Описание: The immediate post-war period marks a pivotal moment in the internationalization of American theatre when Tennessee Williams’ plays became some of Broadway’s most critically acclaimed and financially lucrative exports. Dirk Gindt offers a detailed study of the production and reception of Williams’ work on Swedish and French stages at the height of his popularity between 1945 and 1965. Analysing the national openings of seminal plays, including The Glass Menagerie, A Streetcar Named Desire, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Orpheus Descending and Suddenly Last Summer, Gindt provides rich and nuanced insights into Williams’ transnational impact. In the process, he charts a network of fascinating and influential directors, actors, designers, producers and critics, all of whom left distinctive marks on mid-twentieth-century European theatre and culture. Gindt further demonstrates how Williams’ work foregrounded cultural apprehensions, racial fantasies and sexual anxieties, which resulted in heated debates in the critical and popular media.

Автор: Hone Michael Название: Truman Capote, Tennessee Williams, Gore Vidal, Christopher Isherwood, Denham Fou: American Homosexual Giants ISBN: 1534792686 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781534792685 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 11380.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This book will concentrate on both aspects, their creative genius and their need for a second form of beauty, that of the boys their art attracted--followed, later, by boys drawn to the money it engendered. Their incessant work allowed them to buy the objects of their lust, especially in the Europe of Paris and Rome and Venice, of Taormina, Capri and Ischia, as well as back home in the States, during the war when the blackout made California beaches a jungle of bodies, mostly those of sailors and soldiers. Capote, for me, was the greatest American writer to have lived, and Tennessee was America's never-equaled playwright; Vidal was a chronicler of an America gone forever and Denham a source of inspiration who played his role to the hilt, beginning with his startling lifestyle and his absolute determination to be the world's best-kept male whore, to turn day into never-ending night, sighs into memories his men would never forget. Of them all, only Isherwood came away with the world's greatest prize, a boy who loved him even beyond his last breath.These men have their own biographers, which is a godsend because it allows me to do what I do best: separate the wheat from the chaff, reducing the bulk of my subjects' lives to a concentrated perfume. It allows me to focus on their salad days, when the sap runs free and lust is at the corner of every street, promising encounters at every crossroads.In old age Tennessee compared himself to Hans Christian Anderson's ''The Snow Queen'' who had a splinter of ice in his heart and couldn't feel anything; Vidal, the man who got the last drop of media mileage from his talent, said he had no warmth, and for the majority of those who attempted to break through the ice they found the interior even more frozen; and Denham Fouts, of whom Capote wrote, ''Sour, sour, sour, rotten to the core.''
