Stanislavsky in Focus brilliantly examines the history and actual
premises of Stanislavsky's 'System', separating myth from fact with
forensic skill. The first edition of this now classic study showed
conclusively how the 'System' was gradually transformed into the
Method, popularised in the 1950s by Lee Strasberg and the Actor's
Studio. It looked at the gap between the original Russian texts and
what most English-speaking practitioners still imagine to be
Stanislavsky's ideas. This thoroughly revised new edition also
delves even deeper into: the mythical depiction of Stanislavsky as
a tyrannical director and teacher yoga, the mind-body-spirit
continuum and its role in the 'System' how Stanislavsky used
subtexts to hide many of his ideas from Soviet censors. The text
has been updated to address all of the relevant scholarship,
particularly in Russia, since the first edition was published. It
also features an expanded glossary on the System's terminology and
its historical exercises, as well as more on the political context
of Stanislavsky's work, its links with cognitive science, and the
System's relation to contemporary developments in actor-training.
It will be a vital part of every practitioner's and historian's
library.
