Produktbeschreibung
This study of Egyptian theatre and its narrative construction explores how representations of Egypt are created of and within theatrical means.

They study the process of rewriting, representations of foreign plays on stage, and representations of the Egyptian revolution, bringing vital coverage to developments in theatre translation.
