...words applied to the egghead-baiting and benign neglect of the '50s, but they were also prophetic for the drug culture of the '60s and the trivialized mysticism of the '70s. The Feminization of American Culture attempts to tap an underground current. It is that meandering flow of frustrations, veiled hostilities and confusions about power and innocence so common to the powerless...
...Rumanian-born Serban, who has become the latest fad hero of the self-styled experimentalists, the text is simply a mask that must be ripped off to reveal the unconscious, irrational blood flow of the play. The dramatist is presumed unable to capture the Id of his work in words, so the director imposes a distracting new subtext that blurs, blots out or mangles the real text. In The Cherry Orchard, earlier this season, Serban altered the living space of Chekhov's drama to a kind of surrealistic all-white silo in which Mme. Ranevskaya ricocheted around without...

The ordinance actually had little effect on housing sales, but a real estate agent challenged it, and the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously struck it down last week. The First Amendment prohibits restrictions on "the free flow of truthful commercial information," wrote Thurgood Marshall, the court's only black Justice. While the ordinance was aimed at "the vital goal" of "promoting stable, racially integrated housing," the court ruled, the censoring of such basic information would enable "every locality in the country [to] suppress any facts that reflect...
