ENGL 120 - (LT) British Drama from 1660 to 1789Semester Hours: 3
Periodically
This course examines the many shifts and transformations in British drama from the Restoration through the 18th century. Dramatists of the period drew upon innovations in theatrical architecture, set design, scenery, lighting, music, and sound to transform their plays into spectacular, sometimes outrageous, events that explored topics such as politics, urban life, religious conflict, gender relations, and class warfare. Readings may include plays by William Wycherley, George Ethredge, Aphra Behn, William Congreve, John Gay, Oliver Goldsmith, and Richard Sheridan.
