The book “The Theater and Its Double” is presented in a new translation that adequately conveys the poetic language and intellectual depth of the original. The remaining works are published in Russian for the first time. Artaud's texts are provided with detailed commentaries. The Appendix includes works on Artaud by the English art critic Martin Eslin and the Georgian philosopher Merab Mamardashvili.
