Fascinating series on Noh plays set in modern times, but still faithful to the spirit of the originals. Mishio may have been crazier than a Betsybug, but man did he know how to write! He had the observant, sensitive, and somewhat-addled soul of a true poet. The influence of the Japanese classics and in particular their poetry in these works is evident. It's worth reading just for his remake of the Noh classic "Sotoba Komachi." This volume is available for free rental at Open Library. ( )
"Yukio Mishima, while preserving the intensity, sensitivity, charm, and symbolism of the centuries-old dramatic form, adds contemporary ideas, conditions, and dialogue which make it possible for us to identify with the plot and characters." ContienePremios
As long ago as 1916 William Butler Yeats and Ezra Pound were excitedly discovering Noh plays. In 1922 Aurthur Waley's fine translations appeared in a collection titled The Noh Plays of Japan. Since then, interest has grown steadily in this unique art form. The emotion of these plays is so communicable that one can imagine them staged anywhere in the world. Or they can be read and reread in Donald Keene's excellent translation. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
