In these four lectures Peter Hall reveals a lifetime of discoveries
about classical theatre, Shakespeare, opera and modern drama. The
central argument is that form and structured language paradoxically
give freedom to power of thought and feeling, much as the masks of
early Greek drama enabled actors to express extreme emotion. The
mask may take many forms - the precise language of Beckett and
Pinter, the classical form of Mozart's operas, or Shakespeare's
verse. Reprinted to form part of the Oberon Masters series, a brand
new collection of attractive hardbacks on key themes within the
arts written by leading lights in each subject.
