First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Stated First Edition. This book is very rare. There's only one other for sale on the Internet. But this one is also very special. How about an instructive book about acting that was signed and inscribed by the author, and given to an already successful actor (one who had been nominated eight years earlier for an Academy Award for The Defiant Ones). The book came from the library of Theodore Bikel and is inscribed to him and his wife ( 'To Theo & Rita, With Best Wishes, David & Mita Hedges.' Once listed, it will be the Only signed copy. You can see the gray covers in the photos. They are very clean. The black lettering on the spine is very bright. The edges and corners are in solid shape. The spine ends have just a little bit of crinkling. The book is square and very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. There is some light dust staining on both the top and middle page edges, but as far as I can see none of it reaches over onto the actual pages, at least not in any conspicuous way. In fact the pages are exceptionally clean. I'm not finding any instances of soiling. There is some amber discoloration on the inside covers and first and last end papers (nowhere else), as you can see in the photo of the signed page. There are no markings anywhere in the book. There are no attachments of any kind. And with the exception of the signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. It has some foxing off of the outer edges of both the front and rear cover, as well as on the spine. It doesn't have any tears. The flaps have the same foxing/toning off their outer edges. All four corners of the flaps have small tucking-in clips, but the price is present and unaffected. I've always had the jacket in a fitted protective cover. I wonder whether Mr. Bikel was readying for a Shakespearean role (he did do Shakespeare's Julius Caesar on American Television). He did a great deal of theater in his life, including more performances of Fiddler on the Roof (As Tevye) than any other actor. You can read more about him in his very long Wikipedia profile. In any event, here's how the book is described on the front and rear flap: 'In this unusual and instructive volume, careful attention is given to the problem involved in speaking Shakespeare's first. The authors expressed the need, not only for training native-born actors to put Shakespeare on the stage, but also for building a larger and truly appreciative audience. Speaking Shakespeare should not only be useful to the actor and oral interpreter, but should also re-awaken a love of Shakespeare in those readers who have no ambitions toward acting. The authors point up the need "to create an interest in Shakespeare as spoken art, to foster an appreciation for the beauties and complexities of his language, and to nourish the skills necessary to manifest those beauties and complexities." Starting from the premise that the actor or oral interpreter should acquire greater knowledge of Shakespeare's language and the convention of Elizabethan rhetoric and poetry, the authors proceed to guide the reader through the steps involved in achieving that knowledge, by discussing in detail the ingredients of Shakespeare's language, the means of presenting that language, and some of the uses to which that language is put. Part II, consisting of carefully chosen selections for practice, provides the actor with some challenging samples of Shakespearean speech. The comments and stage directions are illuminating, and the chosen passages remind the reader that Shakespeare created some of the most beautiful poetry ever written in any language.'.
