Thwarting the Wayward Seas

A Critical and Theatrical History of Shakespeare's Pericles in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries

By: David Skeele

Skeele then looks at stage production of the play during the greater part of the twentieth century, contrasting two trends in Pericles production: the spectacular approach (a la Phelps) and the spare, stripped-down treatments initially inspired by Poel and Granville-Barker's rebellions against Victorian excess. Finally, Skeele blends critical and production history, examining Pericles in light of recent trends in poststructuralist criticism and postmodern staging.

Original Ohio

Dreamsville, The Magic City & Other Historic Ohio Communities

By: David W. Meyers,Elise Meyers Walker

“Every community begins with a dream—a dream of a better life.” Home to thousands of settlements extending as far back as 13,000 years ago, Ohio has seen most of its architectural history fall to the wrecking ball. But there is still history all around if we know where to look. Located south of Dayton, SunWatch is the best-known Fort Ancient Indian village in the United States. On the other side of the state, Marietta is the oldest permanent settlement in the Northwest Territory. About fifty miles southeast of Cincinnati, antebellum Ripley grew to prominence as a bastion of abolitionism. Dennison, also known as Dreamsville, was born virtually overnight thanks to the railroads. Authors David Meyers and Elise Meyers Walker reveal twenty-one communities where the Ohio story can still be seen.
