Even more troubling, it maps a collapse of the principles of Western liberalism. This is heady, thrilling, and, yes, deeply troubling stuff--and the epitome of critical scholarship."" --Mike Sell, Indiana University of Pennsylvania--Mike Sell ""Thought-provoking and drawing effectively on a wide range of scholarship . . . the author's reading of these performances (and their reception) provides nuance and detail that works well for someone familiar with those performances or encountering them for the first time."" --Susan Bennett, University of Calgary--Susan Bennett" Author InformationStefka G.
