书目名称 | Edward Albee | 编辑 | Gerry McCarthy | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Who‘s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, performed on Broadway in 1962, was Edward Albee‘s first full-length play. It was a smash hit and established Albee as a leading dramatist of the USA. This new study explores Albee‘s remarkable dedication to the theatre, and his determination to develop a deeply personal view of contemporary experience through the public medium of drama. Gerald McCarthy describes Albee‘s experiments in dramatising his personal sensations of loss, and shows his ability to make his audience suffer from experience. Albee‘s natural strengths as a man of the theatre are identified, in particular his brilliant and versatile use of language, and his sensitivity to theatrical style. The development of Albee‘s work and thought is traced through all the major plays for both stage and radio, with detailed discussions of Who‘s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, A Delicate Balance, All Over, Seascape and The Lady from Dubuque. | 出版日期 | Textbook 1987Latest edition | 关键词 | bibliography; theatre; Virginia Woolf | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-349-18660-0 | copyright | Gerry McCarthy 1987 |
