Autor Jeanne Tiehen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2023
The Theatre of Nuclear Science theoretically explores theatrical representations of nuclear science to reconsider a science that can have consequences beyond imagination.
Focusing on a series of nuclear science plays that span the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and including performances of nuclear science in museums, film, and media, Jeanne Tiehen argues why theatre and its unique qualities can offer important perspectives on this imperative topic.
This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of theatre, politics, and literature.
