A History of Modern Drama, Volume II: 1960 – 2000 by David Krasner provides an in-depth exploration of the dramatic works and authors that shaped world drama from the mid-20th century through to the turn of the millennium. The book delves into detailed analyses of plays and playwrights, examining the influence of a wide range of writers, including mainstream icons such as Harold Pinter and Edward Albee, alongside more unorthodox works by Peter Weiss and Sarah Kane. It offers global coverage of both English and non-English dramas, extending to works from Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. The text considers the impact of art, music, literature, architecture, society, politics, culture, and philosophy on the formation of postmodern dramatic literature, combining wide-ranging topics with original theories, an international perspective, and a philosophical and cultural context. This volume completes a comprehensive two-part work examining modern world drama, offering readers complete coverage of a full century in the evolution of global dramatic literature alongside its predecessor.
