        Titus Andronicus

        by Jim Bulman, Michael Friedman, Carol Chillington Rutter, Alan Dessen

        Michael D. Friedman's second edition of this stage history of Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus adds an examination of twelve major theatrical productions and one film that appeared in the years 1989-2009. Friedman identifies four lines of descent in the recent performance history of the play: the stylised, realistic, darkly comic, and political approaches, which culminate in Julie Taymor's harrowing film Titus (1999). Aspects of Taymor's eclectic vision of ancient Rome under the grip of modern fascism were copied by several subsequent productions, making Titus the most characteristic, as well as the most influential, contemporary performance of the play. Friedman's work extends Alan Dessen's original study to include Taymor's film, along with chapters devoted to the efforts of international directors including Gregory Doran, Silviu Purcarete, and Yukio Ninagawa.

        Directors talk theat

        by Maria M. Delgado, P. P. Heritage

        In 1994 the Arts Council of Great Britain brought together a number of theatre directors as part of the City of Drama celebrations. This is a collection of interviews and discussions with directors who have helped shape the development of theatre in the last 20 years. They include Peter Brook, Peter Stein, Augusto Boal, Jorge Lavelli, Lluis Pasqual, Lev Dodin, Maria Irene Fornes, Jonathan Miller, Jatinder Verma, Peter Sellars, Declan Donnellan, Ariane Mnouchkine, Ion Caramitru, Yukio Ninagawa and Robert Wilson. In addition to the art and craft of directing, there are discussions on multiculturalism; the "classical" repertoire; theatre companies and institutions; working in a foreign language; opera; Shakespeare; new technologies; the art of acting; design; international festivals; politics and aesthetics; the audience; and theatre and society. Finally, there is an epilogue by Peter Brook, Jonathan Miller and Oliver Sacks. ;

        Was heißt: Japanische Literatur verstehen?

        Zur modernen japanischen Literatur und Literaturkritik

        by Irmela Hijiya-Kirschnereit

        Mit dem wachsenden Interesse an japanischer Literatur und der hierzulande steigenden Zahl verfügbarer Übersetzungen wächst auch das Bedürfnis, mehr über diese Literatur in ihrem traditionellen und aktuellen Umfeld zu erfahren. Wie etwa verhält es sich mit dem Einfluß westlicher Literatur, der das literarische Schaffen seit dem späten 19. Jahrhundert so nachhaltig geprägt haben soll? Welches sind charakteristische Stilfiguren und Traditionszusammenhänge, die die Literatur, aber auch das Reden über sie bestimmen? Und schließlich: Welchen Stellenwert hat die Kunstgattung Literatur in den Augen der japanischen Literaturkritik und Philologie? Der vorliegende Band behandelt exemplarische Ausschnitte aus diesem Themen- und Fragenkomplex. Der Einfluß des europäischen Naturalismus auf die Erzählliteratur im frühen 20. Jahrhundert, Mishima und Thomas Mann sowie Abe Kōbō und der Nouveau Roman werden abgehandelt. Erst wenn wir mehr wissen über die Entwicklungsgeschichte der modernen japanischen Literatur, über ihre traditionelle Prägung wie über ihre Erneuerungsversuche, werden wir ihre Fremdheit und ihre Universalität im Rahmen einer gegenwärtigen Weltliteratur recht zu würdigen wissen.

        A Literary Journey across Japan

        by Suso Mourelo

        Suso Mourelo travels throughout Japan. He visits big cities and quiet rural enclaves, with the goal of discovering the places where the novels of his favorite authors took place. We roam the Tokyo of the accursed writer, Osamu Dazai or the small island of Kamishima that served as an inspiration for Yukio Mishima; the Kyoto of Junichirô Tanizaki’s fetish stories or the mountain refuge in which Yasunari Kawabata set Snow Country. With this literary universe as a point of reference, the author wanders across the country, whilst engaging its people, living in the intimacy of their homes, and while he probes the circumstances of a society that is experiencing an amazing mutation. Mourelo creates a story that, in the manner of a long haiku, guides us through the literary memory by the sheer force of sensations and present-day images.
