Description

This volume presents for the first time in book form, two exciting plays by Gabriel Marcel: a powerful one act drama, The Lantern, that is in the permanent repertory of the Comedie FranAaise, and, for the first time in English, a full-length comedy in three acts, Colombyre or The Torch of Peace.

This work also includes as its foreword a previously unpublished essay by Gabriel Marcel, From Comic Theater to Musical Creation, in which Marcel analyzes the role of comedy in his theater.

An introduction by Joseph Cunnen situates Marcel's theater in the context of modern drama.

An editor's preface introduces the two plays, and a list of Marcel's thirty plays completes the volume. Original illustrations, The Lantern and Colombyre have been sketched by Steve Healy.
