What is Eleonora Duse : in life and art about?
This new biography of the Italian actress Eleonora Duse (1858-1924) traces her progress from obscurity to international acclaim as one of the most charismatic and influential actresses of her generation. A true pioneer in the theatre, Duse perfected an introspective style of acting which left critics and audiences spellbound. Vision and courage were the hallmark of her unique personality and no sacrifice was too great in her untiring quest for a -theatre of poetry-."
