    Ariane Mnouchkine and the Théâtre du Soleil

    No full text
    This is the first full-length study of the renowned French theatre director Ariane Mnouchkine and her company, the Théâtre du Soleil. Mnouchkine first came to the attention of the English-speaking world with her 1970 production about the French Revolution, '1789', and later with her Shakespeare cycle influenced by Japanese and Indian theatre techniques, which was seen at the Olympic Arts Festival in Los Angeles in 1984. Today Mnouchkine is recognised as one of the first women directors to achieve an international reputation and her productions, spanning from Shakespeare to contemporary drama, have been widely acclaimed as being in the forefront of twentieth-century theatre. Having worked with Mnouchkine's company in 1985, Adrian Kiernander was in a unique position to observe her directorial style and working methods. In this fascinating study, which includes an interview with Mnouchkine, Kiernander analyses the elements which inform her work as well as the impact she has had on modern theatre. The book will be of interest to theatre practitioners, students and scholars of drama and theatre history and French studies, as well as to the general reader. It includes a chronology of Mnouchkine's productions and theatre career and is illustrated with photographs from productions

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
