The World Is Very Round
Author: Maurice Siegel
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1503520714
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 697
Book Description
Unlike words of a novel where the author may wish to inform the reader of unspoken but intended feelings for the reader, the author adds an aside with additional lines. Such asides in a play will cause the listener’s building emotional connection to get diminished. But it is the double purpose with the words spoken that produce both information and emotion, each with their separate purposeful existences struggling with each other at the very same moment. That is so fascinating in plays and makes me want to try my best at this art form.

"The original 1790 enumerations covered the present states of Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, and Virginia. Unfortunately, not all the schedules have survived, the returns for the states of Delaware, Georgia, Kentucky, New Jersey, Tennessee, and Virginia having been lost or destroyed, possibly when the British burned the Capitol at Washington during the War of 1812, though there seems to be no proof for this. For Virginia, taxpayer lists made in the years 1782-1785 have been reconstructed as replacements for the original returns" -- publisher website (December 2008).
