FRN 369 - Francophone Theatre

Description
Francophone plays often take a head-on look at issues that originate from the socio-political contexts in which they are produced, directly and openly calling into question established structural and/or ideological systems. This course will explore the various strategies of resistance, whether aesthetic or philosophical, used by francophone dramatists from diverse backgrounds. Authors and playwrights such as Antonin Artaud, Samuel Beckett, Aimé Césaire, Jean Genet, Eugène Ionesco, and Simone Schwarz-Bart, will constitute the backdrop of our investigation. This course is taught in French. Same as AFS369.
