Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Oversized. First American edition. Retired library book with usual library markings. Orange buckram binding. Extensively illustrated in black-and-white and color. From the Foreword: To modern man, moving ceaselessly in a world peopled by the creations of his detached intellect, the puppet remains an expression of his yearning for magic and poetry. Itself in a state of continuous change, it lends form to the changing character of man. Over the last few years that little creature of cloth and cardboard, whose mystery time and again we try to unravel, has clearly acquired more matter-of-factness without, on the other hand, losing its naivete"; it has become more subtle witho at forfeiting its popular ch aracter, and more poetic without losing its spiritual substance. What changes will puppetry-that age-old art whose means have already been transformed so fundamentally-undergo in the future? Is it perhaps on the threshold of a new era, or will it develop into that total work of art predicted by our idealists, when all branches of art will fuse into a single entirely individual art category? The international editorial board of this book, production of which was encouraged by the UNIMA Praesidium, hopes in this way to promote a first symposium to discuss this and other topical questions of puppetry. We therefore approached all our colleagues with the request to support our project. The articles submitted to us have been arranged around specific themes, thus preserving the full independence of each contribution. The illustrations are arranged like a journey across the continents-enabling us to gain an overall view, to learn more about one another, and to allow others to make our acquaintance. We hope that we may have succeeded for the first time in providing a general prospectus of the world of puppetry today, making provision for the most varied traditions and forms, an artistic universe embracing different views of the world and of art. Thus the traditional classical line and contemporary experiments, the daring novelty of new forms, may co-exist one alongside the other. A testimony to an age in transition, the present book has endeavoured to bear in mind the worldwide character of our ideas. To all those who have so obligingly met our requests and contributed to the success of our journey we express our sincere thanks. 228 pages.
