Eleonora Duse, Eva Le Gallienne, & Acting as a Self-Transcendent ARt

by Christopher on June 20, 2010

First published by the Southern Illinois University Press in 1973, Eva Le Gallienne’s “The Mystic in the Theatre: Eleonora Duse” is still a best seller in Amazon’s Biographies & Memoirs > Arts & Literature > Theatre category.

Enchanting and beautiful, it’s about the profound impact an aged but still beautiful and powerful Duse had on Eva Le Gallienne, a celebrated actress in her own right. Acting is ultimately a self-transcendent art, and these two women were fiercely to committed to that art.
