Paperback. Condition: New. Shakespeare Lied is Sky Gilbert's second rumination on Shakespeare to be published by Guernica Editions. It places 'the bard' at the centre of present day debates over 'political correctness'. James Baldwin said Shakespeare's goal was "to defeat all labels and complicate all battles by insisting on the human riddle".Gilbert asserts Shakespeare is not just another dead irrelevant white guy, but that he - in the tradition of the Greek rhetorician Gorgias, and the scandalous, pornographic poet Ovid - was a magnificent, and quite intentional, liar. Shakespeare believed the purpose of art was not to teach, but instead to help us transcend traditional notions of truth.

Paperback. Condition: New. Shakespeare wrote at a unique historical turning point: the world was understood through poetry -- rather than through the science of observing it. In Shakespeare Beyond Science: When Poetry Was the World, Sky Gilbert's radical new research locates Shakespeare as a disciple of the Greek rhetorician Hermogenes, and a student of the Neo-Platonist Johannes Sturm. No, not just another 'interpretation' of the meaning of Shakespeare's work. Instead, a radical approach to Shakespeare as magician and rhetorician, as a post-structuralist, more concerned with form than content, and confident of the dangerous magical power of words not only to persuade but to construct our consciousness.

Paperback. Condition: New. Shortlisted for the 2022 ReLit AwardA professor of English literature writes the autobiography of his fantasy alter-ego, wanton movie star Gloria Grahame, while his own sexual desires go frustrated.Denton Moulton - a shy, effeminate male professor - lives inside his head, where he is really a long-dead movie star: the glamorous Gloria Grahame, from the golden age of Hollywood. Professor Moulton is desperate to reveal Gloria's shocking secret before he dies. Does he have the right to tell this woman's story? Who, in fact, has the right to tell anyone's story at all?A scandalous, humorous novel of taboo desires and repression, I, Gloria Grahame alternates between Gloria's imagined life with her film-director husband, Nicholas Ray, director of Rebel Without a Cause, and Denton's increasingly frustrated real-life attempts to produce his own work of art: an all-male drag production of Shakespeare's Venus and Adonis. The novel takes us from high-strung film sets to dark bars and the puritanical offices of government arts granting agencies, where Denton runs up against the sternest warnings that he may not, in fact, imagine himself as someone else, even in art.A RARE MACHINES BOOK.
