Part of the "Greenwood Introduces Literary Masterpieces" series, it overviews the historical and intellectual background of modern British and Irish drama and includes individual chapters on 10 major plays. It provides a plot summary for each work and discusses the background, themes, dramatic art, characters, and critical reception of each play. It also lists works for further reading.
Modern British and Irish dramatic works are among the plays most widely read by students. This volume conveniently introduces 10 major plays by British and Irish dramatists. Each chapter is devoted to a particular play and includes a brief biography, a plot synopsis, a discussion of major themes and characters, an overview of the play's historical background, an analysis of the work's dramatic style, an overview of the play's critical reception, and a list of works for further reading. Modern British and Irish dramatic works are widely enjoyed by general readers and high school students. But because they are rooted in literary Modernism and generally reflect particular historical and cultural concerns, they can also be difficult for students to understand. This volume concisely and conveniently introduces 10 masterpieces of British and Irish drama in an accessible manner.
