Abstract:

Being colonized by France, Cocochina (the South of Vietnam) was the region where Western literature was introduced into earlier than the North. Truong Minh Ky was considered the first translator of Western literature in Vietnam. His earliest works of translation appeared in 1884. By the early 20th century, introduced to Vietnamese readers were Western literary works not only of French origin but also of British, American and Russian origins; not only poetry, prose but also drama. In the late 19th century, many writers such as Truong Vinh Ky, Huynh Tinh Cua were interested in Chinese literature

In the 1950s and 1960s, American theater gradually diversified.

The experimental theater on Broadway and Broadway posed a challenge to traditional American theater. Experimental drama begins to weaken the story and script in terms of content, and instead invests a large amount of artistic creativity in formal expression. By weakening the script, it emphasizes the relationship between observation and performance, sensory perce

Horror and the Gothic have long been staple genres of radio drama, including the radio drama revival series of the late 1970s–early 1980s , CBS Radio Mystery Theater (1974–82).

“Expressionist” drama is different from traditional realistic drama. It has features like anti-conflict, anti-logical structure and shows the inner state of the characters. Therefore, in the process of expressionist drama teaching, it is necessary to highlight the characteristics of “dramatic” and “stylistic”. Here, we will take Singapore’s national treasure Kuo Pao Kun’s dramas “Kopi Diam” and “The Silly Little Girl and the Funny Old Tree” as examples to discuss the stylistic features and teaching strategy for expressionist drama to promote the effective teaching.

Like Anglo-Australian popular music, which is often indistinguishable from its English or American counterparts, Anglo-Australian drama tends to have a familiarly white, post-colonial veneer which all too frequently simply covers a neocolonial core.

The world we live in is still manifestly colonial, although it might be better to call it neocolonial, in recognition of the fact that the crude annexations of the past hav

While American regional theatre has flourished for decades, hardly any critics with a national profile pay attention to it, but theatre critic Terry Teachout has recently argued that criticism must catch up with this ‘deprovincialized’ drama, drawing upon his viewing of Brian Friel's Dancing at Lughnasa in a memorable 2009 production by the Florida Repertory Theatre in Fort Myers.

Abstract:

This study aims to identify Jewish characteristics in Arthur Miller's eight major plays, focusing on their characters, themes, and writing styles. As a Jewish American immigrant, Miller has been praised for portraying the American ego or culture. Until now, criticism of Miller's plays has taken his imperfect American self for granted as the standard of universality. Critics analyzed only the form and content revealed on the surface of the plays, which have become ambiguous due to the author's double identities. Miller presents a typical American middle-class character on the surface of his wor

Abstract:

Scholars agree that the United States is experiencing a new black civil and human rights movement called #BlackLivesMatter and that the Internet is pivotal to that movement. Protests in Ferguson, Missouri, and in Baltimore, Maryland, dominated national attention for months through 2014 and 2015. Protesters have successfully gained the attention of elite power brokers, a necessary step in the social movement process. #BlackLivesMatter has many insights to provide about mobilization, if researchers take black American discursive power and intellectual production more seriously as subjects of ana
