商品簡介
The simple, intimate staging of Yeats's late plays counterpointed by their formal ritual in verse, dance, music and masks creates dramas of extraordinary intensity. Repudiating naturalism, Yeats remains with Lorca, Cocteau and Pirandello among the profound innovators of the European theatre.
Richard Allen Cave provides a full introduction and a commentary on each play. His selection envisages the plays in performance, and groups them chronologically in order of initial composition to enable us to appreciate Yeats's remarkable development as a dramatist.
