 | Representing Women by Linda Nochlin
Women -- as warriors, workers, mothers, sensual women, even absent women -- haunt nineteenth- and twentieth-century Western painting. This book brings together Linda Nochlin's most important and pioneering writings on the representation of women in art, as she considers works by Millet, Delacroix, Courbet, Degas, Seurat, Cassatt, and Kollwitz, among many others. In a riveting, partly autobiographical introduction, Nochlin argues for the honest virtues of an art history that rejects methodological presuppositions and for art historians who investigate the work before their eyes while focusing on its subject matter, informed by a sensitivity to its feminist spirit.

 | Stanislavsky Revealed by Sonia Moore
Other than Stanislavski`s own published work, the most widely read interpretation of his techniques remains Sonia Moore`s pioneering study, The Stanislavski System. Sonia Moore is on the frontier again now as she reveals the subtle tissue of ideas behind what Stanislavski regarded as his major breakthrough , the Method of Physical Actions. Moore has devoted the last decade in her world famous studio to an investigation of Stanislavski`s final technique. The result is the first detailed discussion of Moore`s own theory of psycho-physical unity which she has based on her intensive practical meditation on Stanislavski`s consummate conclusions about acting. Moore`s exhaustive analyses of Stanislavski`s original texts, letters, journals and production notes have yielded a revised understanding of Stanislavski`s method -- and his secret of inspiration -- the key to spontaneity on the stage and the path to fresh and naturalistic performance. This is not merely another technical aid , Moore explains; it is Stanislavski`s legacy to the theatre . AUTHOR: Sonia Moore
