Symbolist Theater: Formation of an Avant-garde (PAJ Books)

"Deak's impressive study of the Symbolist theatre--which includes extensive considerations of the Symbolist Movement and its role in the development of Modernism--is richly documented and gracefully written."--Karl Beckson, 'Times Literary Supplement' "This is an excellent and thoroughly-researched book on what remains a relatively neglected aspect of Symbolism and its modern repercussions."--Patrick McGuinness, 'French Studies'
