Joerg Esleben has gathered together many of Bennewitz's own writings, most published for the first time, in which he reflects on his production of plays by Bertolt Brecht, Shakespeare, Goethe, Chekhov, and Volker Braun. By translating these writings into English, the editors have provided unprecedented access to Bennewitz's thinking about intercultural work in India. This material is illuminated by explanatory annotations, contextualized commentary, and critical perspectives from Bennewitz's former colleagues in India and other leading scholars. Through its kaleidoscope of perspectives, Fritz Bennewitz in India offers a significant counter to dominant models of Western theatrical interculturalism."--$cProvided by publisher 606 $aTheater$zIndia$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aTheatrical producers and directors$zGermany$vCorrespondence 606 $aTheatrical producers and directors$zIndia$vCorrespondence 607 $aIndia$xDescription and travel 615 0$aTheater$xHistory 615 0$aTheatrical producers and directors 615 0$aTheatrical producers and directors 676 $a792.09540904 700 $aEsleben$b Joerg, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.$01490069 701 $aJohn$b David G$01490070 701 $aRolf$b Rohmer$0701842 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910794747803321 996 $aFritz Bennewitz in India$93711122 997 $aUNINA
