Theatre and Holy ScriptShimon Levy Sussex Academic Press, 1999 - 262 من الصفحات Nineteen essays discuss the interrelationships between theatrical performance and religious experience--with primarily a Judeo- Christian emphasis, though the editor points out the potential for exploration in connection with all the world religions. Among the topics discussed: holy space and representational place in the tenth- century, Norwegian rock art as the first sources of theater in Europe, the sacramental aesthetic in the plays of Dorothy L. Sayers, religious implications of drama from the Holocaust, and holy scriptures and subversive theater in Poland. Levy is a theater director and author with profound enthusiasm for his topic.
