About This Item
Oxford University Press, New York 1980 Hardcover, 9¼" x 6¼", with dust jacket VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD unclipped dust jacket From Cubism to Surrealism, Symbolism has been at the core of everything specifically modern in modern art. Beginning with Mallarme and ending with Beckett, this book traces the influences of Symbolism in the development of twentieth-century drama. The focus of Symbolist drama was centred on the collapse of the physical and moral universe; and representation turned from the outward to the inward landscape, progressively becoming a transcript of the unconscious life. This book traces the development of Symbolism in the theatre of our time.
