“More than any other contemporary British playwright, Tom Stoppard populates his plays -- from Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead to The Invention of Love (his portrait of the poet and scholar A. E. Housman) -- with characters from life and literature. But one cannot always tell the difference between those who are real and those who are imaginary.” RealPlayCharacterLiteratureDifferencesPoetBritishInventionContemporaryScholarImaginaryTomsPortraitsPlaywrightRosencrantz And Guildenstern Author:Mel Gussow
“The historian must be a poet; not to find, but to find again; not to breathe life into beings, into imaginary deeds, but in order to re-animate and revive that which has been; to represent what time and space have placed at a distance from us.” Has BeensOrderSpacePoetDistanceDeedsBreatheHistorianImaginaryTime And SpaceRevive Author:Philibert Joseph Roux
