DOWNLOAD EBOOK →"Never before, in the entire history of the American theater, has so much of the truth of Black people's lives been seen on the stage," observed James Baldwin shortly before A Raisin in the Sun opened on Broadway in 1959. This edition presents the fully restored, uncut version of Hansberry's landmark work with an introduction by Robert Nemiroff. Lorraine Hansberry's award-winning drama about the hopes and aspirations of a struggling, working-class family living on the South Side of Chicago connected profoundly with the psyche of Black America—and changed American theater forever. The play's title comes from a line in Langston Hughes's poem "Harlem," which warns that a dream deferred might "dry up/like a raisin in the sun." "The events of every passing year add resonance to A Raisin in the Sun," said The New York Times. "It is as if history is conspiring to make the play a classic."

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A STUDY OF THE THREE ACT STRUCTURE - THE WIZARD OF OZ, CITIZEN KANE, CASABLANCA, CHINATOWN covers the history of cinematic practice of the three act structure during both the World War II period (1939-1945) and the Post-War period (1945-present). This is accomplished through a pure and comprehensive analysis highlighting the most popular classical films during the period and Hegelian dialectics, which vigorously analyses the narrative development of each film in detail. Ryota explains narrative factors leading to stability and dynamics in Hollywood cinema tales and includes close analyses of plot points, sequences and acts. As it ranges across decades, examining classics like The Wizard of Oz, Citizen Kane, and Casablanca as well as Roman Polanski’s masterpiece Chinatown, this book provides a vivid and engaging interpretation of how Hollywood moviemakers have adapted to the Western tradition of cinematic storytelling that continues to engage audiences around the world. Moreover, throughout this book the author treats the three-act structure as a film narrative structure in completed form. Thus, it differs from ordinary screenplay-instruction books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Among the most enduring poetry of all time, William Shakespeare’s 154 sonnets address such eternal themes as love, beauty, honesty, and the passage of time. Written primarily in four-line stanzas and iambic pentameter, Shakespeare’s sonnets are now recognized as marking the beginning of modern love poetry. The sonnets have been translated into all major written languages and are frequently used at romantic celebrations. Known as “The Bard of Avon,” William Shakespeare is arguably the greatest English-language writer known. Enormously popular during his life, Shakespeare’s works continue to resonate more than three centuries after his death, as has his influence on theatre and literature. Shakespeare’s innovative use of character, language, and experimentation with romance as tragedy served as a foundation for later playwrights and dramatists, and some of his most famous lines of dialogue have become part of everyday speech. HarperPerennial Classics brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A morbid tragedy about mortality, madness, and murder, Hamlet follows the eponymous Prince of Denmark as he plots to avenge his father's murder at the hands of Claudius, Hamlet's uncle and the current king, who married Hamlet's mother, Gertrude. Haunted by a ghost and arguing with his girlfriend Ophelia, Hamlet struggles to take revenge, as delay and feigned insanity preoccupy him. Rounding out the cast are other famous figures, like Horatio, and Polonius, and of course, the Gravedigger, who finds the skull of "poor Yorick." Perhaps Shakespeare's most popular play, Hamlet.
