Reseña del libro "The World of Karel Capek's Rossum's Universal Robots: A Survey of Global Stagings and Media Adaptations (en Inglés)"
In 1920 author Karel Capek introduced the word "robot" to the world in the famed play Rossum's Universal Robots (or R.U.R. as it is often abbreviated). For its place in the evolution of science and technology and its commentary on such topics as what it means to be human and the role of the worker in society, the play continues to draw interest around the world. This book provides an in-depth examination of R.U.R.'s place in the entertainment world and the science fiction universe, detailing its performances and adaptations in 29 countries. For the play's explosive first three decades, it exhaustively covers theatrical appearances on six continents, groundbreaking achievements in radio and television, and planned films. It also addresses two unique Russian derivatives on stage and on celluloid. Cast lists and reviews are embellished with not only biographies but personal recollections by the participants, rare photos and a look at archival material. For the period after 1950, each country's chapter summarizes significant events in the R.U.R. timeline.
