The Final Curtain

The Art of Dying on Stage

von Laurence Senelick

206 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

It is a book about dying, or, more accurately, about the representation of dying in the theatre. Its chief concern is how actors undertook to translate words and concepts into forms legible and significant to an audience. It deals with the ways in which playwrights wrote about death and attitudes towards death in their cultures. Nevertheless, the emphasis is on the practice of acting.
