{"product_id":"theatre-on-trial-anna-mcmullan-9780367747589","title":"Theatre on Trial: Samuel Beckett's Later Drama","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book, first published in 1993, is the first full-length analysis of Samuel Beckett's later drama in the context of contemporary critical and performance theory. It employs a close, textual examination of the later plays as a springboard for exploring ideas around authority, gender and the ideology of performance. Recent work in the world of critical theory has suggested new ways of looking at performance practice. McMullan argues that, while contemporary theory can deepen our understanding of Beckett's dramatic practice, his drama places performance in the context of a metaphysical history and a metatheatrical tradition, thereby confronting and provoking some of the central debates in performance studies' engagement with critical theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anna McMullan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367747588\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367747589\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.35d","brand":"Anna McMullan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44070717260031,"sku":"9780367747589","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_95bc03c0-ef5f-4315-9cf4-cdbe19188863.jpg?v=1685431953","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/theatre-on-trial-anna-mcmullan-9780367747589","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
