› Find signed collectible books: 'Antigone'
Antigone was originally produced in Paris in 1942, when France was occupied and part of Hitler's Europe. The play depicts an authoritarian regime which mirrors the predicament of the French people of the time. Based on Sophocles' ancient Greek tragedy, Antigone which was first performed in Athens in the 5th century BC, its theme was nevertheless topical. For in Antigone's faithfulness to her dead brother and his proper burial and her reiterated "No!" to the dictator Creon, the French audience saw its own resistance to the German occupation. The Germans allowed the play to be performed presumably because they found Creon's arguments for dictatorship so convincing. The play is regularly performed and studied around the world. "Anouilh is a poet, but not a poet of words: he is a poet of words-acted, of scenes-set, of players-performing" Peter Brook [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Jean Anouilh Five Plays'
The great french playwright jean anouilh (1910-87) wrote both "pink" bittersweet comedies and "black" tragic dramas. Jean anouilh five plays-the finest english-language anthology of his works-crackles with both his sharp wit and his icy cynicism. In antigone, his preeminent play and exemplar of his themes and style, he creates a disturbing world in which fate may be no more than a game of role-playing. Eurydice, the ermine, the rehearsal, romeo and jeannette are the other plays included in this edition [via]
