    3.00 Credits
    Cabrini University - Closed

    Eugene O'Neill is the founder of American dramatic literature. Prior to his plays, Americans presented melodramas and minstrel shows.

Though he dealt with contemporary issues such as technology and racism, O'Neill was a profoundly personal writer. He was a life-long Catholic who couldn't believe in God. He was an optimist who confronted mankind's darkest sercrets. He also wrote the most complete artistic discussion of dysfunctional families, one that is still studied by therapists today. This dramatic literature course will examine the great plays and the themes of each from literary and dramatic points of view and provide appropiate religious and philosophical background. 3 credits
