The Theater of Teaching and the Lessons of TheaterDomnica Radulescu, Maria Stadter Fox Lexington Books, 2005 - 215 стор. Radulescu (French and Italian literature, Washington and Lee University) and Fox, a comparative literature scholar, present a collection of essays by theater, literature, and language scholars from universities in the US on connections between theater and teaching. Eleven of the 15 essays are versions of papers given at the Fifth National Symposium on Theater in Academe. Viewing teaching as a type of performance and both theater and teaching as political and social acts, the contributors discuss drama pedagogy, new interpretations of texts and myths, cultural identity, humor, and historical staging. Further examinations are of performing, dramaturgy, teaching African theater, and Greek drama in a liberal arts setting. In addition, audience collaboration is investigated, as well as using storytelling to write about one's own past. One essay addresses women's influence in 16th-century theater.
