Description and Table of Contents

Description

This work explores the phenomenon of dramatic closure within both an Aristotelian paradigm and contemporary reader-response theory. Examples of plays from Oedipus to the present appear throughout, and individual chapters discuss King Lear, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, The Ride Down Mount Morgan, and A Streetcar Named Desire.
