About This Item
Roma: Edizioni Tiber, 1929. Hardcover. Good. First edition. Quarto. 212pp., with 200 black and white photographs and illustrations of Bragaglia's Futurist theatre set designs. Publisher's maroon cloth with two inset printed paper labels on the front board. Darkening at the board edges, light scattered staining to the endleaves, front endleaves and front and rear hinges repaired, good or better. Warmly Inscribed by the author on the title page to Hallie Flanagan, with Flanagan's Signature and engraved bookplate on the front pastedown, and with the Italian Authors and Publishers Association embossed stamp: "Societa Italiana degli Autori ed Editori, Roma" on the title page. Hallie Flanagan is best known for her 1931 play *Can You Hear Their Voices?*, and as the Director of the Federal Theatre Project (FTP) under the Works Progress Administration (WPA). She was the first woman awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship, which allowed her to travel throughout Europe and Russia for 14 months in 1926-27 studying modern theatre. She met and befriended many of the greatest playwrights of the age including Lady Gregory, Konstantin Stanislavsky, Luigi Pirandello, and the great Italian Futurist writer, photographer, and director Anton Bragaglia. A nice association between two leading forces in early 20th Century theatre.
