This volume attempts to fill in current gaps in English-language scholarship by offering a historical and critical analysis of two of the most influential works of Polish theatre: Jerzy Grotowski's 'Akropolis' and Tadeusz Kantor's 'Dead Class'. By examining each director's representation of Auschwitz, this study provides a new understanding of how translating national trauma through the prism of performance can alter and deflect the meaning and reception of theatrical works, both inside and outside of their cultural and historical contexts. 410 0$aAnthem Studies in Theatre and Performance 517 3 $aThe Post-traumatic Theatre of Grotowski & Kantor 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in art 606 $aExperimental theater 606 $aTheater$zPoland$xHistory$y20th century 610 $aPerforming Arts 610 $aTheater 610 $aHistory & Criticism 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in art. 615 0$aExperimental theater. 615 0$aTheater$xHistory 676 $a792/.0233/092 700 $aRomanska$b Magda$0929881 702 $aRomanska$b Magda$4auth 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910433257903321 996 $aThe post-traumatic theatre of Grotowski and Kantor$92090983 997 $aUNINA
