内容概要
Here's a ticket to instant sophistication for anyone who delves into this loving celebration of theater art, past and present, scripted in a lighthearted but highly instructive voice. Whisked on a world tour, readers have a box seat at events ranging from ancient ritual plays and classic Greek tragedy/comedy through medieval, Elizabethan, Jacobean, Restoration, Mystic, Realist, and Expressionist works. Traditions as diverse as Islamic, Russian, American, French, Irish, African, Scandinavian, Japanese, Chinese, and many others are outlined, taking in every continent and numerous cultures through the ages. Rob Graham is both a senior lecturer on theater and head of film and television studies at Brunel University in England.
