Stabilization over power-constrained parallel Gaussian channels
No full textThis technical note is concerned with state-feedback stabilization of multi-input systems over parallel Gaussian channels subject to a total power constraint. Both continuous-time and discrete-time systems are treated under the framework of H2 control, and necessary/sufficient conditions for stabilizability are established in terms of inequalities involving unstable plant poles, transmitted power, and noise variances. These results are further used to clarify the relationship between channel capacity and stabilizability. Compared to single-input systems, a range of technical issues arise. In particular, in the multi-input case, the optimal controller has a separation structure, and the lower bound on channel capacity for some discrete-time systems is unachievable by linear time-invariant (LTI) encoders/decoder

Thomas Middleton and Early Modern Textual Culture A Companion to the Collected Works
No full textThomas Middleton and Early Modern Textual Culture is a comprehensive companion to The Collected Works of Thomas Middleton, providing detailed introductions to and full editorial apparatus for the works themselves as well as a wealth of information about Middleton's historical and literary context. It will be indispensable to scholars of Renaissance literature as well as essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the book in early modern Europe. - ;Thomas Middleton and Early Modern Textual Culture is not only a companion to The Collected Works of Thomas Middleton, which every scholar of Renaissance literature will find indispensable. It is also essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the book in early modern Europe. The book is divided into three parts. The first part, on The Culture, situates Middleton within an historical and theoretical overview of early modern textual production, reproduction, circulation, and reception. An introductory essay by Gary Taylor (The Order of Persons) surveys lists of persons written by or connected to Middleton, using the complex relationship between textual and social orders to trace the evolution of textual culture in England during the Middleton century (1580-1679). Ten. original essays then focus on Middletons connections to different aspects of textual culture in that century: authorship (by MacD. P. Jackson), manuscripts (Harold Love), legal texts (Edward Geiskes), censorship (Richard Burt), printing (Adrian Weiss), visual texts (John Astington), music (Andrew. Sabol), stationers and living authors (Cyndia Clegg), posthumous publishing (Maureen Bell), and early readers (John Jowett). The rest of the volume, supplies the documentation for claims made in the first part. Part II, the author includes detailed evidence for the canon and chronology of Middletons works in allgenres, greatly extending previous scholarship, and using the latest corpus-based attribution techniques. This section situates individual authorial agency in the space between larger institutional forces and the material specificity of particular textual embodiments. Part III, The Texts, contains a full. editorial apparatus for each item in The Collected Works: an Introduction, which summarizes and extends previous scholarship, is followed by textual notes, recording substantive departures from the control-text, variants between early texts, press-variants, discussions of emendations, and (for plays) an. exact transcription of all original stage directions. Cross-references make it easy to move between the two volumes. This authoritative account of the early texts includes some extraordinarily complicated cases, which have never before been systematically collated: Hence, all you vain delights (the most popular song lyric from the Renaissance stage), The Two Gates of Salvation, The Peacemaker, and A Game at Chess (the most complex editorial problem in early modern drama, with eight extant texts and numerous reports of the early performances). - ;...elaborately cross-referenced...a good deal of effort has gone into making the Companion as user-friendly as possibe... - Michael Neill LRB;The Oxford Middleton is a monumental achievement. Gary Taylor and his team of scholars have managed to do for Thomas Middleton what Heminges and Condell did for Shakespeare in the 1623 First Folio: they've collected a great playwright's work in a landmark edition, one that enables us to appreciate afresh an extraordinary literary career. Taken together, The Collected Works of Thomas Middleton and its companion volume Thomas Middleton and Early Modern Textual. Culture, provide an essential guide to matters at the heart of the English literary world in the earlyseventeenth century, from authorship and collaboration to censorship, civic pageantry, and the London book trade. - James Shapiro, author of 1599: A Year in the Life of William Shakespeare and Professor of English, Columbia University;a monumental work of scholarship - Jonathan Bate, Times Literary Supplement;It is not, I think, overstating the case to say that the release of this edition feels epochal, and the sense of recognition at what it has added, as well as what it will inspire over the ensuing decades, is already palpable. The Oxford Middleton is a truly momentous work, and it is now in the hands of you, the Great Variety of Readers. - Will Sharpe, The Shakespeare Bookshop Newsletter;All of us who care deeply about the history of English drama welcome with great enthusiasm and excitement the publication of the Collected Works of Thomas Middleton, a major achievement in textual scholarship that represents the collective expertise and critical wisdom of scholars from all over the world. Gary Taylor and his many collaborators have given us a new and remarkably versatile Thomas Middleton-a great tragic playwright, a brilliant creator of sly and cynical. urban comedies, a thoroughly gifted man of the theater and citizen of London. With this massive collected edition, the history of English drama is much more complete and we can hope for many more professional productions of these neglected plays. - Gail Paster, Director, Folger Shakespeare Library;It is hard to exaggerate the scale of the Oxford Middleton particularly since this is the kind of scholarship which is--in its diversity and eclecticism--designed to open up debate rather than close it off. It is a colossal achievement representing a decisive expansion of Renaissanc studies which will percolate throughout scholarship and teaching. But what is, perhaps, most exciting, is that thecollection must surely generate a rediscovery of these eminently stageable plays in the. theatre. - Andrew James Hartley, Editor, Shakespeare Bulletin;The publication of The Complete Works of Middleton will be a major event for all those who care about the theatre of Shakespeare's time. The scholarship is meticulous, the commentary is fascinating and the international team of experts displays the field of Renaissance Drama studies at its finest. In modern times, productions of The Changeling and Women Beware Women have shown the dark side of sex and power that Shakespeare touched on but never fully explored. The Complete Works now shows us the full range of Middleton's talent for comedy and social drama and, controversially, the full extent of his collaboration with and development of Shakespeare's plays. - Kathleen E. McLuskie, The Shakespeare Institute;Few editorial projects have been as eagerly anticipated as the Oxford Middleton, which will utterly transform how we understand early modern drama, both in the classroom and in our research. As with Shakespeare, Gary Taylor and his team have set a new gold standard for textual editing and interpretive criticism, leaping from the 19th century to the 21st - finally an edition that captures Middleton's tremendous accomplishments. - Henry Turner, Rutgers University, New Jersey, author of The English Renaissance Stage: Geometry, Poetics, and the Practical Spatial Arts, 1580-1630 (Oxford, 2006).Intro -- TABLE OF CONTENTS -- ALPHABETICAL CONTENTS -- INDEX OF TITLES BY GENRE -- LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS -- HOW TO USE THIS BOOK -- PREFACE: TEXTUAL PROXIMITIES -- Part I: The Culture -- 'The Order of Persons' -- 'Early Modern Authorship: Canons and Chronologies' -- 'Thomas Middleton: Oral Culture and the Manuscript Economy' -- From Wronger and Wronged Have I Fee": Thomas Middleton and Early Modern Legal Culture -- 'Middleton, Music, and Dance' -- 'Thomas Middleton, Uncut: Castration, Censorship, and the Regulation of Dramatic Discourse in Early Modern England' -- 'Casting Compositors, Foul Cases, and Skeletons: Printing in Middleton's Age' -- 'Visual Texts: Thomas Middleton and Prints' -- Twill Much Enrich the Company of Stationers": Thomas Middleton and the London Book Trade, 1580-1627 -- 'Booksellers without an Author, 1627-1685' -- 'For Many of Your Companies: Middleton's Early Readers' -- Part II: The Author -- 'Introduction: The Middleton Canon' -- 'Works Included in this Edition: Canon and Chronology' -- 'Works Excluded from this Edition' -- Part III: The Texts -- 'Thomas Middleton: Lives and Afterlives -- 'Middleton's London -- 'Middleton's Theatres -- The Wisdom of Solomon Paraphrased -- Microcynicon: Six Snarling Satires -- The Ghost of Lucrece -- The Penniless Parliament of Threadbare Poets -- News from Gravesend -- The Nightingale and the Ant -- and, Father Hubburd's Tales -- The Meeting of Gallants at an Ordinary -- Plato's Cap -- The Black Book -- The Whole Royal and Magnificent Entertainment -- The Patient Man and the Honest Whore -- The Phoenix -- Michaelmas Term -- The Puritan Widow -- or, The Puritan -- or, The Widow of Watling Street -- The Revenger's Tragedy -- A Trick to Catch the Old One -- Your Five Gallants -- A Mad World, My Masters -- A Yorkshire Tragedy -- Sir Robert Sherley -- The Two Gates of SalvationThe Roaring Girl -- The Lady's Tragedy -- The Triumphs of Truth -- The Manner of his Lordship's Entertainment -- Masque of Cupids -- Civitatis Amor -- A Fair Quarrel -- The Owl's Almanac -- The Triumphs of Honour and Industry -- Orazio Busino's Eyewitness Account of The Triumphs of Honour and Industry -- Masque of Heroes -- or, The Inner Temple Masque -- The Peacemaker -- or, Great Britain's Blessing -- The World Tossed at Tennis -- The Triumphs of Love and Antiquity -- Honourable Entertainments -- The Sun in Aries -- An Invention -- The Triumphs of Honour and Virtue -- The Triumphs of Integrity -- The Triumphs of the Golden Fleece -- Measure for Measure: A Genetic Text -- The Tragedy of Macbeth: A Genetic Text -- The Life of Timon of Athens -- A Game at Chess: General Textual Introduction -- A Game at Chesse: An Early Form -- A Game at Chess: A Later Form -- Occasional Poems -- The Witch -- The Triumphs of Health and Prosperity -- A Chaste Maid in Cheapside -- The Bloody Banquet -- Hengist, King of Kent -- or, The Mayor of Queenborough -- Wit at Several Weapons -- The Nice Valour -- or, The Passionate Madman -- The Widow -- The Changeling -- The Spanish Gypsy -- Lost Plays -- An/The Old Law -- More Dissemblers Besides Women -- Women, Beware Women -- No Wit/Help like a Woman's -- Anything for a Quiet Life -- Lost Political Prose, 1620-7: A Brief Account -- INDEX TO NOTES ON MODERNIZATION -- A -- B -- C -- D -- E -- F -- G -- H -- I -- J -- K -- L -- M -- N -- O -- P -- Q -- R -- S -- T -- U -- V -- W -- Y -- Z -- A SELECTIVE TOPICAL INDEX -- A -- B -- C -- D -- E -- F -- G -- H -- I -- J -- K -- L -- M -- N -- O -- P -- R -- S -- T -- U -- V -- WThomas Middleton and Early Modern Textual Culture is a comprehensive companion to The Collected Works of Thomas Middleton, providing detailed introductions to and full editorial apparatus for the works themselves as well as a wealth of information about Middleton's historical and literary context.
