"Never before, in the entire history of the American theater, has so much of the truth of Black people's lives been seen on the stage," observed James Baldwin shortly before A Raisin in the Sun opened on Broadway in 1959. This edition presents the fully restored, uncut version of Hansberry's landmark work with an introduction by Robert Nemiroff. Lorraine Hansberry's award-winning drama about the hopes and aspirations of a struggling, working-class family living on the South Side of Chicago connected profoundly with the psyche of Black America—and changed American theater forever. The play's title comes from a line in Langston Hughes's poem "Harlem," which warns that a dream deferred might "dry up/like a raisin in the sun." "The events of every passing year add resonance to A Raisin in the Sun," said The New York Times. "It is as if history is conspiring to make the play a classic."

From legendary playwright August Wilson comes the powerful, stunning dramatic bestseller that won him critical acclaim, including the Tony Award for Best Play and the Pulitzer Prize. Troy Maxson is a strong man, a hard man. He has had to be to survive. Troy Maxson has gone through life in an America where to be proud and black is to face pressures that could crush a man, body and soul. But the 1950s are yielding to the new spirit of liberation in the 1960s, a spirit that is changing the world Troy Maxson has learned to deal with the only way he can, a spirit that is making him a stranger, angry and afraid, in a world he never knew and to a wife and son he understands less and less. This is a modern classic, a book that deals with the impossibly difficult themes of race in America, set during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 60s. Now an Academy Award-winning film directed by and starring Denzel Washington, along with Academy Award and Golden Globe winner Viola Davis.

A STUDY OF THE THREE ACT STRUCTURE - THE WIZARD OF OZ, CITIZEN KANE, CASABLANCA, CHINATOWN covers the history of cinematic practice of the three act structure during both the World War II period (1939-1945) and the Post-War period (1945-present). This is accomplished through a pure and comprehensive analysis highlighting the most popular classical films during the period and Hegelian dialectics, which vigorously analyses the narrative development of each film in detail. Ryota explains narrative factors leading to stability and dynamics in Hollywood cinema tales and includes close analyses of plot points, sequences and acts. As it ranges across decades, examining classics like The Wizard of Oz, Citizen Kane, and Casablanca as well as Roman Polanski’s masterpiece Chinatown, this book provides a vivid and engaging interpretation of how Hollywood moviemakers have adapted to the Western tradition of cinematic storytelling that continues to engage audiences around the world. Moreover, throughout this book the author treats the three-act structure as a film narrative structure in completed form. Thus, it differs from ordinary screenplay-instruction books.
