Transnational connections in early modern theatre
This volume explores the transnationality and interculturality of early modern performance in multiple languages, cultures, countries and genres. Its twelve essays compose a complex image of theatre connections as a socially, economically, politically and culturally rich tissue of networks and influences. With particular attention to itinerant performers, court festival, and the Black, Muslim and Jewish impact, they combine disciplines and methods to place Shakespeare and his contemporaries in the wider context of performance culture in English, Spanish, French, Dutch, German, Czech and Italian speaking Europe. The authors examine transnational connections by offering multidisciplinary perspectives on the theatrical significance of concrete historical facts: archaeological findings, archival records, visual artefacts, and textual evidence.
Nonlinear Differential Equations
Working with mathematical models today requires in-depth knowledge of recent methods developed for solving nonlinear differential equations. Keeping abreast of these developments is the goal of the regular meetings of nonlinear analysts held in the Czech Republic, the most recent of which formed the basis of this volume. The subject addressed by these authors is the theory of nonlinear differential equations, with focus on the quasilinear elliptic differential equations of the degenerate type.
Methods of Nonlinear Analysis
In this book, fundamental methods of nonlinear analysis are introduced, discussed and illustrated in straightforward examples. Each method considered is motivated and explained in its general form, but presented in an abstract framework as comprehensively as possible. A large number of methods are applied to boundary value problems for both ordinary and partial differential equations. In this edition we have made minor revisions, added new material and organized the content slightly differently. In particular, we included evolutionary equations and differential equations on manifolds. The applications to partial differential equations follow every abstract framework of the method in question. The text is structured in two levels: a self-contained basic level and an advanced level - organized in appendices - for the more experienced reader. The last chapter contains more involved material and can be skipped by those new to the field. This book serves as both a textbook for graduate-level courses and a reference book for mathematicians, engineers and applied scientists
The Art of Making Theatre
Foreword: The slow cooker of memory -- The holder of the T-square -- The music dream -- The Paris dream -- The dead leaf prison -- The travel dream -- Milestones -- Only two small chairs... -- Locked doors and hidden secrets -- A new use for old tablecloths -- A tri-coloured world -- The paper dress arrives -- A dream realised.
Methods of Nonlinear Analysis
In this book, the basic methods of nonlinear analysis are emphasized and illustrated in simple examples. Every considered method is motivated, explained in a general form but in the simplest possible abstract framework. Its applications are shown, particularly to boundary value problems for elementary ordinary or partial differential equations. The text is organized in two levels: a self-contained basic and, organized in appendices, an advanced level for the more experienced reader. Exercises are an organic part of the exposition and accompany the reader throughout the book.
What is Scenography?
The third edition of Pamela Howard’s What is Scenography? expands on the author’s holistic analysis of scenography as comprising space, text, research, art, performers, directors and spectators, to examine the changing nature of scenography in the twenty-first century. The book includes new investigations of recent production projects from Howard’s celebrated career, including Carmen and Charlotte: A Tri-Coloured Play with Music, full-colour illustrations of her recent work and updated commentary from a wide spectrum of contemporary theatre makers. This book is suitable for students in Scenography and Theatre Design courses, along with theatre professionals.
Teaching Translation vs. Training Translators
The present volume is a collection of selected contributions presented at the Translation and Interpreting Forum Olomouc (TIFO 2019), which was held under the title Teaching Translation vs. Training Translators. The organizers' goal was to provide a platform for all parties with an interest in translating and interpreting, both academics and professionals, to meet and to discuss and critically examine relevant issues and often opposed viewpoints. The participants included representatives of universities, EU institutions, publishing industry, transnational corporations and language service providers.
Elements of Partial Differential Equations
This textbook presents a first introduction to PDEs on an elementary level, enabling the reader to understand what partial differential equations are, where they come from and how they can be solved. The intention is that the reader understands the basic principles which are valid for particular types of PDEs, and to acquire some classical methods to solve them, thus the authors restrict their considerations to fundamental types of equations and basic methods. Only basic facts from calculus and linear ordinary differential equations of first and second order are needed as a prerequisite. An elementary introduction to the basic principles of partial differential equations. With many illustrations. The book is addressed to students who intend to specialize in mathematics as well as to students of physics, engineering, and economics.
Topological and Variational Methods for Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems
In the rapidly developing area of nonlinear theory of differential equations, many important results have been obtained by the use of nonlinear functional analysis based on topological and variational methods. The survey papers presented in this volume represent the current state of the art in the subject. The methods outlined in this book can be used to obtain new results concerning the existence, uniqueness, multiplicity, and bifurcation of the solutions of nonlinear boundary value problems for ordinary and partial differential equations. The contributions to this volume are from well known mathematicians, and every paper contained in this book can serve both as a source of reference for researchers working in differential equations and as a starting point for those wishing to pursue research in this direction. With research reports in the field typically scattered in many papers within various journals, this book provides the reader with recent results in an accessible form.
