  • Responses to provision of personalised cancer risk information

    Open AccessJuliet A Usher‐Smith, Barbora Šilarova et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2017

    Provision of personalised cancer risk was well received and may be a useful addition to other cancer prevention initiatives. Further work is needed in particular to develop ways to present cancer risk that reflect the general perception of what constitutes a risk high enough to motivate behaviour change and help patients contextualise a less well known health risk by providing a frame of reference

  • Troilus and Cressida

    Open AccessKenneth MuirCHAPTERShakespeare Survey2002

    Troilus and Cressida has always been something of a puzzle. The title-page of the Quarto described it as a History, the Epistle to the Reader spoke of it as a Comedy, and the Folio as an afterthought put it between the Histories and the Tragedies. Oscar J. Campbell calls it a comical satire. John Palmer spoke of it as a tragedy in 1912, and as a comedy in 1914. To Hazlitt it was loose and desultory; Coleridge found it hard to characterize; Swinbu…

  • Travel and Drama in Shakespeare's Time

    Open AccessAnthony Parr, Amelia Hadfield et al.BOOKTravel and Drama in Shakespeare's…1996

    This book explores interconnections between voyage narratives and travel plays in a period of intense foreign relations and the incipient colonization of the New World. Eminent Renaissance scholars use historical inquiry and textual analysis to offer readings of narrative and dramatic texts, envisaged both in the context of the period and from the far-reaching perspective of Britain's cultural history. Plays like The Spanish Tragedy, Doctor Faust…

  • Translation versus adaptation in Spain and England

    Open AccessKenneth MuirARTICLERevista Alicantina de Estudios…1995

    The differences between the Elizabethan theatre and the theatre of our day are so enormous that adaptations are necessary. The gulf between the English secular stage and the Catholic stage of the Golden Age makes straightforward translations impossible. Although adaptations are inevitable, they are regrettable necessities. It is better to reveal Shakespeare in his world than to believe that he is our contemporary

    grammes.The background papers and the summaries of the 4 discussion groups' deliberations make a sustained plea to participating governments and to the WHO to take "research" more seriously.Who then could profit from this translation of the "technical discussions" into book form?The politicians and bureaucrats of potentially defaulting governments may have been stimulated on this theme by their participation in the World Health Assembly but its h…

  • Folklore and Shakespeare

    Kenneth MuirARTICLEFolklore1981Cited by: 1

    IN a recent number of the Mississippi Folklore Register (X, 1976), which was devoted to Shakespeare, there was a useful bibliography compiled by Philip C. Kolin, containing nearly 300 items. I came across this after I had prepared this lecture and I was slightly embarrassed to discover that I had read less than a hundred of these. If therefore you find me mentioning things which you have seen elsewhere, I hope you will ascribe this to the fact th…
