new Russian theater journal in preparation

[John Glad]

To all those interested in the Russian theatre, to experts and
aficionados,  professors and graduate students we announce a new
international academic journal

ТЕАТРЪ: Russian Theatre Past and Present.

ТЕАТРЪ will be entirely devoted to both historical and current topics in
the Russian theatre.   Sections will include: book reviews, performance
reviews, bibliographies, articles, and historical documents.
Interviews with the Russian directors and actors as well as occasional
publications of new Russian plays will also be featured. Special
attention will be paid to the analysis of theatrical texts.

ТЕАТРЪ will publish  manuscripts in all major research languages
including Russian.  For the first time Russian theatre scholars and
critics will have a chance to address the international audiences
directly, unencumbered by inadequate translations. ТЕАТРЪ will be a new
type of a journal combining the clarity of American academic prose and
metaphorical style of Russian criticism.  ТЕАТРЪ plans to build a
professional network for all Russian theatre scholars throughout the
world.

Major scholars and practitioners who already joined ТЕАТРЪ's  advisory
board, include

Prof. Alexei Bartoshevich, Moscow
Lev Dodin, artistic director of the Maly Drama Theatre, St Petersburg
Prof. Anatoly Smeliansky , Moscow
Prof. J. Douglas Clayton, U of Ottawa
John Freedman, Moscow Times staff writer
Prof. Daniel Gerould, CUNY Graduate Center
Prof. Harai Golomb, Tel-Aviv U
Prof. Spencer Golub, Brown U

ТЕАТРЪ will begin as a refereed journal of approximately 125-150 pages.
It is scheduled for publication by Fall 2000.
