This bilingual volume brings together contributions from the field of drama and performance studies viewed from the perspective of gender as distinct discipline. The ten texts collected in the edition discuss diverse issues in Romanian and international theatre (German or Italian), famous figures in the field (Phia Ménard), different characters in texts, bringing into play feminist perspectives and touching upon the masculine and the feminine. The love for women is prophesized within the larger framework of territories to recover, grounds to be gained reminding one of the uncharted and unexplored land symbolised by Moby Dick in American fiction.
