Is there a distinctively American vision of tragedy revealed in the works of
its greatest playwrights? If so, how does that evolve and vary from one
playwright to the next across the 20th century and through to the present?
This volume responds to a renewed focus on tragedy in theatre and literary
studies to explore conceptions of tragedy in the dramatic work of 17 major
American playwrights. For students of American literature and theatre
studies, the assembled essays offer a clear framework for exploring the work
of many of the most studied and performed dramatists of the modern era.
Following a contextual introduction that offers a survey of conceptions of
tragedy, scholars examine the dramatic work of major playwrights in
chronological succession, beginning with Eugene O Neill and ending with
Suzan-Lori Parks. A final chapter provides a study of American theatre since
1990 and its ongoing engagement with concepts of tragedy.
In considering whether there is something about America that shapes the
tragedies written by its dramatists, each contributor explores what the plays
reveal about their author s vision of the nature and sources of human
suffering, the ways the self is assaulted, and the ways characters respond.
Among the playwrights whose work is examined are Susan Glaspetl, Langston
Hughes, Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Edward Albee, Lorraine Hansberry,
Amiri Baraka, August Wilson, Marsha Norman, and Tony Kushner. With each
chapter being short enough to be assigned for weekly classes in survey
courses, the volume will help to facilitate critical engagement with the
dramatic work and offer readers the tools to further their independent study
of this enduring theme of dramatic literature.
