BALIT3003 Reading Drama
This course analyses selected plays central to the development of drama in the Western tradition, with a critical emphasis on a historical, cultural and performative analysis of these works. As such, it concentrates on the most significant and innovative forms of dramatic literature across history, ranging from Ancient Greek Drama, to Renaissance drama, and developments in dramatic practice and theory in the 20th and 21st centuries. The course elaborates a coherent narrative of the ways in which drama has developed in the Western tradition and investigates how literary and social movements influenced innovative dramatic practice.
