(Applause Books). Covering the full scope of Western drama, from
the ancient Greeks to the 20th century, these two volumes of
Classical Monologues for Women together contain 136 monologues from
sources other than Shakespeare's plays. The series now presents the
monologues chronologically rather than dividing them up into
younger and older roles, with this volume covering the period from
the 1680s to the 1940s. The men's volumes will be revised in a
similar way. Monologues from the full scope of Western drama are
included: Greek, Roman, Italian Renaissance, Elizabethan, Jacobean,
Restoration, Spanish, French, German, and 18th- and 19th century
English. Playwrights featured include Sophocles, Christopher
Marlowe, Corneille, the Marquis de Sade, Oscar Wilde, Cervantes and
Moliere. Each monologue features a detailed introduction from
editor Leon Katz, providing an informative and critical context for
theatre professionals and general readers alike. The excerpts are
also fully footnoted for unfamiliar references. Volume Four
contains all pertinent bibliographical information for the sources
from which the monologues have been drawn. Simply put, these
volumes and their companion volumes, containing monologues for men
are a must for actors, directors, teachers and students of
classical theatre. Also available: Classical Monologues: Vol. 1
Younger Men (1557835756) Classical Monologues: Vol. 2 Older Men
