Dramaturgy

Beschreibung

Dramaturgy: A Revolution in Theatre is a substantial history of the origins of dramaturgs and literary managers. Mary Luckhurst examines the major theorists and practitioners, arguing that Brecht, Granville Barker and Tynan have central places in this history, and questions whether dramaturgs are mentors or censors.
