Beskrivning
Presenting a panoramic, world-ranging view of history, this Guide identifies theatre's most important moments of widespread change from 50,000 BCE to modernity, across Eurasia, Africa, the Americas, and Australasia. It explains why those moments came about and examines how they found expression in distinctive theatre practices. Its global perspective complements more localized perspectives and foregrounds the importance of sometimes trivialized and overlooked traditions. The Guide provides students, scholars, and all who are interested in theatre with a fresh, lively, and compelling understanding of world theatre history.

Recensioner i media

'Steve Tillis provides a crucial antidote to the Standard Western Approach teaching of theatre history in this book. Unraveling the global scope of the historiographical processes underlying theatre's evolution is a significant achievement. Tillis does so with care and candor about his specific historical location and blind spots. This should be an essential text for graduate students, the future educators in our field.' Arnab Banerji, Associate Professor of Theatre History, Dramatic Literature, and Dramaturgy, Loyola Marymount University, Tovaangar
