A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE PB

Miller, Arthur 1915-2005

Εκδότης Methuen , ISBN 9781350245785

The law is nature. The law is only a word for what has a right to happen. When the law is wrong it's because it's unnatural, but in this case it is natural and a river will drown you if you buck it now.

Let her go. And bless her. Set among Italian-Americans on the Brooklyn waterfront, A View from the Bridge is the story of longshoreman Eddie Carbone.

When his wife's cousins arrive as illegal immigrants from Italy, he is honoured to take them into his house. But when his niece begins to fall in love with one of them, Eddie grows increasingly suspicious, eventually precipitating his violation of the moral and cultural codes of his community and leading to the play's tragic finale. With its examination of the themes of sexuality, responsibility, betrayal and vengeance, A View from the Bridge is Miller at his best and a modern classic.

This new edition includes an introduction by Julie Vatain-Corfdir that explores the play's production history as well as the dramatic, thematic, and academic debates that surround it; a must-have resource for any student exploring A View from the Bridge.

Συγγραφέας

O Άρθουρ Μίλλερ (Οκτώβριος 1915 - Φεβρουάριος 2005), θεωρείται από τους μεγαλύτερους δραματουργούς του εικοστού αιώνα. Πολέμιος του μακαρθισμού στις ΗΠΑ και συγγραφέας με προοδευτικές απόψεις, γνώρισε παγκόσμια αναγνώριση με τα έργα του: "Ήταν όλοι τους παιδιά μου" (1947), "Ο θάνατος του εμποράκου" (1949), "Οι μάγισσες του Σάλεμ" (1953), "Ψηλά απ’ τη γέφυρα" (1955), "Μετά την πτώση" (1964), "Επεισόδιο στο Βισύ" (1966), "Το ταβάνι του αρχιεπισκόπου" (1972), "Ο τελευταίος Γιάνκη" (1993), "Το σπασμένο γυαλί" (1994). Το 2001 εκδόθηκε η συλλογή δοκιμίων "Echoes Down the Corridor; Collected Essays 1944-2000", που αναδεικνύουν τη σημασία και την επίδραση που άσκησε, εκτός από θεατρικός συγγραφέας, ως διανοούμενος και πολιτιστικός σχολιαστής.
