Acting in the Night: Macbeth and the Places of the Civil War Hardcover - 2010
by Alexander Nemerov
From the rear cover
"A benchmark in the writing of art history and in studies of the Civil War, Acting in the Night occupies a category unto itself. It uniquely immerses the reader in a holistic experience of the Civil War and shows Nemerov as a consummate stylist in the field of American art history."--Kathleen Pyne, author of Modernism and the Feminine Voice
"This is a work of criticism that borders on poetry, a brilliant and extremely original book that invites us to rethink our relationship to the artistic world we study."--Julia Reinhard Lupton, author of Thinking with Shakespeare: Essays on Politics and Life
"Alexander Nemerov is one of the greatest readers of American visual culture. This book has the revelatory power that only wide-ranging curiosity and true independence of mind can achieve."--Richard H. Brodhead, author of Cultures of Letters: Scenes of Reading and Writing in 19th Century America
