<br/><br/> "The gaps in our knowledge of the history of theatrical performance would seem to be apparent, but few scholars are working to fill them. Marvin Carlson is one of these. Although the fact that Goethe was a director as well as a playwright is generally known, it has been very difficult to find exact information in English on his staging and his work with actors. Now Carlson has written a detailed chronological study that provides us with documentation on all aspects of the Weimar theatre and makes clear Goethe's great importance for the history of directing." -- The Drama Review, 1979; 23(3), pàgina 116  Sumari: 1.
