Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover, 256pp, b&w illustrations in text, index, NOT ex-library. VG in VG dust jacket. Book is clean, bright, tight; free of inscriptions and stamps. Limited signs of gentle handling, moderate creasing to jacket's edges. -- Dangerous, outrage…ous, comic and committed, the extraordinary performers collected here have altered the history of popular entertainment in America and Europe. Some have rarely had their story told, others are familiar figures. The essays explore what made these performers extraordinary: how they were trained, how they practised their art, how they were received, celebrated, satirised and mythologised. From the explosive acting of Richard Burbage to the dislocating quirkiness of Peter Lorre, from the dangerous satire of commedia dell'arte troupes in Russia to the bittersweet collaboration of Morecambe and Wise, this volume explores what made these actors popular. Each contributor has taken care to set the performer and their work in cultural context, so that the collection as a whole charts the changing relationship between acting and popular culture over the last four hundred years. Part One examines seventeenth and eighteenth century performers, as they built a sense of the excitement and possibility of theatre with audiences in Britain and Europe. The idea of acting, its art and popular practice was being formed during this period. Part Two explores nineteenth-century popular performers who became cultural icons and developed popular performance that contributed to the regeneration of national identity. Part Three looks at twentieth-century performers whose acting continued to reach popular audiences in remarkable ways, across national boundaries, as the acting industry underwent transformation in the face of technological change. -- Contents: Preface / Martin Banham; Section One: The Idea of Acting: -- Introduction / Jane Milling; 1. Richard Burbage: A Dangerous Actor / Alexander Leggatt; 2. Thomas Betterton and the Art of Acting / Jane Milling; 3. Tom and Jerry in Russia: Popular Imagery of the Commedia Dell'arte from Peter the Great to Catherine the Great / Laurence Senelick; Section Two: The Celebrated Actor as Cultural Icon: -- Introduction / Jane Milling; 4.
