Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The Broadview Anthology of Drama: Plays from the Western Theatre is a chronological presentation of 43 plays in two volumes, ranging from the ancient theatre world to the present day. Each chapter focuses on a specific period and begins with an insightful introduction sketching the historical and theatrical landscape of that period. Contextualization for each play is provided through a thorough account of the literary and dramatic background of the play along with clear and comprehensive annotation. In addition, the editors have provided a glossary of terms used in the anthology to better equip students with a vocabulary for discussing the world of the stage.

The historical prefaces to the plays in this volume outshine most theatre history texts out there. Saved my (hide) when paired with an inferior history text. Intelligent AND readable, my college students and I thank Wise and Walker for their insights.

I must admit, I have not yet read the Broadview Anthology, but I once took a theatre history class with Jen Wise and she was great. She really was one of the best prof's Ive had the pleasure of learning from.
