Copertina di Tracy C. Davis: Actresses as Working Women (PDF)

Using historical evidence as well as personal accounts, Tracy C. Davis examines the reality of conditions for `ordinary’ actresses, their working environments, employment patterns and the reasons why acting continued to be such a popular, though insecure, profession. Firmly grounded in Marxist and feminist theory she looks at representations of women on stage, and the meanings associated with and generated by them.
