all its variety. To present them as otherwise would be a failure of art. But once we bury Hero the pure, we get the true Hero back. Similarly, Othello’s obsession with his ideal of a completely pure and devoted Desdemona ends up literally suffocating her-and destroying him as well. Sweet Hero, as everyone calls her, “dies” when Claudio’s accusations and an inflexible moral code destroy her reputation of purity. The scene also hints at another truth of Shakespeare’s work: that people cannot be a single story. And it’s true for Shakespeare, the actor-turned-author whose impact upon literature is so large that people speculate endlessly about who he was and what shaped him. That’s true for Viola, who builds herself a new identity as Cesario. But it comes down to the power of story-the fact that the myths around someone’s life become as vivid and real as the true events, the fact that one’s identity is as much created as it is lived. ![]() There’s a lot that’s admittedly weird about this resolution, not least the fact that Hero is willing to take that credulous jerk Claudio back. Leonato: She died, my lord, but whiles her slander lived. …ĭon Pedro: The former Hero! Hero that is dead! When the time comes, the “cousin” takes off her mask and reveals that she is Hero after all, telling Claudio:Īnd when you loved, you were my other husband. Eventually, Claudio realizes his mistake, performs a funeral rite for Hero, and guiltily agrees to marry her cousin. Hero’s family puts out the news that she has died of shame. Hero and Claudio are about to be married, but Claudio calls off the wedding when he thinks he’s seen her with another man. Pretty straightforward, right? If you’re dizzy, that’s the point: What the play drives home is that identity can shift and transform, even from moment to moment. Beneath her disguise, she loves a duke, who loves a woman, who loves Cesario, who gets confused with Sebastian, whose reappearance seemingly brings both twins back from the dead. They end up on an island, where Viola for safety disguises herself as a man, Cesario. Shipwrecked twins Viola and Sebastian are separated, each believing the other has drowned. ![]() ![]() Or take Twelfth Night, a play whose gender-bending love triangles fascinate scholars of gender and sexuality today. When we watch the mixed-up lovers of A Midsummer Night’s Dream trade desires for a night, we discover how our own desires shape who we are. The effects are often tragic: Hamlet mistakenly stabs Polonius from behind a curtain two-faced Iago goads Othello to murder Desdemona Romeo dies because to all appearances, Juliet looks dead.īut there are comic confusions too, and those are sometimes the most illuminating. What’s more, his plays are filled with masks and mix-ups, double agents and disguises, lookalikes and false appearances. Whoever he was, it’s safe to say that no one loved a good case of mistaken identity more than he did.Īs Megan recently wrote, Shakespeare was “an inveterate punster,” piling meaning on meaning in every phrase so that even his words have double identities. As Twelfth Night puts it, “One face, one voice, one habit, and two persons! … How have you made division of yourself?”īut, well, what’s in a name? The thing is, I don’t think Shakespeare himself would have minded all this controversy. Both scholars build meticulous cases for their candidates, and both read convincingly enough to make for a puzzling problem indeed. ![]() That October issue featured a heated debate on the subject, between Matus, taking the side of Shakespeare the actor from Stratford, and Tom Bethell, taking the side of the better-read, better-traveled Edward de Vere, the 17th earl of Oxford. The best-loved and most-mythologized author in the English language is also one of the most mysterious and controversial as Irvin Matus noted in our October 1991 issue, “No fewer than fifty-eight claimants to that title have been put forward.” Today marks 400 years since the death of William Shakespeare-or at least, the man we think of as Shakespeare.

What’s your opinion on the new Firefox browser? For the time being we go with the well-known Firefox developer tools and the Google Chrome DevTools. It remains to be seen if a lot of developers turn their back on Chrome and head back to Firefox. It’s comfortable to have a one-stop tool kit for your browser, although we’re still missing some nice features in the new Firefox (such as network throttling). To sum things up, we are excited to see Mozilla’s latest release of this stand-alone developer browser for its 10th anniversary. It shows you the needed information in a more simplified way.įirefox Developer Edition: the perfect fit for devs? Compared to the Style Editor in the Firefox Developer Edition, we like the visual display of the media queries in Chrome. Moreover Google Chrome lets you display the media queries in the dev tools. In contrast, the Firefox Developer Edition doesn’t offer such network throttling. Further on, you can adjust the network speed in your Chrome browser to analyze your site behavior with different networks (such as EDGE, 3G, etc.). Similar to the Responsive Design View mode in the new Firefox, Chrome offers a pre-set of devices where you can play around with screen sizes of different devices. We still love the Google Chrome for it’s easy to use dev tools. Especially compared to the Chrome browser the new Firefox developer Edition doesn’t offer that much improvements for our work efficiency.

Watch the video below to see how it works in detail: Mozilla also added new tools in the Firefox Developer Edition – such as the Valence add-on, which allows you to connect the Firefox developer tools to other browsers (for example Safari on iOS).įrom our point of view, the Responsive Design View is an interesting new feature, which lets you play with the different screen sizes without changing the size of your browser window. The browser basically got the same styles and colors as the developer tools which should give you a quicker access to the developer tools. One of the first things you’ll recognize after opening the new developer edition is the new theme. The Firefox Developer Edition can also be run separately from the other installed Firefox browser. Mozilla developed this new browser explicitly for developers which means it was built to fit in the web development process and offers developers a variety of possible applications.

I do find it curious that the Mystery Dungeon series ended up being the longest running, and most successful, project that was very much a distillation and style-injection of Nethack more than any other of the classics of the time by Chunsoft. Quite a comprehensive episode-the only other things that come to mind that could've fit well into the mix would be the progeny of sorts that Nethack ended up with, Diggr(perhaps Incavead as well) and PRIME.each taking a different feel on the heritage, each very overt about it, and each yet to really break out.

The same menu in DynaHack is a little more compact:Īn uncursed +2 bullwhip (weapon in hand) What nobody mentioned is that almost every variant has had this feature for years! For example, selecting a whip from the inventory brings up a menu like this in UnNetHack: In the podcast itself, you said you wished NetHack could let you pick an item and bring up a menu of actions you could perform with it. I haven't seen any demand for it to be featured in any other variant.

![]() It IS a very simple story though, so you will need to keep your expectations reasonable. The acting, although not stellar, was decent enough and did not detract from the mood of the story. ![]() I felt that it was told in a way that served the story very well and maintained a good level of Suspense. In my lowly and wretched opinion, I thought it was put together in a very effective and moody way with a lot of Classic style and atmosphere. Well, you can probably tell by my rating that I really liked this movie (the reviews of the two other people so far here seem to agree.) This movie is indeed for people who actually DO like these kind of Old School Ghost Stories (can you say, 'THE FOG' anyone.? YES, the original, NOT the lame remake : ) So, if you are the kind of person who likes older style Ghost Stories (especially ones based upon Classics like Poe) then you will probably really enjoy this movie. ![]() Sorry about the long intro, it kind of bothers me when people do that here, because as I said, it's really not helpful to others who DO like these types of films. But, when a person rates a film like this poorly when it is one that they wouldn't like anyway, does that help the rest of us to know HOW WELL it was done? See what I mean? For example, I personally loathe and detest Torture Porn Horror films, but I certainly do not come here and give movies like 'HOSTEL' low ratings, do I? Why.? Well, because that doesn't really help people who might actually LIKE those kinds of films and who want to know if a particular one is done well. Well, maybe if a person just doesn't like this type of old school Horror film or the Retro style of movies like this really bores them. Reviewed by lathe-of-heaven 7 / 10 Very, VERY Old Fashioned Horror Story done well with a nice Classic, atmospheric style. Overall, better than expected though very flawed still. Then there is the ending which is rushed and on the wrong side of silly. The dialogue has a lot of cheese and awkwardness and the secondary cast are wooden and some of the chemistry bland.Īs said, 'Edgar Allan Poe's Lighthouse Keeper' can drag and the first third is really uneventful and makes one want to bail. Low budget however does show, the film did need a grander and more elaborate setting while the photography can be too claustrophobic and the effect ropy at best. The threat actually has personality and generated creepiness. Parts are creepy and there is are a few fun set pieces. The characters were not as annoying as feared and don't make as many frustrating and illogical decision making like some films seen recently did (this is always also including bigger budget films that were box office successes if variable critically). 'Edgar Allan Poe's Lighthouse Keeper' wisely plays it straight with a little tongue-in-cheek going on and appreciated and admired the more ambitious storytelling when the action properly kicked in. The music is both quirky and ominous and the direction when the film gets going is assured. Starting with the good things, Vernon Wells is great and generally the main performers were better than average. And it actually was, not perfect and the potential is not completely lived up to but in no way is it wasted. But I went with my gut instinct and saw 'Edgar Allan Poe's Lighthouse Keeper' anyway because it did seem like it would be one of my better recent low-budget viewings. Most of my recent low-budget viewings with low rating and mediocre to terrible reviews have been as bad and in some cases even worse. Based on an unfinished short story, 'Edgar Allan Poe's Lighthouse Keeper' intrigued me with a great concept and the reviews here were nowhere near as bad as feared.Įspecially when the rating was very low, which from personal experience recently has not been a good sign. Love Edgar Allan Poe, from reading his timeless stories and the Roger Corman and Vincent Price films where the best of them were creepy and entertaining.
