He cogently summarizes the texts, drawing comparisons freely while avoiding evaluation. From the mid-1920s his pronouncements on drama and theatre began to take on a sociological character, and the end of that decade saw the first of his attempts to establish systematic links between Marxist ideology and Epic Theatre, links which gave rise to such terms as the ‘theatre of the scientific age’ or ‘dialectical theatre’. Carlson asserts that certain central issues recur in the works of all the major theorists: the relation of theatre to society as a whole, the relation of theatre to questions of value, and the ways in which theatre imitates life. He explores theories not only of genre and dramatic construction, but also of production and performance, including acting, directing, design, and reception. A great reference book for theatre theory through the major eras of the evolution of performance and production.
