Homage To Catalan Theater: Introduction, Sharon G. Feldman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

The Catalan stage is presently experiencing one of the most exciting, dynamic, and extraordinary periods in its modern history. Following decades of contentiousness, there is finally a harmonious rapport between the visually oriented theater of images and the textually oriented theater of the word, between the theater of collective creation and that in which the role of the author is essential. On the whole, the theater of contemporary Catalonia is characterized, not by the provincialism often ascribed to regional minority cultures, but rather by its cosmopolitan, international, and even transnational proclivities. Barcelona, the cultural and political hub of this region, …

Brecht's Influence On The Modern British Theater With A Special Focus On Edward Bond's The War Plays, Amal Abdelrazek

English Theses & Dissertations

This thesis traces the development and impact of Brecht's dramatic art on the modem British theatre.

It articulates the relationship between Brecht and the British theatre since it began in 1933 when Brecht's play Anna Anna (later called The Seven Deadly Sins) was performed at the Savoy Theatre. This chapter also demonstrates the kinds of changes Brecht introduced into British dramatic art, using key British playwrights as examples--John Arden, Howard Brenton, and Caryl Churchill.
