| Opplysninger | Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 20 Jan 2022).. - <i>Rabindranath Tagore's Drama in the Perspective of Indian Theatre</i> maps Tagore's place in the Indian dramatic/performance traditions by examining unexplored critical perspectives on his drama such as his texts as performance texts; their exploration in multimedia; reflections of Indian culture in his plays; comparison with playwrights; theatrical links to his world of music and performance genres; his plays in the context of cross-cultural, intercultural theatre; the playwright as a poet-performer-composer and their interconnections; and his drama on the Indian stage. <br><br>The book explores both dramatic as well as theatrical traditions in Tagore's plays by discussing vital issues on Tagore's drama including gender politics; Tagore's poetic tradition of dramatic action, time and space; his use of myth humour and satire in the Indian dramatic milieu and discussing Tagore and his contemporaries; modern Indian drama and also the nation and Tagore's drama. The book also identifies Tagore's drama of performance art; his stories that inspired many film creations; furthers the view of Tagore's theatre as the creations of a poet-dramatist, poet-translator, dramatist-producer, actor-singer-choreographer and dramatist-scenographer, all the while not missing the vitality of the dramatist as seen in his intercultural performance/s; his use of environ, mise en scène and the theatrical milieu; and last but not the least, the modern productions of Tagore plays.
