Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'An Book of Dramatic Costume' is a comprehensive guide to the historical and practical aspects of dressing for the stage, serving as an essential resource for theater professionals, educators, and historians. Authored by Edith Dabney and C. M. Wise, this work provides a detailed examination of clothing through various historical periods, specifically tailored for the unique requirements of dramatic production.The text explores how costume serves as a vital element of characterization and world-building in theater, covering a wide range of eras to offer insights into the silhouettes, fabrics, and accessories that define different ages and cultures. Beyond a mere historical survey, the book emphasizes the practical application of design, addressing how garments function under stage lighting and within the physical movements of a performance. By bridging the gap between historical accuracy and theatrical effectiveness, this volume remains a significant reference for anyone involved in the art of storytelling through dress.
