Resumen: |
Audio Drama and Modernism rastrea el desarrollo del drama sonoro polÃtico y modernista durante los primeros 40 años del siglo XX. Demuestra cómo los pioneros de la era del fonógrafo hicieron contribuciones significativas e innovadoras a la ficción sonora antes, durante y después de la Gran Guerra. Con sorprendente detalle, Tim Crook examina destacados escritores y autores de radio modernistas británicos, revelando cómo negociaron su agitación contemporánea contra las fuerzas de la contención institucional y la censura dramática. El libro cuenta la historia de figuras clave como Russell Hunting, quien después de ser encarcelado por hacer "pornografÃa sonora" en los EE. UU., viajó a Gran Bretaña para ser pionero en la comedia sonora y el montaje en la era anterior a la radio; Reginald Berkeley, que escribió la primera obra pacifista de larga duración para la BBC en 1925; y el Director General Bridson, Olive Shapley y Joan Littlewood, quienes lucharon por dar una voz marxista a las clases trabajadoras en la radio británica. |

Summary : |
Audio Drama and Modernism traces the development of political and modernist sound drama during the first 40 years of the 20th Century. It demonstrates how pioneers in the phonograph age made significant, innovative contributions to sound fiction before, during, and after the Great War. In stunning detail, Tim Crook examines prominent British modernist radio writers and auteurs, revealing how they negotiated their agitational contemporaneity against the forces of Institutional containment and dramatic censorship. The book tells the story of key figures such as Russell Hunting, who after being jailed for making 'sound pornography' in the USA, travelled to Britain to pioneer sound comedy and montage in the pre-Radio age; Reginald Berkeley who wrote the first full-length anti-war play for the BBC in 1925; and D.G. Bridson, Olive Shapley and Joan Littlewood who all struggled to give a Marxist voice to the working classes on British radio. |
