"Theatre and war have long been bedfellows. The principal purpose of this book is not to explore theatre that is about war, but instead it focuses on the relationship between theatre & war: how they feed into and inform each other, from rehearsal to post-production analysis. This bookbuilds on the premise that theatre and war have always overlapped, in that this will only continue into the future. Guided by four key questions, this clear and far-reaching volume asks: how have the tools of theatre been used in the waging of war?; how have the tools of waging war been used in the making of performance?; what are the 'shared interests' of theatre and war?; and how has performance become a militarized paradigm?"--

The time is right for a critical reassessment of Cold War culture both because its full cultural impact remains unprocessed and because some of the chief paradigms for understanding that culture confuse rather than clarify. A collection of the work of some of the best cultural critics writing about the period, American Literature and Culture in an Age of Cold War reveals a broad range of ways that American cultural production from the late 1940's to the present might be understood in relation to the Cold War.
