AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Australian Theatre, Modernism and Patrick White: Governing Culture, by Denise Varney and Sandra D’Urso, is a significant and unusual book. Studies of Australian playwrights are no longer published with the frequency and focus they once were. The Australian Playwrights series (now edited by Varney at Brill) began with a series of monographs on the playwrights of the ‘New Wave’. Since the mid-1990s, as the emphasis of research shifted towards performance, the series has extended beyond playwrights to include production histories, companies and venues, actors, directors and industry sectors.'

For there need be none. A general issue demands a different curatorial approach to that of a special issue with a focus on a particular theme, subject or question. The editor calls for submissions, evaluates those submissions primarily according to one’s judgement of that nebulous and contested criteria of ‘quality’. They send drafts to peer reviewers, and make final decisions based (again) on the ‘quality’ of re-drafts, and on available space.' (Yoni Prior : Editorial introduction) 2019 pg. 296-302
