Description: Title: Reanimating Grief: Waking the Dead in Literature, Theatre and Performance Author: McEvoy, William Publisher: Manchester University Press Binding: Hardcover Pages: 208 Dimensions: 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.50d Product Weight: 0.86 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9781526176691 Reanimating grief is a wide-ranging study of the poetics of bereavement in theatre, literature and song. It examines the way cultural works reanimate the dead in the form of ghosts, memories or scenes of mourning, and uses critical and creative writing to express grief's subjectivity and uniqueness. It covers classic texts from Greek tragedy and Shakespeare to works by Anton Chekhov, Samuel Beckett, Enda Walsh, Sally Rooney and Maggie O'Farrell. The book argues that the return of the dead in theatre and fiction is an act of memorial and an expression of love that illustrates the relationship between art, enchantment and impossibility.
