African Theatre 9: Histories 1850-1950
ISBN: 9781847010148 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 199 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Drawing on such archived resources as are available, this volume seeks to recover moments from the past by bringing together papers that explore the complexity of the relationships that characterised a...

ISBN: 9780852555965 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Women have struggled to be heard in the world of modern African theatre. Traditionally they had secure roles as dancers, singers and storytellers, but as theatre became professionalised and commercialised, control increasingly lay with the literate elites. This volume is testimony to the scope of their work as playwrights, musicians and actors from the Algerian diaspora to the new South Africa.
