In this wide-ranging book, the author weaves a tale of the
Franciscan missionary theatre in early colonial Mexico and
indigenous dramatizations on the theme of conquest in modern
Mexico. The book tells the story of a Jewish playwright in
17th-century Spain who dramatized Christian evangelism in the New
World, offering fresh readings of representations of the conquest
of Mexico by Dryden and Artaud, and engages in a lively dialogue
with Bakhtin's insistence that drama is a monological genre.;This
study of the theatre develops into an original meditation on the
ethics of cross-cultural encounter offering a new, dialogical model
for human and religious encounter in a pluralistic world. By the
author of "Theatre and Incarnation". Max Harris has also published
articles on literature and religion in "Bulletin of the
Comediantes", "Journal of the American Academy of Religion",
"Medium Aevum", "Modern Drama", "Radical History Review" and
"Restoration".
