Arthur William Symons (28 February 1865 – 22 January 1945), was a British poet, criticBorn in Milford Haven, Wales, of Cornish parents, Symons was educated privately, spending much of his time in France and Italy. In 1884–1886 he edited four of Bernard Quaritch's Shakespeare Quarto Facsimiles, and in 1888–1889 seven plays of the "Henry Irving" Shakespeare. He became a member of the staff of the Athenaeum in 1891, and of the Saturday Review in 1894, but his major editorial feat was his work with the short-lived Savoy. His first volume of verse, Days and Nights (1889), consisted of dramatic monologues. His later verse is influenced by a close study of modern French writers, of Charles Baudelaire, and especially of Paul Verlaine. He reflects French tendencies both in the subject-matter and style of his poems, in their eroticism and their vividness of description. Symons contributed poems and essays to The Yellow Book, including an important piece which was later expanded into The Symbolist Movement in Literature, which would have a major influence on William Butler Yeats and T. S. Eliot. From late 1895 through 1896 he edited, along with Aubrey Beardsley and Leonard Smithers, The Savoy, a literary magazine which published both art and literature. Noteworthy contributors included Yeats, George Bernard Shaw, and Joseph Conrad. Symons was also a member of the Rhymer's Club founded by Yeats in 1890. [1] In 1892, The Minister's Call, Symons's first play, was produced by the Independent Theatre Society – a private club – to avoid censorship by the Lord Chamberlain's Office.[2] In 1902 Symons made a selection from his earlier verse, published as Poems. He translated from the Italian of Gabriele D'Annunzio The Dead City (1900) and The Child of Pleasure (1898), and from the French of Émile Verhaeren The Dawn (1898). To The Poems of Ernest Dowson (1905) he prefixed an essay on the deceased poet, who was a kind of English Verlaine and had many attractions for Symons. In 1909 Symons suffered a psychotic breakdown, and published very little new work for a period of more than twenty years. His Confessions: A Study in Pathology (1930) has a moving description of his breakdown and treatment. and magazine editor. [more]

Is it safe for me to take off my mask, do I have to spend my entire life acting? I became so frustrated with keeping up with my identities. I gave up and fell to the ground, I asked myself in confusion, who am I, what am I supposed to do, and who am I supposed to be in this world? Keeping up appearances was beginning to feel exhausting. Having to perform for others approval started to become overwhelming, I started to say I can't stand humans they are fake, I needed to run away and be alone. I realized that I couldn't stand myself, I was running away from myself. My identities were a burden on my soul. [more]

Gute Literaturinterpreten sind immer Sprach-Künstler. Sie transportieren Inhalte vom gedruckten Wort in gehörte Sprache - im Idealfall so, dass man beim Zuhören gar nicht auf die Idee kommt, der Inhalt könnte überhaupt den Umweg übers Schriftbild gegangen sein: Jemand erzählt mir einfach eine Geschichte. Und das nicht nur Wort für Wort. Eine Geschichte besteht aus lauter Emotionen, aus Gedanken, aus Zwiegesprächen, aus turbulenten oder brutalen oder beschaulichen Bildern. Das alles möchte ein Zuhörer selbst miterleben. Ein guter Erzähler, dem ich gerne zuhöre, vermittelt mir jeden Subtext: Die Freude, das Grauen, die Langeweile, die Überheblichkeit, die Hilflosigkeit, die Kränkung - und den Humor, vielleicht die schwierigste Gratwanderung von allen. Aber nicht jeder professionelle Sprecher, nicht jede prominente Schauspielerin ist automatisch auch für dieses Medium geeignet. Dieser Leitfaden richtet sich an alle Literaturinterpreten, die ihre Stimme im Hörbuchbereich oder auf Leseveranstaltungen einbringen möchten. Vermittelt werden Grundkenntnisse des Sprecherberufs, sowie zahlreiche Tipps über Stimmbildung, über unterschiedliche Interpretationsmöglichkeiten, über Modulation und Sprechstil, Ton und Intonation, Textanalyse und Storytelling. Voice-Acting-Übungen werden dabei helfen, eventuelle Interpretationsschwierigkeiten in Eigenregie zu beheben. Vermittelt wird zudem ein Einblick in die Praxis des Sprecheralltags, z.B. Honorarfragen, Demo-Aufnahmen oder Stimm- und Sprechtraining. Im Anhang befinden sich viele nützliche Adressen von Sprecheragenturen, Hörbuchverlagen und Aufnahmestudios. Über 100 Links zu rechtefreien literarischen Übungstexten runden das Angebot ab. [more]

Zelda decides that "Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet" is too depressing so she takes it into her own hands to recreate the story. Using Characters from my "Space Pirate Series" friends and foes play the similar roles from the play but kind of changing things up a bit. Note: It's not part of the actual series of "Space Pirate" but it might help to have read the books so you can get an idea of how the characters are going to act out this version of "Romeo & Juliet" [more]
