Revival by D.g. Goodman, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

This title was first published in 1988: In this book the author has translated five postwar experimental Japanese plays and recreated the artistic, social and spiritual milieu in which they were created. He describes the turning point in Japanese thinking about the nature and limitations of a Western-oriented modern culture, and the creation of "underground" theatres which in which evolved a new mythology of history. Professor Goodman sees these developments as an interplay between personal and political (ie revolutionary) salvation. | Revival by D. g. Goodman, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters | Revival by D.g.
