El objetivo de este libro es, ademas de proponer una conducta etica, ofrecer una ensenanza lo suficientemente atractiva en si misma para quienes ingresan a una escuela, y que mejor que las Conversaciones de Stanislavki con los artistas del teatro Bolshoi transcritas por K. E. Antorova, una alumna del curso, quien anos mas tarde las publico con un prefacio en el cual relataba la manera como fue estructurado este curso propedeutico. Las conversaciones son una etapa importante en la elaboracion de la propuesta stanislavkiana y constituye una etapa preliminar antes de introducir al alumno a la...

Stanislavski s system has dominated actor-training in the West since his writings were first translated into English in the 1920s and 30s. His systematic attempt to outline a psycho-physical technique for acting single-handedly revolutionized standards of acting in the theatre.

Until now, readers and students have had to contend with inaccurate, misleading and difficult-to-read English-language versions. Some of the mistranslations have resulted in profound distortions in the way his system has been interpreted and taught. At last, Jean Benedetti has succeeded in translating...

Out of the large body of materials -- articles, speeches, notes and memoirs -- left behind by Stanislavski at the time of his death in 1938, Elizabeth Hapgood, his friend and translator, chose items which concentrate on the essence of his work. The result is a volume which supplements the other books he wrote, and re-emphasizes, sometimes in condensed and particulary vivid form, his views about acting, the theatre and life.

Stanislavski was the foremost influence on the Method school of acting, as developed by Lee Strasberg. Here in concise form is what Stanislavski himself said about acting, aimed at students, experienced theatre people and laymen interested in stage craft.

An Actor Prepares is the most famous acting training book ever to have been written and the work of Stanislavski has inspired generations of actors and trainers. This translation was the first to introduce Stanislavski's 'system' to the English speaking world and has stood the test of time in acting classes to this day.
