Rezensionen

"Coherent and clear, each of the sections illuminates the relationship between theatre and history in a different but always convincing and engaging manner. An attractive text for anyone interested in putting this relationship into perspective, ideal for beginning or more advanced students." Marvin Carlson, Sidney E. Cohn Distinguished Professor of Theatre, Comparative Literature and Middle Eastern Studies, City University of New York, USA
