Brecht/Epic Theatre & Mother Courage
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page research paper/essay that analyzes Bertolt Brecht's play "Mother Courage and Her Children." This play addresses the senselessness of war and human depravity that results from totalitarianism; however, Brecht does this by using his own unique perspective and sense of theatre, rather than following the Aristotelian paradigm for tragedy, which had traditionally ruled theatrical productions. Rather than following the traditional theatrical paradigm in regards to tragedy, which engages the audience on an emotional level, Brecht endeavored to keep his audience outside of the action as observers, but to cause them to think about what was happening, its ramifications and social significance, which Brecht referred to as "epic" theatre. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Brian Friel’s “Translations” -- A Drama of Cultural Ambivalence
[ send me this paper ]
This 12 page report discusses Irish playwright Brian Friel’s work
“Translations.” In it, he tells the story of the British to
dominate all of Irish culture and heritage by translating and
changing ancient Gaelic names of villages and towns into English.
Many drama critics, social commentators, and literary historians
have described it a “metaphor” or a parable of the struggles in
Northern Ireland regarding the British, cultural assimilation,
and the determination to maintain a separate and unique identity.
Friel demonstrates that the translation of language was no simple
exercise in words and the use of one language over another, it
was the beginning of an institutionalized encouragement of
cultural ambivalence that had become one of the means by which
the English were determined to eradicate uniquely Irish thinking.
Bibliography lists 4 sources.
