Think about the experiences you've had with dramatic texts, including seeing live performances or film adaptations. How does the era in which a play was written affect your ability to enjoy it or understand it? How is it different to read or see a play written more than two millennia ago (such as tragedies and comedies from ancient Greece) compared to a few centuries ago (for example, Shakespeare or others from the Renaissance) or one produced in the last 100 years?

Is there something like a modern sensibility to more recently written dramatic works that helps you connect better to them than to works from past centuries? Are there traits in older forms of drama that engage you because they are NOT modern? Describe the traits of drama that keep you engaged as well as characteristics that make it challenging to do so.

Answer:

1.  The era in which a play was written affects the ability of reader’s/spectator’s ability to enjoy it or understand it due to the lack of context, such as social norms (which change with every era), historical events which were the influence or inspiration for the dramatic word.

2. The difference in reading or seeing a play written more than two millennia ago such as tragedies and comedies from ancient Greece compared to a few centuries ago such as Shakespearean ones or one produced in the last 100 years is in the form of drama. Greek and Shakespearean drama are continuation of the same tradition but they have different forms and context. What makes these old dramas popular in modern time is their everlasting themes.

3. There certainly is. Modern sensibility helps you to connect better to the more recently written dramatic works that than to works from past centuries, as the context is much closer and therefore even more personal and understandable. But, that sometimes isn’t the matter, for example with Avant-Garde dramas.

4.  Speaking from myself, yes, there are certain traits in older forms of drama that engage me more in older dramas because they don’t have a modern form or sometimes theme. When you engage in an artistic work it is according to your own sensibility.

5. The traits of drama that keep modern people engaged are mostly the context which influences the capability to understand it better and therefore to engage in it. The characteristics that make it challenging to do so are mostly the forms and language which is confusing and most likely failed to deliver what author actually wanted to achieve, like in Avant-Garde and Postmodernism dramas.

Many students graduate from college with
a mountain of student loan debt that must be
paid back. Student loans can range from small
amounts to thousands upon thousands of
dollars. A large amount of debt can be a huge
burden for a young person especially when she
is early in her career and likely not earning too
much money. Our organization is proposing
that a college education should be free for all
young people so that their lives are not
negatively impacted by student loan debt. A free
education is already provided for so many years
(K-12), and we believe that the last 4 years also
be provided
