- Synopsis
- Carlson (theater and comparative literature, City U. of New York--Graduate Center) suggests how linguistic theory and theater practice at the close of the 20th century challenge conventional thinking about theatrical language and the various ways that language can function in the theater. The macaronic stage, post-colonial heteroglossia, and post-modern language play are among his perspectives. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
