The Complete Works of Kuo Pao Kun ⑥: Commentaries
$25.00
Drama doyen Kuo Pao Kun was not just a playwright.
During his lifetime, he had constructed his own views towards culture and humanity. Through his teaching and numerous arts and cultural activities, he had influenced many theatre practitioners and intellectuals in various cultural fields with his views. Such influence had even reached some of the ruling elites.
This volume is a collection of commentaries written by him on his own and others’ creative works. For any research on Kuo Pao Kun, as a cultural “engineer”, this collection will serve as an important and relevant reference.

The Complete Works of Kuo Pao Kun ⑦: Papers and Speeches
$25.00This book compiles Kuo Pao Kun’s papers and speeches about the development of theatre, and his cultural and artistic exploration.
Looking at Kuo Pao Kun’s theatre works, most people believe that his cultural and social philosophy changed dramatically after his detention under the Internal Security Act from 1976 to 1980. Yet the difference may not be as large as we think. While the tone and expression of his early articles are quite different from comments made in the 1980s, many of Kuo’s well-known views on theatre and culture are reflected in his pre-detention writings. At its most fundamental, his ideology has remained consistent throughout the years.
