Reseña del libro "Staging the Lyric: Modern and Contemporary Experiments with Verse Drama (en Inglés)"

Verse drama is not a dead form, but very much alive on the contemporary stage. Drawing on plays from throughout the English-speaking world, including the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland and the Caribbean, Staging the Lyric seeks to explain the 21st-century resurgence of Anglophone verse drama, tracing it back to an experimental impulse that is present in the modernist verse drama of a century ago. Covering major writers including Derek Walcott, Seamus Heaney, Sylvia Plath, Wole Soyinka, Djuna Barnes, and ntozake shange, it also encompasses lesser known and more recent poets and playwrights. This modern verse drama differs from its ancient and Elizabethan antecedents insofar as it is understood not as a genre in its own right, but as a hybrid of the lyric and the dramatic. Both modernist and contemporary writers take advantage of this hybridity as fertile ground for experimentation. While they differ in their ideology and form, Sarah Berry contends that they are united by a common impulse to explore the relationship between lyric and dramatic elements on the stage and what these two different modes of writing afford. To demonstrate this continuity, Berry traces a genealogy from contemporary plays by Joanna Laurens, Joyelle McSweeney, and David Grieg back to W.B. Yeats, T.S. Eliot, and W.H. Auden to reveal that the tensions that animate verse drama have stayed the same, even as the strategies for staging them have evolved. The book is divided into three sections, each treating one feature that has been used to define the lyric: its mode of enunciation - 'Voice' - its attention to the material properties of language at the expense of communication - 'Words' - and its temporality - 'Time'. Within these sections, the chapters compare contemporary plays with modernist ones that experiment with the same point of tension between the lyric and the dramatic.
