Čarodějky ze Salemu
ISBN: 9788027704323 / Czeski / Miękka / 2022 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Slavné drama klasického amerického autora čerpá ze skutečných událostí z konce 17. století v americkém městečku Salem kdesi v Massachusetts, ale odkazuje k Millerově současnosti a k protikomunistickým honům na čarodějnice mccarthyovské éry, jejichž obětí byl i sám autor.
Na počátku příběhu stojí žárlivost – mladá služka Abigail svede ženatého farmáře Johna Proctora, a když se jí nepodaří udržet jeho náklonnost, rozpoutá ve farnosti davovou hysterii z přítomnosti ďábelských sil. Přijíždí vyšetřující soudce a začne... Slavné drama klasického amerického autora čerpá ze skutečných událostí z konce 17. století v americkém městečku Salem kdesi v Massachuset...

Focus
ISBN: 9780141190044 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) A reticent personnel manager living with his mother, Mr Newman shares the prejudices of his times and of his neighbours - and neither a Hispanic woman abused outside his window nor the persecution of the Jewish store owner he buys his paper from are any of his business. Until Newman begins wearing glasses, and others begin to mistake him for a Jew. Arthur Miller's chilling novel displays the same searing moral precision and emotional intensity of his plays, as the intensity of anti-Semitism in 1945 New York mounts, and the prejudices Newman shares begin to turn threateningly against him.

Death of a Salesman: Certain Private Conversations in Two Acts and a Requiem
ISBN: 9780141182742 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The Pulitzer Prize-winning tragedy of a salesman s deferred American dream
Ever since it was first performed in 1949, "Death of a Salesman" has been recognized as a milestone of the American theater. In the person of Willy Loman, the aging, failing salesman who makes his living riding on a smile and a shoeshine, Arthur Miller redefined the tragic hero as a man whose dreams are at once insupportably vast and dangerously insubstantial. He has given us a figure whose name has become a symbol for a kind of majestic grandiosity and a play that compresses epic extremes of humor and anguish,...

'Death of a Salesman' in Beijing: 2nd Edition
ISBN: 9781472592088 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 1983 Arthur Miller was invited to direct Death of a Salesman at the Beijing People's Theatre, with Chinese actors. This was an entirely new experience for Miller and for the Chinese company, most of whom had never even heard of 'life insurance' or 'installment payments'. Miller had forty-eight days of rehearsals in which to direct his play and, while there, he kept a diary. This book tells the fascinating story of Miller's time in China and the paradoxes of directing a tragedy about American capitalism in a Communist country. First published in 1984 and re-issued in a new... In 1983 Arthur Miller was invited to direct Death of a Salesman at the Beijing People's Theatre, with Chinese actors. This was an entirely n... |

Focus
ISBN: 9780142000427 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Written in 1945, Focus was Arthur Miller's first novel and one of the first books to directly confront American anti-Semitism. It remains as chilling and incisive today as it was at the time of its controversial debut. As World War II draws to a close, anti-Semitism is alive and well in Brooklyn, New York. Here, Newman, an American of English descent, floats through a world of multiethnic neighborhoods indifferent to the racism around him. That is, until he begins to wear glasses that render him "Jewish" in the eyes of others, making him the target of anti-Semitic prosecution. As he...
