基本説明

A fresh perspective on the history of post-war English theatre, examining the ways in which the practice and criticism of theatre interact with contemporary understandings of language between 1945 and 2008.

Full Description

An account of language and drama between 1945 and 2005, synthesizing linguistic and dramatic knowledge in order to illuminate the ways in which anxieties and attitudes toward language manifest themselves in discourses on and around English theatre of the time, and how these anxieties and attitudes reflect back through the theatre of this period.
