Woman in the Moon: Written in the Stars
<ul><li>In this episode, hosts Joan Raube-Wilson and Jake Raiter get astrological as they lead us on a far out journey through the stars to investigate the astronomical underpinnings of Lyly's Women in the Moon. They explore Lyly's use of sources in creating the universe of this astrological sex comedy, particularly Robert Greene's Planetomachia and the curious "Astronomer's Game" once used as a training tool for Renaissance physicians! Can understanding the cosmos and the nuances of planetary alignment like they early moderns help us go deeper into Pandora's world? </li></ul><p><br><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Woman in the Moon: Jupiter? I Hardly Know Her
<p>In our final episode of Season 4, hosts Emily Bassett and Cole Graham zoom in on the figure of Jupiter inside of Lyly's Woman in the Moon specifically and in the context of early modern drama more generally. What does it mean when a major god like Jupiter shows up in your play? What kind of (mostly bad) behavior should the audience expect? And how do productions of these plays handle divine spectacle in practical terms? Join Emily and Cole for an excavation of performance choices and a close-reading of Woman in the Moon's concentrated production history. Featuring a scene from the plays as performed by guest actors Jake Raiter and Joan Raube-Wilson</p><br><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Courage to Right a Woman's Wrongs: Meet the Servants
In this episode, host Nora Frankovich explores the wild and zany world of the servant characters in Caro's play thinking through the influence of Italian commedia dell'Arte on Spanish comedia. Frankovich is joined by special guest expert Anastasia Wilson. Wilson is a professor at Georgia State University and an educator, actor and devising artist with an advanced foundation in Physical Theatre. Together, Frankovich and Wilson compare and contrast Caro's deployment of servant characters to drive the plot of Courage with their continental commedia cousins. How might reading these characters through a feminist or justice-focused lens add layers of meaning for contemporary audiences of Caro's play?<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
