About this book

Modern Drama in Theory and Practice: Volume 3, Expressionism and Epic Theatre by Styan, J. L.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780521296304.

Büchner is the forerunner of expression, followed by Wedekind and Strindberg. The style is then traced from Kaiser and Toller to ONeill, Wilder and the later OCasey. Important producers are Reinhardt and Meyerhold. Epic theatre is studied from Piscator and Brecht to Dürrenmatt and Weiss, Arden and Bond, and is seen as flourishing in offshoots of documentary theatre. This book was first published in 1981.
