Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The purpose of this book is to explore the emergence of Greek tragedy on the American stage until the 1950 through the intellectual processes and contributions of Greek, Italian and Jewish community theatre. We trace Greek tragedy on the American stage, exploring the intricate processes of community's theatre identities. The study aims to analyze the distinct yet related efforts of early Americans to intersect with Greek tragedy, searching simultaneously for the identities of immigrants. Ancient drama became a vehicle for major developments in American theater as individual immigrant communities began their own theatrical endeavors. The tracing of tragedy as form and concept follows the evolutionary course of domestic social, aesthetic and political ferments according to the international trends and currents and draws conclusion about the early Greek, Italian and Jewish immigrant's theatre in relationship to the first plays of American scene. Ultimately, community theater acquired identity by intersecting with the spiritual reception of tragedy in America.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -In the past century, community engagement has been part of a stand-alone forced assimilation plan, where indigenous knowledge and heritage has been rejected and suppressed in higher and tertiary institutions of education leading to decentralization and colonisation of knowledge. Due to historical institutional mistrust, misconceptions and lack of resources, the concept of community engagement continues to be received with mixed reactions across tertiary institutions. Coloniality continue to be observed not just in community engagement practices but also in the manner in which gender disparities are handled at doctorate level. In Zimbabwe, there has been a huge movement of women into the academic space. While this space was once dominated by men, the creation of policies that promote gender equality have seen an escalation in the involvement of women not just in institutions of higher learning but specifically in the doctorate academic levels. This has created discourse in scholarship. This book stands at the intersection of decolonisation and gender disparities in higher and tertiary institutions particularly in developing countries of Southern Africa.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.
