Minor shelfwear. ; In an effort to remove the plays of ancient Greece from the library and place them firmly in the theatre that gave them being, this study examines each component of the plays - audience, chorus, actors, costume and speech - in the context of its own society and of theatre in general. Peter Arnott discusses Greek drama not as an antiquarian study but as a living art form. He removes the plays from the library and places them firmly in the theatre that gave them being. Invoking the practical realities of stagecraft, he illuminates the literary patterns of the plays, the performance disciplines, and the audience responses. Each component of the productions - audience, chorus, actors, costume, speech - is examined in the context of its own society and of theatre practice in general, with examples from other cultures. Professor Arnott places great emphasis on the practical staging of Greek plays, and how the buildings themselves imposed particular constraints on actors and writers alike. Above all, he sets out to make practical sense of the construction of Greek plays, and their organic relationship to their original setting. ; 224 pages

Period blank paper wrappers. 8vo. 63 pages. 20 cm. In Yiddish, Title translates as, "Messianic Times. (A Dream of My People) . A Play in 3 Acts. " By Sholem Asch (18801957) , Yiddish novelist and playwright. Stimulated by his wide reading in European literature, Asch began writing himself, and in 1900 traveled to Warsaw where he received encouragement from Y. L. Peretz and his advice to work only in Yiddish. Having settled in Warsaw, Asch wrote his first Yiddish story, 'Moyshele, ' which appeared in the journal Der Yud at the end of 1900; he followed this with a volume of Hebrew stories in 1902 and one of Yiddish stories in 1903. [ ] In 1904, his first play, Mitn shtrom (With the Current) , dramatizing loss of faith among contemporary youth, was staged in Polish in Kraków, and was followed by two additional plays with similar themesMeshiekhs tsaytn (The Age of the Messiah; 1906) and Di yorshim (The Heirs; 1913) which, although dramatically limited, were performed in both Polish and Russian as well as in Yiddish. -YIVO Encyclopedia.

POSTFAZIONE DI ALESSANDRO PASSI FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: SEGNI DEL TEMPO,TRACCE DI POLVERE AI TAGLI, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. «Ebbro di forza, bellezza, giovinezza», Nanda teneva uno specchio dinanzi al volto dell’amata Sundari, mentre lei si disegnava il trucco e giocavano insieme. Entrò nel palazzo un monaco per la questua. Nessuno lo vide, perché tutti si occupavano dei «passatempi amorosi e fatui del loro signore». Quel monaco era il Buddha, fratello di Nanda. Da quel momento, come un abile uccellatore, il Buddha comincia a tirare a sé la sua preda: costringerà il fratello alla Liberazione. Nanda è perfetto esemplare dell’uomo naturale, nella sua versione più disarmante e incantevole. Fin dall’inizio splende di «maestà graziosa» e le strofe di Asvaghosa ce lo raffigurano come un nobile animale in una foresta smaltata. Il richiamo alla Liberazione gli è affatto estraneo, tutto il suo essere recalcitra. Mentre si avvia dal fratello, «per indecisione non andava e non restava, come oca reale che nuoti sulle onde». Ormai non vede più Sundari, che gli ha chiesto di tornare prima che il trucco si asciughi, ma gli trafigge il cuore un suono: è il «tintinnio delle cavigliere» di lei. Eppure Nanda giungerà alla Liberazione. Ciò che Asvaghosa ci mostra è la storia di un mirabile irretimento nella salvezza. Le gesta del Buddha e Nanda il Bello sono le due valve di una stessa conchiglia: ma le Gesta sono l’epos di una conquista, Nanda è il romanzo del viaggio di un uomo come tutti, anche se più bello di tutti, di là dal piacere, di là dal paradiso, di là dal deserto della trasmigrazione. Per un lettore di oggi, che è un uomo naturale come Nanda, anche se forse non vive come lui in un «nido di diletto e di gioia», quest’opera è l’occasione per seguire passo per passo un insegnamento che scompone e ricompone le parti della nostra mente, e della nostra vita, come un complicato giocattolo. Asvaghosa, amabile poeta, tessitore di immagini fragranti, scrisse quest’opera «mirante alla quiete interiore» obbedendo alla «legge dell’arte», perché il miele della poesia avvolgesse la salutare amarezza della dottrina e riuscisse ad «attirare i lettori che avessero mente ad altro». Questa è la prima edizione italiana di Nanda il Bello.
