The Drama in the Text: Beckett's Late Fiction
ISBN: 9780195088922 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Drama in the Text argues that Beckett's late fiction, like his radio plays, demands to be read aloud, since much of the emotional meaning lodges in its tonality. In Beckett's haunting prose work the reader turns listener, collaborating with the sound of words to elucidate meaning from the silence of the universe. Enoch Brater ranges across all of Beckett's work, quoting from it liberally, and makes connections mainly with other writers, but also with details drawn from the entire Western cultural heritage. Brater serves as an authoritative and persuasive guide to the rich texture...

Authenticity in Contemporary Theatre and Performance: Make It Real
ISBN: 9781350000964 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Authenticity is one of the major values of our time. It is visible everywhere, from clothing to food to self-help books. While it is such a prevalent phenomenon, it is also very evasive. This study analyses the 'culture of authenticity' as it relates to theatre and establishes a theoretical framework for analysis. Daniel Schulz argues that authenticity is sought out and marked by the individual and springs from a culture that is perceived as inherently fake and lacking depth. The study examines three types of performances that exemplify this structure of feeling: intimate theatre seen in... Authenticity is one of the major values of our time.
