📗 Libro en inglés MIGRATIONS IN AMERICAN THEATER AND DRAMA: GEOGRAPHICAL, PHYSICAL, RELIGIOUS, MUSICAL, AND EESTHETIC MIGRATIONS

This volume is intended to provide a survey of the latest research on the field of American drama and theater from a kaleidoscopic point of view. Springing up from a common trunk, migrations, every single contribution can be taken as a leafy green stem in the bare-boned branches that eventually will shape a multi-colored tree canopy of insightful thoughts onto such a prevailing topic. This collection of essays explores the many ways that migrations have been and are still today an active factor modeling the culture and, more specifically, theater and drama in their multi-varied forms. Having American drama as the focal point, these illuminating essays address questions such as geographical, physical, religious, musical, aesthetic or stylistic migrations, providing insights into the wide range of topics and authors being discussed and analyzed, from such classics as Arthur Miller or Eugene O Neill, to Tony Kushner, Lynn Nottage and Sarah Ruhl, notwithstanding questions such as the migration of aesthetic movements and styles. Within the latest publications on American drama and theater, few offer such a multicultural and multi-faceted approach to such great variety of topics connected to migrations as the one offered by this volume. It is intended to create a compendium of intergenerational and intergeneric references that may contribute for the most part to add layers of meaning to the discussions undertaken in it.
