Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a spirited defense of theater and acting in the face of philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau's critique. The author, identified only as a comedian, counters Rousseau's argument that theater corrupts morals. Rousseau had claimed that plays encourage bad behavior by making vice appear glamorous and virtue dull, but the author argues that, on the contrary, theater can teach valuable lessons about right and wrong, and can inspire people to be better. The author also takes issue with Rousseau's assertion that actors are immoral people, arguing that they are in fact some of the most virtuous members of society. The author's witty and engaging style makes this book a pleasure to read, and his arguments are sure to spark lively debate among readers interested in the role of theater in society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282964191_0
