[1st ed] Jung's Advice to the Players: A Jungian Reading of Shakespeare's Problem Plays (Inscribed to Maria Irene Fornes)
First edition of Sally F. Porterfield’s Jungian analysis of several Shakespeare plays, published in 1994 by Greenwood Press. 8vo, hardcover, 119 pages. Inscribed to Maria Irene Fornes on the FFE (“To Irene, with my deepest thanks, respect, and affection/Sally 8/28/97”). Porterfield (1932-2017) was a teacher, director, theater critic, and writer. She wrote a book about Maria Irene Fornes (Black Cats and Green Trees: The Art of Maria Irene Fornes) and directed the Fornes play Sarita at the University of Hartford. Fornes (1930-2018) was a Cuban-American playwright, theater director, and teacher whose work in off-Broadway and experimental theater, including her legendary workshops, influenced and inspired Sam Shepard, Paula Vogel, Lanford Wilson, and Edward Albee, along with several generations of aspiring playwrights. Vogel contended “In the work of every American playwright at the end of the 20th century, there are only two stages: before she has read Maria Irene Fornes and after." Slight lean to spine. Minor rubbing to extremities. Faint price sticker residue to rear board.
