One of the founding members of the Provincetown Players, Susan

the work she did for this significant theatre group. Interwoven in
her many plays, novels and short stories is astute commentary on the
human condition with prominent attention to such issues as gender,
politics, power and artistic daring.
Through an exploration of eight plays written between the years
of
1916

1943—
Trifles, Springs Eternal, The People, Alisons House,
Bernice.,
The Outside, Chains of Dew and The Verge
—
this critical
study concentrates on one of Glaspell s central themes: individuality
versus social existence. It explores the range of forces and
fundamental tensions that influence the perception and
communication of her characters. The final chapter includes a brief
commentary on other Glaspell works.
