This volume attempts to fill in current gaps in English-language scholarship by offering a historical and critical analysis of two of the most influential works of Polish theatre: Jerzy Grotowski's 'Akropolis' and Tadeusz Kantor's 'Dead Class'. By examining each director's representation of Auschwitz, this study provides a new understanding of how translating national trauma through the prism of performance can alter and deflect the meaning and reception of theatrical works, both inside and outside of their cultural and historical contexts.

This volume attempts to fill in current gaps in English-language scholarship by offering a historical and critical analysis of two of the most influential works of Polish theatre: Jerzy Grotowski's 'Akropolis' and Tadeusz Kantor's 'Dead Class'. By examining each director's representation of Auschwitz, this study provides a new understanding of how translating national trauma through the prism of performance can alter and deflect the meaning and reception of theatrical works, both inside and outside of their cultural and historical contexts.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in art.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Experimental theater.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Theater</subfield><subfield code="z">Poland</subfield><subfield code="x">History</subfield><subfield code="y">20th century.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Grotowski, Jerzy,</subfield><subfield code="d">1933-1999</subfield><subfield code="x">Criticism and interpretation.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Kantor, Tadeusz,</subfield><subfield code="d">1915-1990</subfield><subfield code="x">Criticism and interpretation.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="z">0-85728-516-5</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="830" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Anthem Studies in Theatre and Performance</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="906" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">BOOK</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="ADM" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="b">2024-06-06 03:04:02 Europe/Vienna</subfield><subfield code="f">system</subfield><subfield code="c">marc21</subfield><subfield code="a">2013-03-02 20:29:44 Europe/Vienna</subfield><subfield code="g">false</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="AVE" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">DOAB Directory of Open Access Books</subfield><subfield code="P">DOAB Directory of Open Access Books</subfield><subfield code="x">https://eu02.alma.exlibrisgroup.com/view/uresolver/43ACC_OEAW/openurl?u.ignore_date_coverage=true&portfolio_pid=5338770420004498&Force_direct=true</subfield><subfield code="Z">5338770420004498</subfield><subfield code="b">Available</subfield><subfield code="8">5338770420004498</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |
