dc.description.abstract | Analysis of the themes in modern American drama, including traditional and modern work ethic. Greenfield challenges the notion that twentieth-century American dramatic literature is lacking in intellectual and artistic quality. He also analyzes the social drama and social realism within these plays to make wider claims about the complexity of American society. | eng |
