Citing examples from the works of Shakespeare, Beckett, and Suzan-Lori Parks as well as the films Vertigo, Gaslight, and The Sixth Sense, Rayner describes time as it is employed by theatre with multiple facets of presence, duration, and passage.TheaterPsychological aspectsDramaHistory and criticismGhosts in literatureGhosts in motion picturesTheaterPsychological aspects.DramaHistory and criticism.Ghosts in literature.Ghosts in motion pictures.792.019Rayner Alice1634314MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819701303321Ghosts3974477UNINA
