Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Cloister; A Play in Four Acts: Translated by Osman Edwards Poetry and drama, once intimately allied, have been so little associated of late years that a dramatist who cast his story in poetic form must usually look for appreciation to a staunch minority. To such a minority Emile Verhaeren, in his dramas at least, has hitherto addressed himself, shaping his vision in accordance with independent standards, and confidently awaiting the verdict of more fastidious taste than is fostered in the "commercial theatre." Naturally, therefore, the success of Le Cloître has been a striking but gradual succès d´estime enhanced by fine acting and enthusiastic criticism in those cities - Brussels, Paris, Berlin, Moscow, Manchester, and latterly, London - where special audiences are willing to welcome plays of special calibre. It is hoped that the present version, made in close collaboration with the author some fourteen years ago, and following with fidelity his alternations of elaborate lyric and staccato prose, will convey a fair suggestion of those unconveyable qualities which make the original unique. Le Cloître was written in 1899 and published in 1900. M. Reding produced it in the latter year at the Theatre Royal du Parc of Brussels, where it ran for a fortnight and has been often revived.
