Pełny opis

Th e troubled reign of a fourteenth-century sultan of Delhi helps dramatize the crisis of secular nationhood in post-Independence India. A twelft hcentury folktale about 'transposed heads' off ers a path-breaking model for a quintessentially 'Indian' theatre in postcolonial times. The folktale about a woman with a snake lover explores gender relations within marriage. Individual human sexuality meets the historical debate on violence in Indian culture. The plays in this volume span roughly the fi rst half of the career of Girish Karnad, one of India's pre-eminent playwrights. Th e three-volume set of Karnad's Collected Plays brings together English versions of his important works. Each volume contains an extensive introduction by theatre scholar Aparna Bhargava Dharwadker, Professor of English and Interdisciplinary Th eatre Studies, University of Wisconsin, Madison. Th e introductions trace the literary and theatrical evolution of Karnad's work over six decades and position it in the larger context of modern Indian drama. In addition, they comment on Karnad's place as author and translator in a multilingual performance culture and the relation of his playwriting to his work in the popular media. Each of these volumes serves as a collector's item, making Karnad's works accessible to theatre lovers worldwide.
