About the Book
Semiotics and the Drama Text is an invaluable handbook that bridges the gap between dramatic texts and the theory and practice of drama in performance. This work explores the meanings and methods of semiotics, offering a comprehensive overview of its applications to drama.
The book delves into how semiotic principles can inform and shape our understanding of dramatic texts, from ancient works like those of Sophocles to modern playwrights such as Caryl Churchill. With its in-depth analysis of key texts and semiotic methods, this book is a crucial resource for students and scholars of drama, theatre theory, and performance studies.
Ideal for both newcomers and those with experience in the field, it provides clear explanations of complex theoretical concepts, making it an essential reference for anyone interested in the intersection of drama and semiotics.
