	Zeami Introduction
		Zeami, not very long ago a name with which only Japanese theatre specialists were familiar, has in the past few decades become increasingly well known as one of the great figures in the history of world theatre.
		Zen Buddhism is one of the more overt forces at work in Zeami's plays and, while Ôtomo Taishi's "Zeami and Zen" is not precisely about the use of Zen in the plays, it is nevertheless important in its clarification of the historical background that led Zeami to employ Zen concepts in his writing.
		In "Zeami Motokiyo and Etienne Decroux: Twin Reformers of the Art of Mime," Kathryn Wylie-Marques details the striking parallels between the artistic goals of the medieval Japanese nô master and the revolutionary modern French mime, himself quite possibly influenced by nô.

		Quinn begins by tracing Zeami';s transformation of the largely mimetic stage art of his father';s troupe into a theater of poiesis in which the playwright and actors aim for performances wherein dance and chant are re-keyed to the evocative power of literary memory.
		Zeami developed this dramatic prototype in his one treatise on composing, Sandô, (The three techniques) and in his play Takasago, both of which are discussed at length here, with annotated translations appended.
		Eminently readable and accessible, Developing Zeami is a thorough treatment of the evolution of Zeami';s thought in the broad context of his work as a performer and playwright.

	Noh Theater
		There are plays believed by scholars to be by Kanami (1333-1385), but they seem to have been heavily revised by his son Zeami (1363-1443), and no surviving play can be securely dated to before their era.
		Zeami is the prime figure in Noh, having written a vast quantity of plays for his troupe to perform, many of which are still regularly performed to this day.
		Noh exists today in a form almost unchanged since Zeami's day, and while the repertoire may have shrunk from the over one thousand plays in the Muromachi period, there have been several plays written over the years, at least one of which, "Kusu no Tsuyu", written in the late nineteenth century, is often performed.

		Upon the death of Yoshimitsu in 1408, Zeami and his school of Nō suffered a temporary lapse in freedom due to the jealousy of those in the shogunate who resented the privileges the late shogun gave to Zeami.
		Zeami drew upon many resources for his plays, including "country" (rural) literature, Buddhist sutras and hymns, military heroes, local legends, and so forth.
