The Critical Response to Arthur Miller: Critical Responses in Arts and Letters

Editat de Steven R. Centola, Michelle Cirulli
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 mai 2006 – vârsta până la 17 ani
Presenting roughly sixty year's worth of Miller scholarship, Centola and Cirulli offer a wide range of interpretations and critical responses to the playwright's work. Incorporating insights from several disciplines including, but not limited to, philosophy, psychology, and sociology, this work also contains discussions of his work in light of new understandings discovered through considerations of cultural contexts, performance issues, feminist concerns, as well as deconstructionist and postmodernist redefinitions of the textuality of Miller's writing.Presenting roughly sixty year's worth of Miller scholarship, Centola and Cirulli offer a wide range of interpretations and critical responses to the playwright's work.

Adept at dramatic experimentation, Miller succeeded in inspiring the work not only of American playwrights but also that of dramatists around the world.

Recenzii

This collection of critical essays features the most significant articles written about Miller's plays over the six decades of his prodigious output. In tracing the evolution of Miller scholarship, the volume demonstrates a wide range of approaches and interpretations, from political and psychological readings to debates about the categorization of individual plays. In his excellent introduction, however, Centola finds consistent themes in the essays and also notes the ways that reviews of certain periods reflect the current popular trends in literary criticism. The text includes a detailed, annotated chronology of Miller's life and a list of additional reading.
