Summary/Abstract "Poetics" is a treatise on fine art, mentioning not only epic and dithyrambic poetry, but tragedy, comedy, flute playing and lyre playing.

Theatre of the oppressed / Boal, Augusto; McBride, Odilia Leal(Tr.); Charles, A.(Tr.) 1985  Book
Boal, Augusto Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New York, Theatre Communications Group, 1985.
Description x,197pBlack spine
Summary/Abstract Boal and his work are marvellous examples of the post-modern situation - its problems, its opportunities. Twice-exiled, Boal is now 'at home' wherever he finds himself to be. He makes a skeptical, comic, inquisitive and finally optimistic theatre involving spectators and performers in his search for community and integrity. This book needs to be used even more than read.
Contents Aristotle's coercive system of tragedy Machiavelli and the poetics of virtue Hegel and Brecht: the character as subject or the character as object? Poetics of the oppressed Development of the arena theatre of Sao Paulo Appendices
