The Theater Essays of Arthur Miller (Signed) - Miller, Arthur; Martin, Robert A.
SIGNED BY ARTHUR MILLER on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; red paper covers with red cloth spine - gilt titles; dust jacket - small closed tear near spine edge, price clipped, slight wear to upper edge; dj now in Brodart cover; colours bright and unfaded; very minimal wear; Arthur Miller may be known as much for his marriage to Marilyn Munroe as he is his Pulitzer Prize winning plays; Written for a variety of publications, with a variety of purposes, the 23 essays and 3 interviews collected here show with remarkable consistency the evolution of Arthur Miller's views on the theater. Here Miller offers persuasive commentary on the origins of modern drama, on the nature of tragedy, on the Greeks, on Ibsen; he engages in a 30-year conversation, with himself and with his critics, on his own work; he poses questions - at times disturbing, at times encouraging - on the state of the theater both as an institution and a cultural force in America today.
