American Woman Playwright A View of Criticism and Characterization

This study focuses on the plays of selected American women dramatists from 1930 to 1970 and traces the evolution of this special group of writers from traditional drama to experimental work. A review of critical attitudes reveals the degree of acceptability by critics of women playwrights and the relation of women playwrights to that acceptance. How these writers view themselves in terms of female universal types is also examined.Olauson, Judith is the author of 'American Woman Playwright A View of Criticism and Characterization' with ISBN 9780878751983 and ISBN 087875198X.
