Packed with insights from a lifetime of directing theatre, Words into Action is a fascinating read and a vital masterclass for actors and directors. Renowned theatre director William Gaskill was one of the founders of the Royal Court, whose ethos, as Christopher Hampton says in his Foreword, 'this book goes a long way towards defining'. Gaskill's acclaimed work as a director always began with the words of the playwright, and here, starting with a chapter on 'Trusting the Writer', he takes the actor through the vital steps needed to find the life of the play and then to articulate it on stage. Drawing instances from his own work in the theatre and from teaching at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, he looks at action and intention, stillness and movement, sentences and rhetoric, punctuation and pauses. He pays detailed attention to staging Shakespeare's plays, and there are also chapters on masks, on language as character, and on verse and prose. Gaskill was, says Maggie Smith, 'the best teacher in the world.'

This amazing little book introduces your child to 40 ACTION words (verbs). But then it goes a step further and puts the same 40 words in 40 short sentences while introducing -ing, which is a very important way to describe action in English. This book activates your child's inner genius by leveraging the language wiring and logic already "pre-installed" at birth! We take the "Pixar Approach"--meaning adults will enjoy sharing these words as much as the babies will love learning by carefully selecting the right images that promote simple conversations about everyday phrases.

Poetry. Gay and Lesbian Studies. Translated from the Swedish by Fredrik Hertzberg. "To read Bjorling is to eat language"--Aase Berg. "Du gar de ord, the last collection of poems by the great Finland-Swedish Modernist poet Gunnar Bjorling...is a milestone in the annals of experimental poetics produced in our century"--Marjorie Perloff. "...Hovering in an aesthetic space somewhere between Dickinson and Celan, Oppen and Creeley, Gunnar Bjorling is a poet of the everyday and its words, as if the abyss between souls could ever be ordinary or ever anything else"--Charles Bernstein.
