“New Readings in British Drama: From the Post-War Period to the Contemporary
Era” oers new readings of British plays produced after the Second World
War by underlining the fact that literary theories have never been stagnant and
exhausted in the eld of drama as part of literary studies. Scholarly editions
focusing exclusively on contemporary drama and its critical readings are still
a rarity, as contemporary literary scholars tend to neglect drama in favour of
ction. erefore, our contributors have attempted to examine the works of
Tom Stoppard, Caryl Churchill, Sarah Kane, Roy Williams, Mark Ravenhill,
omas Eccleshare, Anders Lutsgarten and Jackie Kay from the perspectives
of the major theories by emphasising how key theoretical approaches can
help elucidate theatrical texts and their performances from a contemporary
critical standpoint.
