商品簡介
The prolific literary critic Bloom (humanities, Yale U.) provides the introduction to this collection of close readings. Some of the contributing scholars of English literature and American drama focus on specific playwrights and plays, among them Eugene O'Neill, Edward Albee, Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Sexual Perversity in Chicago, and Fefu and Her Friends. Others explore such topics as the discipline of Arrogance, the survival of major full-length plays, the play as lang-scape from 1920 to 1933, and states of crisis.
