of Kabuki playwriting of the Edo Period (1603-1867.) The reader will find a critical examination of Kezairoku , and discussions regarding the connections between the Kabuki and literary worlds of Edo Japan, and between playwriting and the oral arts. The availability of the entire Kezairoku in English, together with a full contextualization of its teachings and meanings, offers a volume of great significance to both Japan and theatre scholars. |
