Marina Carr and Greek Tragedy

Marina Carr and Greek Tragedy examines the feminist transposition of Greek tragedy in the theatre of the contemporary Irish dramatist Marina Carr. Through a comparison of the plays based on classical drama with their ancient models, it investigates Carr’s transformation not only of the narrative but also of the form of Greek tragedy. As a religious and political institution of the 5th-century Athenian democracy, tragedy endorsed the sexist oppression of women. Indeed, the construction of female characters in Greek tragedy was entirely disconnected from the experience of womanhood lived by real women in order to embody the patriarchal values of Athenian democracy. Whether praised for their ...

Salome the Wandering Jewess

"It is a remarkably interesting idea to present the pageant of the world as it unfolded before the yes of the same man during two thousand years. Also, to keep him a young man instead of a doddering gray-beard. It is like reading a series of entrancing short stories with the added interest of logical sequence. Your erudition is amazing, and it is presented in a manner that lures one on and on, as well as inducing the pleasant belief that one is learning something really worth while." -- Gertrude Atherton

La danse a inspiré la littérature, et la littérature a inspiré la danse. Mais comment fonctionne exactement l’articulation entre les deux, et quelles sont les conséquences de leur réciprocité ? Cet ouvrage analyse ce lien depuis la Renaissance jusqu’à l’époque moderne, de d’Aubigné à Francis Ponge, de la danse macabre à la théorie de Laban. La relation entre danse et littérature est variable : parfois elle se fonde sur un principe esthétique, parfois sur un principe thématique, ou bien sociologique. Quelque soit la nature de ce rapport, ce livre démontre qu’il est durable et riche de sens. Les moyens d’expression de la danse et de la littérature sont radicalement différents, aussi éloignés les uns des autres que l’on puisse imaginer. Entre l’abstraction du langage et la matérialité du corps, le fossé paraît infranchissable. Ceci n’est qu’apparence. Mots et mouvements se complètent, les uns aidant à la compréhension des autres. Ce livre relate le désir à travers les siècles d’explorer cette inspiration mutuelle.

Lou Salomé

"Minä siis astun tähän keskelle." LOU SALOMÉ on esitys naisen tiestä ajattelijaksi. Vauhdikkaasti rekistereitään vaihtava teos hyödyntää oivaltavasti historiallista tapausta mutta pitäytyy tiukasti nykyäänkin tunnistettavien ilmiöiden, ongelmien ja mahdollisuuksien koettelussa. LOU SALOMÉ on ajatusten ja ruumiin stimulointia hauskimmillaan ja älykkäimmillään. Teoksen taustalla on Pietarissa syntyneen ja Saksassa vaikuttaneen Lou von Salomén (1861--1937) käänteikäs ja henkeäsalpaava elämä. Mannermaisen älymystön johtotähtiin kuulunut mutta paljossa unohdettu nainen nousi kirjailijaksi ja kulttuurivaikuttajaksi -- vain tullakseen muistetuksi esimerkiksi Nietzschen, Rilken ja Freudin innoittajana. Omapäisen feministin on aika nousta esiin omillaan. Kom-teatterissa syyskuussa 2021 kantaesitetty LOU SALOMÉ väistää biografisuuden riskit ja torjuu epookin kutsun. Silti se on historiallisestikin uskottava nykynäytelmä monitahoisesta päähenkilöstään, jonka tapauksen pohtiminen alkaa näyttää välttämättömältä juuri nyt. Hersyvää ja hienovaraista tekstiä seuraa von Salomén tekemisiin ja asiayhteyksiin paneutuva jälkisana.
