- Course objectives
- A one-term course of the history of foreign drama specialized to the Austrian post-war drama, particularly between the 60s to the 90s of the 20th century, with overlaps to the post-war period and to the turn of the 20th and the 21st century. This is an important culture-politic phenomenon in the period when drama with its new forms represented not only artistic but also social protest against present society and the war background with insufficient reflection.
- Syllabus
- 1)Situation in the post-war Austria, tendency to restore traditional values, reflection in literature. 2)Viennese group and their experiments. 3)Personality and work of Elfriede Jelinek, Peter Handky, Thomas Bernhard. 4)Language experiments of Ernst Jandl. 5)New form of “Volkstück” in plays of Peter Turrini, Wolfgang Bauer and Felix Mitterer.
