ISBN: 9780226511245 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-12 dni roboczych.

Avant Garde Theatre: 1892?1992
ISBN: 9780415065177 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. Examining the development of avant garde theatre from its inception in the 1890s right up to the present day, Christopher Innes exposes a central paradox of modern theatre; that the motivating force of theatrical experimentation is primitivism. What links the work of Strindberg, Artaud, Brook and Mnouchkine is an idealization of the elemental and a desire to find ritual in archaic traditions. This widespread primitivism is the key to understanding both the political and aesthetic aspects of modern theatre and provides fresh insights into contemporary social trends. The original text, first...
