Deryn Watson and David Tinsley The topic of the conference, integrating infonnation technology into education, is both broad and multi-facetted. In order to help focus the papers and discussion we identified 7 themes: * Current developments in society and education influencing integration; * Teachers, their roles and concerns; * Learners, their expectations of and behaviour in an integrated environment; * Developments and concerns in the curriculum; * Successes and failures in existing practice; * Organisation and management of integrated environments; * Identification of social and political influences. Each author was invited to focus on one theme, and these remained strands throughout as can be seen from the short papers and focus group reports. The first and most significant concern therefore was to be clear about our notions of integration; what do we mean and how is this relevant? Our keynote paper from Cornu clearly marked out this debate by examining the notion of integration and alerting us to the fact that as long as the use of IT is still added to the curriculum, then integration has not yet begun.

The author of such modern classics as The Bald Soprano, Exit the
King, Rhinoceros, and The Chairs, Eugene Ionesco is "one of the
most important and influential figures in the modern theater"
(Library Journal). This crucial collection combines The New Tenant
with Amedee and Victims of Duty--the plays Richard Gilman has
called, along with The Killer, Ionesco's "greatest plays, works of
the same solidity, fulness, and permanence as those of] his
predecessors in the dramatic revolution that began with Ibsen and
is still going on."
This study examines the early history plays - the first tetralogy and "King John" - as plays, not only by analyzing their theatrical dimensions but also be connecting their staging with the playhouse as a social institution and with the theatricality of Elizabethan culture in the 1590s.

Exit the King is a highly stylized, ritualized death rite unfolding
the final hours of the once-great king Berenger the First. As he
dies, his kingdom also dies. His armies suffer defeat, the young
emigrate, the seasons change overnight, and his kingdom's borders
shrink to the outline of his throne. At last, as the curtain falls,
the king himself dissolves into a gray mist.
Marivaux's light-hearted comedies of love and intrigue are enjoying a vigorous revival One of the most original of French eighteenth century dramatists, Marivaux wrote over thirty comedies of love and intrigue. This, the only major single-volume selection of Marivaux's plays in English, brings together five full-length and five shorter pieces in lively translations by John Bowen, Michael Sadler, John Walters, Donald Watson and Nicholas Wright.
This unique selection of plays by Luigi Pirandello contains some of his best-known works, such as Six Characters in Search of an Author - an absurdist piece in which the characters, actors and Pirandello himself interact during the rehearsal of a fictional play within the play - and Henry IV - a tragicomic tale of a man who falls from a horse and believes himself to be the eponymous Holy Roman Emperor. Preoccupied with the nature of truth and delusion, and treading dangerously on the borderline between sanity and madness, Pirandello's plays are a daring exploration of human actions and the dark motives lying behind them, and the culmination of the naturalistic school of theatre inaugurated by authors such as Ibsen and Chekhov.

This collection brings together the four plays that feature Ionesco's everyman protagonist Jean Berenger. In `The Killer', he comes across a "radiant city", an ideal civilization which is unfortunately being terrorized by a killer, whom he decides to track down and dissuade from committing any further crimes. In `Rhinoceros', he is the only person in a provincial town who is resisting "rhinoceritis", an affliction that turn its victims into the eponymous horned beasts. In `Exit the King', he is the powerful King Berenger the First, who refuses to acknowledge that he is dying. And in `Strolling in the Air', he acquires the capacity of flight and discovers that the celestial vault is held up by a gigantic pink pillar. While each play in the Berenger cycle is unique, they are all prime examples of Ionesco's conception of the theatre of the absurd, and touch on themes that preoccupied Ionesco throughout his career, such as mortality, alienation, freedom and the evils of Fascism. This volume constitutes a perfect introduction to one of the twentieth century's most original and influential playwrights.
