Learning outcomes of the course unit:

Instructing students to read carefully, make reading a need in life, that is, to demonstrate its sense. Considering the study focus, training in reading drama. A drama is not the summation of all repartee and stage knowledge. To read them is to decipher their structure. The interpretation course teaches this specific type of reading. As well, it shows how the structure of a drama (today more often, post-drama) text in the history of theatre has changed.

Mode of study:

In the first year of the two-year course, Shakespeare is the subject of study. His position and significance reflects back to the beginning of drama culture and forward to modern drama. In the second year the students encounter modern and contemporary plays of Irish, British and American origin (Synge, Carr, Parker, McDonagh, Kane, Marber, Shepard, Albee, Kushner, Stoppard, Beckett). Special focus will be on th theatre of the absurd and on the second theatre reform movement (according to Braun).

Prerequisites and co-requisites:

Theatre History Lectures

Students come to class with a previously read text which is, based on the first observations, read again and re-interpreted, in at least key scenes. They are required to write essay and give an oral presentation at the end of the course.
