CPLT 3430 - Contemporary Drama

Effective Start Date: 01/01/2010
This is the second half of a two-semester course on modern and contemporary American and European drama (with forays into other regions), covering post-Absurdism to the present. We will examine postwar quests for dramatic and theatrical structures relevant to a socially and morally chaotic world. From a study of reactions to the Theatre of the Absurd, we move to an investigation of contemporary drama.

Credits: 3
