Modernists and the Theatre: The Drama of W.B. Yeats, Ezra Pound, D.H. Lawrence,

Description: Modernists and the Theatre by James Moran Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Modernists and the Theatre examines how six key modernists, who are best known as poets and novelists, engaged with the realm of theatre and performance. Drawing on a wealth of unfamiliar archival material and fresh readings of neglected documents, James Moran demonstrates how these literary figures interacted with the playhouse, exploring W.B. Yeatss earliest playwriting, Ezra Pounds onstage acting, the links between James Joyces and D.H. Lawrences sense of drama, T.S. Eliots thinking about theatrical popularity, and the feminist politics of Virginia Woolfs small-scale theatrical experimentation.While these modernists often made hostile comments about drama, this volume highlights how the writers were all repeatedly drawn to the form. While Yeats and Pound were fascinated by the controlling aspect of theatre, other authors felt inspired by theatre as a democratic forum in which dissenting voices could be heard. Some of these modernists used theatre to express and explore identities that had previously been sidelined in the public forum, including the working-class mining communities of Lawrences plays, the sexually unconventional and non-binary gender expressions of Joyces fiction, and the female experience that Woolf sought to represent and discuss in terms of theatrical performance.These writers may be known primarily for creating non-dramatic texts, but this book demonstrates the importance of the theatre to the activities of these authors, and shows how a sense of the theatrical repeatedly motivated the wider thinking and writing of six major figures in literary history.
