Synopsis The Chamber Plays of August Strindberg by : August Strindberg
Drama. Translated from the Swedish by Paul Walsh. THE CHAMBER PLAYS OF AUGUST STRINDBERG are five short plays written by Strindberg at the end of his career for the Intimate Theater, a small 150 seat theater in Stockholm: "Storm," "Burned House," "The Ghost Sonata," "The Pelican," and "The Black Glove." The plays experiment with style in bold and exciting ways and show Strindberg to be one of the fathers of avant garde theater. THE CHAMBER PLAYS OF AUGUST STRINDBERG is a new translation by Paul Walsh, Professor of Dramaturgy and Dramatic Criticism at the Yale School of Drama.

Synopsis The Chamber Plays by : August Strindberg
Strindberg called these five highly original late works (from 1907) chamber plays to remind us of Beethoven's last quartets. Like the quartets, they are intensely disciplined yet elliptical creations, Written for the Intimate Theatre (founded with August Flack), they strive to reach elusive states of being. Strindberg breaks down for us the barriers between sensory perception and fantasy, between real people and their self-projections, between the living and the dead.

Synopsis The Cambridge Companion to August Strindberg by : Michael Robinson
August Strindberg is one of the most enduring of nineteenth-century dramatists, and is also an internationally recognised novelist, autobiographer, and painter. This Companion presents contributions by leading international scholars on different aspects of Strindberg's highly colourful life and work. The essays focus primarily on his most celebrated plays; these include the Naturalist Dramas, The Father and Miss Julie; the experimental dramas with which he created a true modernist theatre – To Damascus and A Dream Play; and the Chamber Plays of 1908 which, like so much of his work, exerted a powerful influence on much later twentieth-century drama. His plays are contextualised for what they contribute both to the history of drama and developments in theatre practice, and other essays clarify the enormous importance to these dramas of his other work, most notably the autobiographical novel Inferno, and his lifelong interest in science, the occult, sexual politics, and the visual arts.

Synopsis Structures of Influence by : Marilyn Johns Blackwell
