This collection is designed to illuminate and invigorate discussion about Augusto Boals work and the transformative potential of theatre. It includes two interviews with Boal; and two pieces of his own writing.

A peculiar view on heraldic designsBy J. FlatonJohn Berglings 1;400 heraldic designs; published in 1913; walks a thin line between trying to depict heraldic designs in a pleasing simple way; and the truly awful victoriana as done by the likes of Fairbairn. His historic interpretation leaves something to be desired (like showing shields with crests only; which is simply not done); and a lot of the American arms are drawn with slightly more Hollywood than Heraldry in mind. But sometimes you can feel some of the original power of heraldry flowing underneath his drawings.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
