讲座简介
This lecture is devoted to a very influential development in drama, which expresses vital American experiences in culture. After tracing key aspects of the growth of the genre, the topics will be: The growth of American drama; Eugene O’Neill, The Iceman Cometh; Arthur Miller, Death of a Salesman; Tennessee Williams, A Streetcar Named Desire; Edward Albee, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf; Dramatizing the “American Dream”. This genre has produced some of the world’s most important playwrights, who have won Nobel Prizes and Pulitzer Prizes. Maybe as a certain parallel with China, drama in the modern sense hardly existed in America before the 20th century, quite unlike the genre of the novel. These major works acutely and precisely diagnose the conditions under which American Dreams get transformed into something rather different, leading to distortion and deception. Our task will be to analyze this process.

讲座简介
What does it mean to think of the time—or times—of Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse (1925) as modern? “Let us not take it for granted that life exists more fully in what is commonly thought big than in what is commonly thought small,” Woolf famously wrote in her own “Modern Fiction” (1919). In the spirit of that injunction, this lecture will attempt to answer the question at different scales of magnitude, from the large sweep of Western literary history to the seemingly minor timing of a recipe for a dinner party. Along the way, we will also attend to the ten years of the novel’s represented time and how Woolf arranges their passage in order to write an elegy for her parents that doubles as an elegy for the Victorian world that she, like her artist-heroine, has left behind.
