Wei Zhang considers how Brecht’s plays have been adapted\/appropriated by Chinese theatre artists to speak to the sociopolitical, economic, and cultural developments in China and how such endeavors reflect and result from dynamic interactions between Chinese philosophy, ethics, and aesthetics, especially as embodied in traditional \u003ci\u003exiqu\u003c\/i\u003e and the Brechtian concepts of estrangement (\u003ci\u003eVerfremdungseffekt\u003c\/i\u003e) and political theatre. In examining these Brecht adaptations, Zhang offers an interdisciplinary study that contributes to the fields of comparative drama\/theatre studies, intercultural studies, and performance studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2020-04-09\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030377779\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-37778-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 200\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47511480696972,"sku":"9783030377779","price":80.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030377779.jpg?v=1775961213","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783030377779","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
