Modern Drama

This course involves the study of dramatic works written between 1949 and 1993, focusing particularly on innovations in form and content that date back to Ibsen’s work in the late nineteenth century. Students will discuss avant-garde trends of the twentieth century but will largely focus on the shadow cast by nineteenth-century realism onto British, Irish, and American drama as well as the postwar emergence of absurdism.
