SUMMARY
"Karagiozis--a form of comic folk drama employing stock puppet figures--was immensely popular in Greece until recent years, when newer forms of entertainment have virtually eclipsed it. Kostas and Linda Myrsiades present here a tripartite view of Karagiozis; a translation of a typical text taken directly from a live performance; interviews with one of the last master Karagiozis puppeteers; and an analysis of the place of this indigenous genre in Greek culture and life."Myrsiades, Kostas is the author of 'Karagiozis Culture & Comedy in Greek Puppet Theater' with ISBN 9780813117959 and ISBN 081311795X.
