Dramas of the Past on the Twentieth-Century Stage
«
'Taking its methodological inspiration from Linda Hutcheon’s concept of historiographical metafiction, Alexander Feldman’s Dramas of the Past helpfully extends this original notion to encompass dramatic representations of history that apply self-reflexive metatheatrical strategies to comment on the constructedness of history through an augmented awareness of the constructedness of theatre.' - JENN STEPHENSON Queen’s University, Theatre Journal
»
This book defines and exemplifies a major genre of modern dramatic writing, termed historiographic metatheatre, in which self-reflexive engagements with the traditions and forms of dramatic art illuminate historical themes and aid in the representation of historical events and, in doing so, formulates a genre.
