This course is going to be on modern drama. Each student is going to read seven plays and read critical articles on each play ( I may provide some articles for the class). Each student is responsible to look for good articles or books on those plays. The classes will be based on the students' readings and discussions (40% of the total grade), and we will have one final exam (60%). I hope this would be very informative and interesting.

Week One (starts on 6, March, 2010) & Two: Introduction and A Doll's House, by Henrik Ibsen.

Week Three & four: Major Barbara, by George Bernard Shaw.

Week Five & Six: A Dream Play, by August Stridnbirg
