GERM 152 PO - Drama as Experiment


Beginning with the Naturalists, 20th-century dramatists delved ever further into topics previously considered off limits: class war, sexuality, and the problematic nature of human communication. The formal elements traditional to drama were also continually undermined, until the very notions of character, plot, and dramatic performance were themselves called into question. Works by Hauptmann, Schnitzler, Hofmannsthal, Wedekind, Sternheim, Kaiser, Brecht, Borchert, Frisch, Duerrenmatt, Weiss, and Handke. Lectures, discussion, oral reports.

Prerequisite(s): For admission to literature and culture courses, GERM 044  or the equivalent is normally required.
Instructor: F. von Schwerin-High
Course Credit: 1.0
