Transposing Broadway: Jews, Assimilation, and the American Musical
ISBN: 9780230113275 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Over the last hundred years, musical theatre artists - from Berlin to Rodgers and Hammerstein to Sondheim - have developed a form that corresponds directly to the Americanization of the increasingly Jewish New York audience; and that audience's aspirations and concerns have played out in the shows themselves. Musicals thus became a paradigm which instructed newcomers in how to assimilate while correspondingly envisioning "American Dream" America as democratic and inclusive. Broadway musicals still continue to function today as "cultural Ellis Islands" for fringe populations seeking acceptance...

A History of the Takarazuka Revue Since 1914: Modernity, Girls' Culture, Japan Pop
ISBN: 9789004203860 / Angielski / Twarda / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Founded in the hot-spring resort town of the same name in 1914, Takarazuka is a kaleidoscopic medium, both in terms of its theatricality and visual characteristics. Yet, despite its prominence and popularity, it has not received the academic attention it deserves, especially in the context of theatre studies. This book, therefore, by taking an interdisciplinary approach, endeavours to fill this gap through a detailed analysis of the Takarazuka Revue Company's history, educational traditions and theatrical ethos viewed from the prism of Japan's modernization and globalization in the twentieth...
