Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
'Mr. Linney continues to be a poet of America's heartland. . . . He is one of our finest playwrights.' MEL GUSSOW, NEW YORK TIMESRomulus Linney: Maverick of the American Theater provides the first book-length examination of the life and career of the critically acclaimed playwright. Relentlessly challenging in his choice of dramatic subjects Linney has earned seven lifetime achievements for his playwriting. Based on extensive interviews and a close examination of Linney's personal files, Fleming crafts an in-depth, incisive look at how Linney's life has informed his plays. The extensive research led Linney to conclude: ?Fleming knows more about my career than I do.'Romulus Linney: Maverick of the American Theater provides critical insight into Linney's:? Personal life and approach to playwriting? History plays (Sorrows of Frederick, Childe Byron, and 2)? Appalachian plays (Holy Ghosts, Heathen Valley, and Sand Mountain)? Plays that explore American views and values (Love Suicide at Schofield Barracks, Democracy, A Lesson Before Dying)? One-Act Plays (F.M., April Snow, Tennessee, Akhmatova, and many more)? Adaptations (Gint, True Crimes, Unchanging Love, Going After Cacciato, and others)Other features include:? An annotated chronology of Linney's career? Three photo sections, covering both Linney's personal life and productions of his plays? A total of 40 plays are closely examined for their plot, character, and thematic contentFleming's interviews and analysis provide directors and actors insight into the forces that motivate Linney's complex characters. Producers and teachers will be enlightened by the comments from the playwright, as well as his collaborators. The clear, accessible writing should enlighten both fans of Linney's work as well as those producing one of Linney's plays.'Fleming makes connections that I did not realize when I was writing my plays, but in retrospect are correct. . . . It is gratifying to find someone who understands my work as well as he does.' ROMULUS LINNEY?And when the history of American theater is written, of this particular period, I think Romulus Linney's name will be near the top of it.' AUGUST WILSONJOHN FLEMING is Chair of the Department of Theater and Dance at Texas State University, where he served as producer for Romulus Linney's adaptation of Going After Cacciato. Fleming's other books include Stoppard's Theatre: Finding Order amid Chaos and Tom Stoppard's Arcadia.

Running Through the Ages, 2d ed.
Author: Edward S. Sears
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786473398
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
Beginning with prehumans running down prey, this book describes how ancient, medieval and modern runners have come to run ever faster. Writers of antiquity left few detailed accounts of running but in the early 1800s detailed accounts of running feats and matches appeared in newspapers, journals and books. Nineteenth century pioneers like George Seward, Harry Hutchens, Walter George and Bernie Wefers are here given long-deserved recognition. The six-day Go-as-You-Please races of the 1870s and 1880s--featuring running's first great female performer, Amy Howard--are discussed. Twentieth century luminaries Helen Stephens, Jesse Owens, Paavo Nurmi, Emil Zatopek, Bob Hayes, Abebe Bikila and Joan Benoit-Samuelson are included, along with the Bunion Derby races of 1928-1929. New material for this revised and expanded second edition includes coverage of the 1970s running boom, women marathon pioneers, the impact of drugs on running, and the feats of 21st century runners such as Usain Bolt, Paula Radcliffe and Haile Gebrselassie.
