Modern Drama in Europe is a book written by Storm Jameson and first published in 1920. It is a comprehensive analysis of the European theatrical scene during the early 20th century. In this book, Jameson explores the works of the most important playwrights of the time, including Henrik Ibsen, August Strindberg, George Bernard Shaw, and Luigi Pirandello. She examines the themes, styles, and techniques used by these writers to create groundbreaking plays that challenged traditional theatrical conventions. Jameson also provides a historical and cultural context for the emergence of modern drama, discussing the impact of World War I on European society and the arts. She argues that the war had a profound effect on the way playwrights approached their craft, leading to a new emphasis on psychological realism and social critique. Throughout the book, Jameson offers insightful and nuanced readings of individual plays, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses and placing them within the broader context of modern European drama. She also provides a detailed bibliography for readers who wish to explore the subject further. Overall, Modern Drama in Europe is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of modern theater. It offers a thorough and engaging analysis of the major trends and movements that shaped European drama during the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
