Know about the book -

The Shakespearean Dramaturg(English, Electronic book text, Hartley Andrew James) is written by Hartley Andrew James and published by Palgrave USA. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1403981027 (ISBN 10) and 9781403981028 (ISBN 13).

This book marries a theoretical analysis of the issues underlying the role of the dramaturg with a thorough sense of the material conditions of theatrical production, from script editing and rehearsal room interactions to the preparation of program notes and audience lectures. Central to the project is a notion of authority defined not by text or author, but by the theatre itself. The result is a guide for the prospective dramaturg which also provides for the more general reader a unique case study of the nexus between the methods and assumptions of literary criticism and those of practical theatre.
