In The Contemporary American Monologue Eddie Paterson looks at the pioneering work of US artists Spalding Gray, Laurie Anderson, Anna Deavere Smith and Karen Finley, and the development of solo performance in the US as a method of cultural and political critique. Ironic confession, post-punk poetry, investigations of race and violence, and subversive polemic, this book reveals the link between the rise of radical monologue in the late 20th century and history of speechmaking, politics, civil rights, individual freedom and the American Dream in the United States. It shows how US artists are speaking back to the cultural, political and economic forces that shape the world. Eddie Patterson traces the importance of the monologue in Shakespeare, Brecht, Beckett, Chekov, Pinter, O'Neill and Williams, before offering a comprehensive analysis of several of the most influential and innovative American practitioners of monologue performance. The volume also contains an interview with artist Karen Finley, on the trajectory of her recent works. The Contemporary American Monologue constitutes the first book-length account of US monologists that links the tradition of oratory and speechmaking in the colony to the appearance of solo performance as a distinctly American phenomenon"--Provided by publisher.Methuen drama engage.OratoryUnited StatesHistory21st centuryAmerican drama21st centuryHistory and criticismMonologuesElectronic books.OratoryHistoryAmerican dramaHistory and criticism.Monologues.808.5/109730905Paterson Eddie1067723MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910511644703321The contemporary American monologue2551812UNINA07306nam 22006615 450 99646619150331620200705013202.03-642-37484-010.1007/978-3-642-37484-5(CKB)3280000000007601(DE-He213)978-3-642-37484-5(SSID)ssj0000879983(PQKBManifestationID)11546664(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000879983(PQKBWorkID)10872125(PQKB)11270177(MiAaPQ)EBC3093493(PPN)16914044X(EXLCZ)99328000000000760120130328d2013 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierComputer Vision - ACCV 2012 Workshops[electronic resource] ACCV 2012 International Workshops, Daejeon, Korea, November 5-6, 2012.
