Printed wrappers, 4to, 90 pp, plates, facs. How much did playwrights earn from their plays in eighteenth-century London? Granting limitations and major lacunae in the evidence, the lack of serious attention to this question seems surprising. .so far as we are aware, there has been no prior attempt at a systematic analysis. We wish to address several questions. How much did playwrights earn? Did the figure change substantially during the century? How much was it affected by inflation? During what periods could a writer earn his or her living from the theatre? How did women's earnings compare with men's? How well compensated were first plays? What could be earned from afterpieces? How much did publication add to the profits from performance? After a brief section of background and commentary on methodology, we shall review the evidence chronologically, breaking it into logical subdivisions. Incomplete and hazardous as the evidence undeniably is, there is enough of it to permit us to draw some solid conclusions. For the period 1714 - 1800 we have figures for 246 of some 580 mainpieces (roughly 42 per cent), the large majority of them admittedly post - 1750. Afterpieces are more problematical, but hard evidence survives on 118 of 788 cases (15 per cent), most of them after 1750. Very Good.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Life- History of the Atlantic and Pacific Salmon of Canada' is an authoritative study on the biological patterns and life cycles of one of North America's most significant aquatic species.

Readers will find in-depth explorations of the migratory habits, spawning behaviors, and environmental challenges faced by these fish.The text combines scientific observation with a passion for natural history, offering valuable insights into the differences between the various species of salmon found in Canadian waters.
