Kott, Jan: Shakespeare Our Contemporary
- Description
- Additional information
Reprint of Revised ed Methuen paperback
Peter Brook and Charles Marowitz are among the many directors who have acknowledged their debt to Jan Kott, finding in his analogies between Shakespearean situations and those in modern life and drama the seeds of vital new stage-conceptions. Readers all over the world-Shakespeare Our Contemporary has been translated into nineteen languages since it appeared in 1961-have similarly found their responses to Shakespeare broadened and enriched. Mary McCarthy called the work "the best, the most alive, radical book about Shakespeare in at least a generation."| Condition: |  |
