During his diplomatic residency in Japan, from 1921 to 1927, Paul Claudel encountered the Nô, a form of traditional theatre. It corresponded to what he had been envisaging: a new form for synthesising the arts. This book casts light on the originality with which he interpreted and adapted the Nô in his own work.
