Description

This comprehensive scholarly examination explores Friedrich Durrenmatt's literary output through the lens of theatrical practice and scenic imagery. Timo Tiusanen's critical study reconciles the Swiss dramatist's apparently conflicting statements about his central artistic concerns by analysing thirteen original stage plays, eight radio plays, and five adaptations alongside four theoretical books on theatre and politics. The analysis extends to Durrenmatt's six books of prose, providing a thorough interpretation of his career development and creative methodology. Published by Princeton University Press as part of the Princeton Legacy Library series, this 1562-page volume serves as an essential reference for scholars, students, and readers seeking to understand one of twentieth-century literature's most innovative and challenging playwrights. The study employs the special concept of scenic image to unlock connections between Durrenmatt's diverse works and his evolving artistic vision across multiple genres and mediums.
