A practical, accessible and thorough guide to identifying and using
rhetorical devices in drama, using examples from both classical and
contemporary plays. An unprecedented reference and handbook for
actors, directors, playwrights and teachers; written by
practitioners for practitioners. Little has been written about how
dramatists draw on rhetorical devices, and how a study of these can
unlock a text for a performer or director, or indeed inspire
contemporary playwrights. This book addresses in detail - yet in
straightforward terms - the many different rhetorical forms used in
drama, and enables the reader to identify and analyse them.
Dramatic Adventures in Rhetoric may be read cover to cover, or it
may be dipped into; it is both an analytic tool and a reference aid
for use in the classroom or rehearsal room, revealing how careful
study of language is one of the best ways of accessing the richness
of texts both classical and contemporary.
