The Social Significance of the Modern Drama by Emma Goldman
"The Social Significance of the Modern Drama" by Emma Goldman is a treatise published in 1914. Drawing on her extensive work with Modernist dramatists, Goldman analyzes the political and radical implications of major playwrights from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The book examines works by Henrik Ibsen, August Strindberg, George Bernard Shaw, Anton Chekhov, and many others, revealing how modern drama could awaken radical consciousness.

introduce both radicals and ordinary citizens to theater's transformative potential. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
