Demonstrated is how the Dionysian subplot stands in close analogical connection with the play's main action. It is also argued that the storyline emphasises a dimension of the play that is of high relevance to the analysis of its metatheatrical implications. The correspondences between the main action and the satyr play elements highlight the important role that intemperance, excess and the suspension of control play in the Shakespearean theatrical setting.}, language = {en} } @article{Ungelenk2020, author = {Ungelenk, Johannes}, title = {The storm is up and all is on the hazard}, series = {Poetica}, volume = {51}, journal = {Poetica}, number = {1-2}, issn = {0303-4178}, doi = {10.30965/25890530-05101003}, pages = {119 -- 147}, year = {2020}, abstract = {The article is dedicated to the role of weather in Shakespeare's tragedies. It traces a dense net of weather instances - stage weather, narrated weather events, weather imagery - throughout his plays, and attempts to reconstruct the weather's structural implications for the tragedy genre. The way early modern humoral pathology understood the weather's influence on the humours of the human body - of which Shakespeare's plays themselves give evidence - provides the background for reconstructing the function of the weather as a source of tragic force. Its turbulence not only infects the characters in the play and thereby drives the plot, but also transgresses the boundaries of the fictional world and affects spectators in the auditorium.}, language = {de} }
