{"product_id":"a-global-dolls-house-ibsen-and-distant-visions-9781349683789","title":"A Global Doll's House: Ibsen and Distant Visions","description":"This book addresses a deceptively simple question: what accounts for the global success of \u003ci\u003eA Doll's House\u003c\/i\u003e, Henrik Ibsen's most popular play? Using maps, networks, and images to explore the world history of the play's production, this question is considered from two angles: cultural transmission and adaptation. Analysing the play's transmission reveals the social, economic, and political forces that have secured its place in the canon of world drama; a comparative study of the play's 135-year production history across five continents offers new insights into theatrical adaptation. Key areas of research include the global tours of nineteenth-century actress-managers, Norway's soft diplomacy in promoting gender equality, representations of the female performing body, and the sexual vectors of social change in theatre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julie Holledge,Jonathan Bollen,Frode Helland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/21\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 233\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.52d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781349683789\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLed by Professor Julie Holledge (Centre for Ibsen Studies, University of Oslo), this collaborative project brings together Ibsen specialists with scholars in digital humanities and theatre studies: Dr Jonathan Bollen (University of New South Wales, Australia), Director of \u003ci\u003eAusStage\u003c\/i\u003e, the Australian database for researching performance (2006-13); Professor Frode Helland, (Director of the Centre for Ibsen Studies, University of Oslo, Norway), author of \u003ci\u003eIbsen in Practice\u003c\/i\u003e (2015); and Professor Joanne Tompkins (University of Queensland, Australia), author of \u003ci\u003eTheatre's Heterotopias\u003c\/i\u003e (2014), and co-author with Holledge of \u003ci\u003eWomen's Intercultural Performance\u003c\/i\u003e (2001), winner of the Rob Jordan Book Prize.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Palgrave MacMillan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44227045392499,"sku":"9.78135E+12","price":149.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_078cb282-5b3e-4119-83e8-2749359a9d66.jpg?v=1768398569","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/a-global-dolls-house-ibsen-and-distant-visions-9781349683789","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
