0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Particularly InterestingBy P. F. SchmitzLike all of the "Cambridge Companion" series; an excellent and thought-provoking collection of essays on the subject. True; some of the authors have fallen into the trap of being so even handed and open minded about what constitutes history"; that they are unable to make any definite statement about it. The essay on the "Art of Acting" opens with the question "How can we construct a history of the art of acting?" - and then immediately surrenders. You can read the whole chapter and will learn nothing further about the subject.But many of the essays are truly excellent; like the two essays by David Wiles; and the articles on Noh (by David Pellechia); and Circus (by Marius Jwint). Other writers address questions of the tools used in of writing theater history (including traditional archives and the Internet).Two specific case studies on the local theater of Liverpool and Finland are mildly interesting; but Hazem Azmys discussion of Egyptian Theatre opened up a fascinating window onto a world I was unfamiliar with.On the whole; it was a great book for a person with a particular interest in the subject of Theatre History; but it might prove frustrating to a general reader.0 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Badly TitledBy M. WahrmanMaybe this is a Companion to Theatre Historiography; but I doubt it.
