READ AN EXCERPT
Monologue is to be found across the spectrum of modern and postmodern theatre and drama, from Samuel Beckett and Harold Pinter to Karen Finley and Spalding Gray. The theatre of monologue revolves around the ambiguities of narrative as a means of knowing and communicating, and is conditioned by dubious authenticity. This collection will bring together original essays on monologue by theatre scholars and practitioners that address the complexities of the form as it appears in contemporary drama and performance.
Contributors: Mateusz Borowski & Malgorzata Sugiera, David Bradby, Daniela Jobertova, Mark Berninger, Laurens De Vos, Eamonn Jordan, Dee Heddon, Catharine McLean-Hopkins, Rebecca D'Monte, Jorge Huerta & Ashley Lucas, Brian Singleton, Eckart Voigts-Virchow & Mark Schreiber, Johannes Birringer.
Clare Wallace is a lecturer at Charles University and at the University of New York, Prague. She has published on Joyce, Marina Carr, Patrick McCabe and contemporary Irish and British drama. She is an advisory editor of Rhizomes: Cultural Studies in Emerging Knowledge and formerly managing editor of The Prague Revue.
