Edward Gordon Craig: References & Edit History

Additional Reading

Edward Craig (Edward Carrick), Gordon Craig: The Story of His Life (1968, reprinted 1985), is the definitive work. An earlier study, based largely on the Craig collection in the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris, is Denis Bablet, Edward Gordon Craig (1966, reissued as The Theatre of Edward Gordon Craig, 1981). Important because of the chronology by Craig himself is the brief work by Janet Leeper, Edward Gordon Craig: Designs for the Theatre (1948). Christopher Innes, Edward Gordon Craig (1983), examines his theories, plans, and productions. Ifan Kyrle Fletcher and Arnold Rood, Edward Gordon Craig: A Bibliography (1967), records Craig’s written and graphic work.
