Description

Feminist Theories for Dramatic Criticism provides a comprehensive framework for analyzing works from a feminist perspective. This book applies key feminist theories from various disciplines to in-depth analyses of six plays by notable playwrights, including Eugene O'Neill and Lillian Hellman. The introduction sets out the multiple political perspectives within feminism, while the chapters explore the contributions of black and lesbian feminists and the evolutionary stages of feminist criticism. The book's approach is useful for theater scholars and practitioners looking to engage with feminist theory, as well as those in women's studies and other fields seeking to incorporate plays into their analysis. By combining theories from different disciplines, this book offers a nuanced understanding of feminist dramatic criticism, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in exploring the insights of feminist theory.
