Now, in an authoritative 2-volume edition, LOA collects the plays that reveal a prophetic figure in American life & letters: a writer of generous sympathies & uncompromising frankness who reached wide audiences w/ plays that revolutionized the themes & styles of the modern theater. This 2nd volume traces Williams' career as it evolved in his adventurous & sometimes shocking later works, including "Orpheus Descending", "Suddenly Last Summer", & "Sweet Bird of Youth", plays that stirred controversy when first produced because of their concern w/ acts of horrific violence; the satiric marital comedy "Period of Adjustment"; "The Night of the Iguana", a moving drama set in Mexico that contains some of Williams' most lyric writing, & "The Eccentricities of a Nightingale", a re-imagining of the earlier "Summer & Smoke". "The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore", w/ its use of Kabuki-like stylization, began a more experimental phase of Williams' writing, represented here by "Kingdom of Earth" (also known as "The Seven Descents of Myrtle"), "The Mutilated", "Small Craft Warnings", & "Out Cry". In late plays such as "A Lovely Sunday for Creve Coeur" & the autobiographical "Vieux Carré", Williams returned to many of his earlier themes & settings. This edition includes a newly researched chronology of Tennessee Williams' life, explanatory notes (including cast lists of many of the original productions), & an essay on the texts. * ABOUT THE EDITORS: MEL GUSSOW(1933-2005), who was a drama critic, a cultural writer at The NYT, & author of several books including "Edward Albee: A Singular Journey". KENNETH HOLDICH is professor emeritus at the University of New Orleans, editor since 1989 of the Tennessee Williams Journal, & the author of "In Old New Orleans". * THE LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an award-winning, nonprofit program dedicated to publishing America's best & most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts.

Small-8°, paperback edition. Condizione: Gut. 55 pages, frontispiece, text in English, table of contents, browned due to age and signs of use, No poet is less in need of an interpreter than Wordsworth. There are certainly poems in this selection which will not yield their meaning until they have been many times read, but for the most part Wordsworth makes himself abundantly plain. Some poets, including many of the best ones, conceal the clues to ther meaning as deviously as a be taken generally at their face value. Even whenthe theme is a profound or difficult as immortality, his statement of it is seldom complicated, for Wordsworts poetry camemore fromthe heart than from the intellect.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. Reissued with New Introduction. Paperback. Slight crease to corner front cover. Introduction by Jenni Calder. Wordsworth's poetry reveals his close affinity to the natural world in which he discerned a sense of moral purpose. And, in his contemplation of people, too, he constantly sought the meaning in their fate. A deeply religious man, he saw poetry as a gift for interpreting these preoccupations and perhaps, above all, as the perfect medium for the expression of 'emotion recollected in tranquility'. This volume contains a selection of his best-known verse including two long excerpts from his great autobiographical poems, The Prelude and The Excursion. 192 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
