Kathakali Dance - Theatre (English, Hard Cover)
is A Visual Narrative of Indian Sacred Mime written by Gopalakrishnan. Kathakali, a relatively recent performing art with a 400-year-old heritage, is one of the great artistic wonders of the world. Originating in Kerala in the southwest corner of India, it vividly unveils the stories of larger-than-life characters gods, and demons of Hindu epics with an aesthetic combination of dance, theatre, mime, acting, instrumental and vocal music, and above all the pageantry of extremely bewitching costumes.
Kathakali Dance-Theatre, written by one of the highly regarded writers of our times on Kerala arts traditions, records the art of Kathakali comprehensively, right from the scenario that paved the way for Kathakali’s origin and development to its present history. The book chronicles its various facets—the acting, music, and costumes, crucial contributions of the masters, momentous incidences, evolution of styles, riveting anecdotes, and related socio-political issues affecting Kerala. The first-hand personal rendition of the author’s experience and the detailed glossary makes it immensely readable. Full of photographs depicting the masters of the art, green room activities, and the vibrant theatre of Kathakali, this book will be a treasure trove of information for uninitiated readers, art scholars, theatre buffs, potential researchers, and students keen on the art and its future.
