Tadeusz Kantor\'s ‘The Dead Class\'. A monograph of the play
Justyna Michalik-Tomala
The work (...) is based above all on a very careful and thoughtfully developed analysis and interpretation of a variety of sources connected with The Dead Class, including its pre-texts, con-texts, and cultural epi-texts. The author shows an excellent command of the scholarship on Kantor and The Dead Class, while convincingly demonstrating how much remains to be discovered by turning one's focus to different sources (and contexts) in such a way as to view them anew and identify relationships between them that have previously gone unnoticed. Of fundamental importance to the book's thesis is the fact that it presents for the first time sources that have until now remained unpublished, the Elbląska Notebook (...) chief among them.

The author successfully looks at the mythic performance from a new and fresh perspective.
