Description

Explore the complex world of Friedrich Durrenmatt through this scholarly analysis from Princeton University Press. For years, scholars have struggled to interpret the conflicting statements made by Durrenmatt regarding his central themes. This study by Timo Tiusanen provides clarity by examining the author's deep connection to the theater. This work analyzes thirteen original stage plays, eight radio plays, and five adaptations. By applying the concept of the "scenic image," the text connects Durrenmatt's creative practice to his theoretical writings. The study also examines four of his books on theater and politics, alongside six books of prose, to provide a complete view of his career. Part of the Princeton Legacy Library, this book is an essential resource for students, researchers, and literature enthusiasts looking to understand the relationship between Durrenmatt's dramatic works and his prose. It offers a structured way to look at how his various writings reflect his broader views on society and the stage.
