Abstract

Peter Brook and Charles Marowitz are among many directors who have acknowledged their debt to Jan Kott, finding in his analogies between Shakespearean situations and those in modern life and drama seeds of vital new stage-conceptions. Readers all over world-Shakespeare Our Contemporary has been translated into nineteen languages since it appeared in 1961-have similarly found their responses to Shakespeare broadened and enriched. Mary McCarthy called work the best, most alive, radical book about Shakespeare in at least a generation.
