A "Russia of the Theatrical Mind"?

Viac o knihe

Exploring the landscape of Russian theatre in post-WW2 Britain, this book examines the dominance of Chekhov in British perceptions, questioning why other Russian playwrights remain largely overlooked. It delves into the cultural implications of this narrow focus, particularly in light of Susannah Clapp's review of Turgenev's A Month in the Country, which raises the provocative idea of a constructed 'Russia of the theatrical mind.' Through this lens, the book invites readers to reconsider the broader spectrum of Russian theatrical contributions beyond Chekhov.
