He explains that, amongst the plenitude of chaotic comedy, wordplay and intellectual ping-pong of Stoppard?s plays, the principle of parsimony that is Occam?s razor lies at the heart of his works. He identifies key patterns in theme ? ethics and duality - and method ? Stoppard?s stage debates and his dramatic vehicles - as well as in theatrical devices. Quoting extensively from all Stoppard?s published works, many of his interviews and also unpublished material Nigel Purse arrives at a comprehensive and unique appraisal of Stoppard?s plays. 410 0$aCosterus ;$vVolume 217. 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a822/.914 700 $aPurse$b Nigel$0965031 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466253103321 996 $aTom Stoppard's plays$92189457 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01585nam 2200517 a 450 001 9910449987403321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a0-313-03260-2 035 $a(CKB)1000000000003702 035 $a(OCoLC)55002833 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10017975 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000172197 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11182764 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000172197 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10150965 035 $a(PQKB)10572267 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3000622 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3000622 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10017975 035 $a(OCoLC)61255254 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000003702 100 $a19990804d2000 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe history of Portugal$b[electronic resource] /$fJames M.
