Ebook: Learning to kneel: noh, modernism, and journeys in teaching

In this inventive mix of criticism, scholarship and personal reflection, Carrie J. Preston explores the nature of cross-cultural teaching, learning and performance and locates noh's influence on such canonical figures as Pound, Yeats, Brecht, Britten and Beckett. These writers learned about noh from an international cast of collaborators and Preston traces the ways in which Japanese and Western artists influenced one another in their work.
