We the People【電子書籍】[ Bruce Ackerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Bruce Ackerman offers a sweeping reinterpretation of our nation’s constitutional experience and its promise for the future. Integrating themes from American history, political science, and philosophy, <em>We the People</em> confronts the past, present, and future of popular sovereignty in America. Only this distinguished scholar could present such an insightful view of the role of the Supreme Court. Rejecting arguments of judicial activists, proceduralists, and neoconservatives, Ackerman proposes a new model of judicial interpretation that would synthesize the constitutional contributions of many generations into a coherent whole. The author ranges from examining the origins of the dualist tradition in the <em>Federalist Papers</em> to reflecting upon recent, historic constitutional decisions. The latest revolutions in civil rights, and the right to privacy, are integrated into the fabric of constitutionalism. Today’s Constitution can best be seen as the product of three great exercises in popular sovereignty, led by the Founding Federalists in the 1780s, the Reconstruction Republicans in the 1860s, and the New Deal Democrats in the 1930s.</p> <p>Ackerman examines the roles played during each of these periods by the Congress, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court. He shows that Americans have built a distinctive type of constitutional democracy, unlike any prevailing in Europe. It is a dualist democracy, characterized by its continuing effort to distinguish between two kinds of politics: normal politics, in which organized interest groups try to influence democratically elected representatives; and constitutional politics, in which the mass of citizens mobilize to debate matters of fundamental principle. Although American history is dominated by normal politics, our tradition places a higher value on mobilized efforts to gain the consent of the people to new governing principles. In a dualist democracy, the rare triumphs of constitutional politics determine the course of normal politics.</p> <p>More than a decade in the making, and the first of three volumes, <em>We the People, Volume 1: Foundations</em> speaks to all who seek to renew and redefine our civic commitments in the decades ahead.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,723円

2034 A Novel of the Next World War【電子書籍】[ Elliot Ackerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**An instant <em>New York Times</em> Bestseller!</p> <p>“Consider this another vaccine against disaster. Fortunately, this dose won't cause a temporary feverーand it happens to be a rippingly good read.” ー<em>Wired</em></p> <p>“This crisply written and well-paced book reads like an all-caps warning for a world shackled to the machines we carry in our pockets and place on our laps . . ." ー<em>The Washington Post</em></p> <p>From two former military officers and award-winning authors, a chillingly authentic geopolitical thriller that imagines a naval clash between the US and China in the South China Sea in 2034ーand the path from there to a nightmarish global conflagration.**</p> <p>On March 12, 2034, US Navy Commodore Sarah Hunt is on the bridge of her flagship, the guided missile destroyer USS <em>John Paul Jones</em>, conducting a routine freedom of navigation patrol in the South China Sea when her ship detects an unflagged trawler in clear distress, smoke billowing from its bridge. On that same day, US Marine aviator Major Chris "Wedge" Mitchell is flying an F35E Lightning over the Strait of Hormuz, testing a new stealth technology as he flirts with Iranian airspace. By the end of that day, Wedge will be an Iranian prisoner, and Sarah Hunt's destroyer will lie at the bottom of the sea, sunk by the Chinese Navy. Iran and China have clearly coordinated their moves, which involve the use of powerful new forms of cyber weaponry that render US ships and planes defenseless. In a single day, America's faith in its military's strategic pre-eminence is in tatters. A new, terrifying era is at hand.</p> <p>So begins a disturbingly plausible work of speculative fiction, co-authored by an award-winning novelist and decorated Marine veteran and the former commander of NATO, a legendary admiral who has spent much of his career strategically outmaneuvering America's most tenacious adversaries. Written with a powerful blend of geopolitical sophistication and human empathy, <em>2034</em> takes us inside the minds of a global cast of characters--Americans, Chinese, Iranians, Russians, Indians--as a series of arrogant miscalculations on all sides leads the world into an intensifying international storm. In the end, China and the United States will have paid a staggering cost, one that forever alters the global balance of power.</p> <p>Everything in <em>2034</em> is an imaginative extrapolation from present-day facts on the ground combined with the authors' years working at the highest and most classified levels of national security. Sometimes it takes a brilliant work of fiction to illuminate the most dire of warnings: 2034 is all too close at hand, and this cautionary tale presents the reader a dark yet possible future that we must do all we can to avoid.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,252円

Reign of Terror How the 9/11 Era Destabilized America and Produced Trump【電子書籍】[ Spencer Ackerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**A <em>New York Times</em> Critics’ Top Book of 2021</p> <p>"An impressive combination of diligence and verve, deploying Ackerman’s deep stores of knowledge as a national security journalist to full effect. The result is a narrative of the last 20 years that is upsetting, discerning and brilliantly argued." ー<em>The New York Times</em></p> <p>"One of the most illuminating books to come out of the Trump era." ー<em>New York Magazine</em></p> <p>An examination of the profound impact that the War on Terror had in pushing American politics and society in an authoritarian direction**</p> <p>For an entire generation, at home and abroad, the United States has waged an endless conflict known as the War on Terror. In addition to multiple ground wars, the era pioneered drone strikes and industrial-scale digital surveillance; weakened the rule of law through indefinite detentions; sanctioned torture; and manipulated the truth about it all. These conflicts have yielded neither peace nor victory, but they have transformed America. What began as the persecution of Muslims and immigrants has become a normalized feature of American politics and nationalsecurity, expanding the possibilities for applying similar or worse measures against other targets at home, as the summer of 2020 showed. A politically divided and economically destabilized country turned the War on Terror into a culturalーand then a tribalーstruggle. It began on the ideological frontiers of the Republican Party before expanding to conquer the GOP, often with the acquiescence of the Democratic Party. Today’s nativist resurgence walked through a door opened by the 9/11 era. And that door remains open.</p> <p><em>Reign of Terror</em> shows how these developments created an opportunityfor American authoritarianism and gave rise to Donald Trump. It shows that Barack Obama squandered an opportunity to dismantle the War on Terror after killing Osama bin Laden. By the end of his tenure, the war had metastasized into a bitter, broader cultural struggle in search of a demagogue like Trump to lead it.</p> <p><em>Reign of Terror</em> is a pathbreaking and definitive union of journalism and intellectual history with the power to transform how America understands its national security policies and their catastrophic impact on civic life.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,723円

What an Owl Knows The New Science of the World's Most Enigmatic Birds【電子書籍】[ Jennifer Ackerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**An instant <em>New York Times</em> bestseller!</p> <p>A <em>New York Times</em> Notable Book of 2023</p> <p>Named a Best Book of 2023 by <em>Publishers Weekly</em></p> <p>From the author of <em>The Genius of Birds</em> and <em>The Bird Way</em>, a brilliant scientific investigation into owlsーthe most elusive of birdsーand why they exert such a hold on human imagination**</p> <p>With their forward gaze and quiet flight, owls are often a symbol of wisdom, knowledge, and foresight. But what does an owl really know? And what do we really know about owls? Some two hundred sixty species of owls exist today, and they reside on every continent except Antarctica, but they are far more difficult to find and study than other birds because they are cryptic, camouflaged, and mostly active at night. Though human fascination with owls goes back centuries, scientists have only recently begun to understand the complex nature of these extraordinary birds.</p> <p>In <em>What an Owl Knows</em>, Jennifer Ackerman joins scientists in the field and explores how researchers are using modern technology and tools to learn how owls communicate, hunt, court, mate, raise their young, and move about from season to season. Ackerman brings this research alive with her own personal field observations; the result is an awe-inspiring exploration of owls across the globe and through human history, and a spellbinding account of the world’s most enigmatic group of birds.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,095円

A Shot to Save the World The Inside Story of the Life-or-Death Race for a COVID-19 Vaccine【電子書籍】[ Gregory Zuckerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**"An inspiring and informative page-turner." ?Walter Isaacson</p> <p>Longlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award</p> <p>The authoritative account of the race to produce the vaccines that are saving us all, from the #1 <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of <em>The Man Who Solved the Market</em>**</p> <p>Few were ready when a mysterious respiratory illness emerged in Wuhan, China in January 2020. Politicians, government officials, business leaders, and public-health professionals were unprepared for the most devastating pandemic in a century. Many of the world’s biggest drug and vaccine makers were slow to react or couldn’t muster an effective response.</p> <p>It was up to a small group of unlikely and untested scientists and executives to save civilization. A French businessman dismissed by many as a fabulist. A Turkish immigrant with little virus experience. A quirky Midwesterner obsessed with insect cells. A Boston scientist employing questionable techniques. A British scientist despised by his peers. Far from the limelight, each had spent years developing innovative vaccine approaches. Their work was met with skepticism and scorn. By 2020, these individuals had little proof of progress. Yet they and their colleagues wanted to be the ones to stop the virus holding the world hostage. They scrambled to turn their life’s work into life-saving vaccines in a matter of months, each gunning to make the big breakthroughーand to beat each other for the glory that a vaccine guaranteed.</p> <p>A #1 <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author and award-winning <em>Wall Street Journal</em> investigative journalist lauded for his “bravura storytelling” (Gary Shteyngart) and “first-rate” reporting (<em>The New York Times</em>), Zuckerman takes us inside the top-secret laboratories, corporate clashes, and high-stakes government negotiations that led to effective shots. Deeply reported and endlessly gripping, this is a dazzling, blow-by-blow chronicle of the most consequential scientific breakthrough of our time. It’s a story of courage, genius, and heroism. It’s also a tale of heated rivalries, unbridled ambitions, crippling insecurities, and unexpected drama. <em>A Shot to Save the World</em> is the story of how science saved the world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,565円

The Collector Essays on Books, Newspapers, Pictures, Inns, Authors, Doctors, Holidays, Actors, Preachers【電子書籍】[ Henry T. Tuckerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The Collector," Henry T. Tuckerman intricately weaves a tapestry of social observation and psychological insight, reflecting the intricacies of human relationships and the notion of possession in Victorian society. The novel employs a rich, descriptive literary style that prioritizes character development and philosophical reflection over action, providing readers with a profound examination of the motivations that drive individuals to collect not only objects but also emotions and experiences. Set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing America, Tuckerman'??s work resonates with themes of nostalgia and the critique of materialism, inviting a reflective engagement with the ethos of the era. Henry T. Tuckerman was an esteemed American author, art critic, and social commentator who frequently explored themes of aspiration and identity. His background in literature and the arts, combined with personal experiences that exposed him to different social strata, profoundly influenced his writing. Tuckerman'??s keen observations on society's nuances prompted him to create a narrative that scrutinizes the allure of collection in a culture increasingly obsessed with ownership and status. "The Collector" is a compelling read for those interested in American literary history and psychological depth within narrative form. It offers profound insights into the human condition, making it a vital addition to the libraries of scholars and casual readers alike. Tuckerman's exploration of complex themes will resonate with anyone interested in the intersection of identity, possession, and purpose.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

<p><strong>#1 <em>NEW YORK TIMES</em> BESTSELLER ? NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES</strong></p> <p>With a career, a boyfriend, and a loving family, Piper Kerman barely resembles the reckless young woman who delivered a suitcase of drug money ten years before. But that past has caught up with her. Convicted and sentenced to fifteen months at the infamous federal correctional facility in Danbury, Connecticut, the well-heeled Smith College alumna is now inmate #11187?424ーone of the millions of people who disappear “down the rabbit hole” of the American penal system. From her first strip search to her final release, Kerman learns to navigate this strange world with its strictly enforced codes of behavior and arbitrary rules. She meets women from all walks of life, who surprise her with small tokens of generosity, hard words of wisdom, and simple acts of acceptance. Heartbreaking, hilarious, and at times enraging, Kerman’s story offers a rare look into the lives of women in prisonーwhy it is we lock so many away and what happens to them when they’re there.</p> <p><strong>Praise for <em>Orange Is the New Black</em></strong></p> <p>“Fascinating . . . The true subject of this unforgettable book is female bonding and the ties that even bars can’t unbind.”<strong>ー<em>People</em> (four stars)</strong></p> <p>“I loved this book. It’s a story rich with humor, pathos, and redemption. What I did not expect from this memoir was the affection, compassion, and even reverence that Piper Kerman demonstrates for all the women she encountered while she was locked away in jail. I will never forget it.”<strong>ーElizabeth Gilbert, author of <em>Eat, Pray, Love</em></strong></p> <p>“This book is impossible to put down because [Kerman] could be you. Or your best friend. Or your daughter.”<strong>ー<em>Los Angeles Times</em></strong></p> <p>“Moving . . . transcends the memoir genre’s usual self-centeredness to explore how human beings can always surprise you.”<strong>ー<em>USA Today</em></strong></p> <p>“It’s a compelling awakening, and a harrowing oneーboth for the reader and for Kerman.”<strong>ー<em>Newsweek</em></strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,409円

Paulson's background was in mergers and acquisitions, however, and he knew little about real estate or how to wager against housing. He had spent a career as an also-ran on Wall Street. But Paulson was convinced this was his chance to make his mark. He just wasn't sure how to do it. Colleagues at investment banks scoffed at him and investors dismissed him. Even pros skeptical about housing shied away from the complicated derivative investments that Paulson was just learning about. But Paulson and a handful of renegade investors such as Jeffrey Greene and Michael Burry began to bet heavily against risky mortgages and precarious financial companies. Timing is everything, though. Initially, Paulson and the others lost tens of millions of dollars as real estate and stocks continued to soar. Rather than back down, however, Paulson redoubled his bets, putting his hedge fund and his reputation on the line.<br /> In the summer of 2007, the markets began to implode, bringing Paulson early profits, but also sparking efforts to rescue real estate and derail him. By year's end, though, John Paulson had pulled off the greatest trade in financial history, earning more than $15 billion for his firm--a figure that dwarfed George Soros's billion-dollar currency trade in 1992. Paulson made billions more in 2008 by transforming his gutsy move. Some of the underdog investors who attempted the daring trade also reaped fortunes. But others who got the timing wrong met devastating failure, discovering that being early and right wasn't nearly enough.<br /> Written by the prizewinning reporter who broke the story in <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>, <em>The Greatest Trade Ever</em> is a superbly written, fast-paced, behind-the-scenes narrative of how a contrarian foresaw an escalating financial crisis--that outwitted Chuck Prince, Stanley O'Neal, Richard Fuld, and Wall Street's titans--to make financial history.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,880円

The Collector Essays on Books, Newspapers, Pictures, Inns, Authors, Doctors, Holidays, Actors, Preachers【電子書籍】[ Henry T. Tuckerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The Collector," Henry T. Tuckerman intricately weaves a narrative that explores the nuances of obsession and appreciation for art. Set against the backdrop of the burgeoning 19th-century American art scene, Tuckerman employs a rich, descriptive literary style, blending realism with philosophical musings on aesthetics and the moral implications of collecting. The novel delves into the inner world of its protagonist, illuminating how the act of collecting transcends mere possession, morphing into a complex relationship between the collector and their treasures, ultimately reflecting on the human condition itself. Henry T. Tuckerman, an influential literary critic and art enthusiast of his time, was profoundly affected by the cultural dilapidation and the blossoming landscape of American arts. His intimate knowledge of the art world, combined with personal passions for literature and craftsmanship, greatly informed his exploration of artistic values and the ethical dilemmas surrounding ownership and value in "The Collector." Tuckerman's scholarship and critical writings lend credence to his character exploration, inviting readers to glimpse his perspectives on taste and authenticity. This erudite work is a must-read for anyone interested in the symbiotic relationship between art and human emotion. Tuckerman's masterful storytelling not only captivates but compels readers to reflect on their own perceptions of value, possession, and the often fuzzy line separating admiration from obsession. "The Collector" offers both an engaging narrative and profound philosophical insights, making it an essential addition to the canon of 19th-century literature.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

We the People【電子書籍】[ Bruce Ackerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Constitutional change, seemingly so orderly, formal, and refined, has in fact been a revolutionary process from the first, as Bruce Ackerman makes clear in <em>We the People: Transformations</em>. The Founding Fathers, hardly the genteel conservatives of myth, set America on a remarkable course of revolutionary disruption and constitutional creativity that endures to this day. After the bloody sacrifices of the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln and the Republican Party revolutionized the traditional system of constitutional amendment as they put principles of liberty and equality into higher law. Another wrenching transformation occurred during the Great Depression, when Franklin Roosevelt and his New Dealers vindicated a new vision of activist government against an assault by the Supreme Court.</p> <p>These are the crucial episodes in American constitutional history that Ackerman takes up in this second volume of a trilogy hailed as "one of the most important contributions to American constitutional thought in the last half-century" (Cass Sunstein, <em>New Republic</em>). In each case he shows how the American people--whether led by the Founding Federalists or the Lincoln Republicans or the Roosevelt Democrats--have confronted the Constitution in its moments of great crisis with dramatic acts of upheaval, always in the name of popular sovereignty. A thoroughly new way of understanding constitutional development, <em>We the People: Transformations</em> reveals how America's "dualist democracy" provides for these populist upheavals that amend the Constitution, often without formalities.</p> <p>The book also sets contemporary events, such as the Reagan Revolution and <em>Roe v. Wade</em>, in deeper constitutional perspective. In this context Ackerman exposes basic constitutional problems inherited from the New Deal Revolution and exacerbated by the Reagan Revolution, then considers the fundamental reforms that might resolve them. A bold challenge to formalist and fundamentalist views, this volume demonstrates that ongoing struggle over America's national identity, rather than consensus, marks its constitutional history.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,288円

The Man Who Solved the Market How Jim Simons Launched the Quant Revolution【電子書籍】[ Gregory Zuckerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong><em>NEW YORK TIMES</em> BESTSELLER</strong></p> <p><strong>Shortlisted for the</strong> <em><strong>Financial Times</strong></em>**/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award**</p> <p><strong>The unbelievable story of a secretive mathematician who pioneered the era of the algorithm?and made $23 billion doing it.</strong></p> <p>The greatest money maker in modern financial history, no other investor?Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, Ray Dalio, Steve Cohen, or George Soros?has touched Jim Simons’ record. Since 1988, Renaissance’s signature Medallion fund has generated average annual returns of 66 percent. The firm has earned profits of more than $100 billion, and upon his passing, Simons left a legacy of investors who use his mathematical, computer-oriented approach to trading and building wealth.</p> <p>Drawing on unprecedented access to Simons and dozens of current and former employees, Zuckerman, a veteran Wall Street Journal investigative reporter, tells the gripping story of how a world-class mathematician and former code breaker mastered the market. Simons pioneered a data-driven, algorithmic approach that’s swept the world.</p> <p>As Renaissance became a market force, its executives began influencing the world beyond finance. Simons became a major figure in scientific research, education, and liberal politics. Senior executive Robert Mercer is more responsible than anyone else for the Trump presidency, placing Steve Bannon in the campaign and funding Trump’s victorious 2016 effort. Mercer also impacted the campaign behind Brexit.</p> <p><em>The Man Who Solved the Market</em> is a portrait of a modern-day Midas who remade markets in his own image, but failed to anticipate how his success would impact his firm and his country. It’s also a story of what Simons’s revolution will mean for the rest of us long after his death in 2024.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,565円

The Luck of Two Ducks A True Story【電子書籍】[ Jesse Ackerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The inspiration for The Luck of Two Ducks came from a pair of inseparable ducks that lived in a pond near my house in Pooler, Georgia. Along with the actual ducks, Curtis Jones Jr. and Denny Ackerman were my inspiration for the characters. Curtis was a great friend and a coworker at the University of Texas in Austin. He was an amazing person that had a passion for helping people. Curtis graduated from Dartmouth with a degree in sociology and earned four college letters for his performance on Dartmouth's varsity baseball team. Additionally, he earned a master's degree in journalism from the University of Missouri. Curtis was the Associate Athletic Director for Academic Support at West Virginia University until his untimely passing in 2013.</p> <p>My father, Denny Ackerman, was an artist and the business owner of Ackerman Visual Advertising in Cleveland, Ohio. He created logos and signs for various businesses in the Greater Cleveland area. This long list of clients included the Agora Theater & Ballroom, the Cleveland Browns, All-Pro Sport Camps, and Cleveland International Records. Denny was honored to be selected to participate in the inaugural event of GuitarMania, which celebrates the birthplace of rock and roll by transforming ten-foot tall Fender and Stratocaster guitars into works of art placed all around the city of Cleveland. He loved art, sports, music, and doing life with his wife, Linda. He was passionate about anything that involved his family and children. He passed away from a long battle with cancer on May 8, 2013.</p> <p>Denny and Curtis met in 2010 at Cuatros in Austin, Texas. It was amazing to see two of the most impactful people in my life meet for the first time and have an instant connection despite being from different walks of life. The Luck of Two Ducks is a story about their connection, but truly about my admiration and friendship with both Curtis and my father. Additionally, I wanted to create something that my son, DC, and future children would always be able to reference to learn about Grandpa and Uncle Curt.</p> <p>The Luck of Two Ducks is a story about love, acceptance, and not only embracing but celebrating diversity. I've had a wonderful career in the world of sports and have been blessed to work with so many different people from various backgrounds. To quote one of my best friends, "The world would be a boring place if everyone were like you and me." No truer words have ever been spoken. I hope you enjoy the story!</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,368円

Shakespeare at the Globe, 1599-1609【電子書籍】[ Bernard Beckerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>From 1599 to 1608 or 1609 the Globe playhouse was the home of the Chamberlain-King’s company and the only theater where it publicly presented its plays in London. The Globe was imitated by Henslowe, the theater magnate, and lauded by Dekker, the playwright. Upon its stage Shakespeare’s major tragedies enjoyed their first performances. Located among the stews and marshes of the Bankside, it drew across the Thames its audience, men and women, gentlemen and journeymen, sightseeing foreigners and native playgoers. Yet for us the playhouse signifies more than a physical structure for the presentation of plays. It has become the symbol of an entire art. Its construction initiated a glorious decade during which the company achieved a level of stability and a quality of productivity rarely matched in the history of the theater. So rich was the achievement that virtually all interest in the Elizabethan drama radiates from the work of these years. Circumstances attendant on the building of the Globe playhouse were instrumental in developing the distinctiveness of this endeavor. The new playhouse itself was regarded as the last word in theaters. Alleyn and Henslowe modeled the Fortune upon it. Dekker, in a widely known paragraph from The Gull’s Hornbook, praised the wonder of it. In the design of the Globe there were significant changes from former playhouses. It was a theater built by actors for actors. To subsidize it a new financial system was instituted which more fully than heretofore interrelated theater and actors. Furthermore, young men had recently taken over the entire enterprise, playhouse and company. Until 1597 James Burbage had maintained some connection with the Lord Chamberlain’s men. Builder and owner of the Theatre, lessor of Blackfriars, he had exercised a strong influence on the course the company took. In the midst of the uncertainty marking the negotiation for a new lease on the Theatre, James Burbage died, bequeathing to his sons and, by association, to the actors an equivocal inheritance. From his death in 1597 to the building of the Globe in 1599, the company was adrift, playing mainly at the Curtain. How much responsibility and authority the elder Burbage had relinquished to the young men before 1597 is virtually impossible to determine, but the records indicate that he played an active part in the management of theatrical affairs until the end of his life. After his death the erection and success of the Globe devolved upon young, presumably enthusiastic, but not green men of the theater.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円
