ISBN: 9781680531787 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this engaging study, theatre scholar Robert J.

Andreach's insights maintain that familiarity with these five units should stimulate thinking about the experiences and what they reveal about contemporary American life and the ways in which the theatre can dramatize that...

How explicit they were in expressing their views depended on the characters of the authors or the circumstances in which they wrote. Questions regarding the...
