DOWNLOAD EBOOKWomen Warriors in Romantic Drama advances scholarship on late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century theater by bringing together, for the first time, female and male dramatists as well as British, German, Irish, and French writers, thinkers, actors, and philosophers. This transnational perspective allows Women Warriors in Romantic Drama to make the provocative claim that in some instances, the violence of the French Revolution--and especially women's participation in it--advances proto-feminist concerns.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFemale roles are analyzed in terms of their function within the dramatic structure of each play and in relation to a changing social and cultural backcloth. Since the fourteen (male) authors are considered chronologically, the work affords both an introduction to the method of each dramatist and also a commentary on the development of literary and political approaches, from the foundation of the GDR until the mid-seventies. Female characters move into more diverse roles as they are increasingly defined by their own employment, political commitment and sexuality. The symbolic use of female characters as lovers, mothers and moral pedagogues, which derives from older traditions, is sustained, but with significant changes in the social expression of these roles.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSchnitzler's Reigen, Wedekind's Die Büchse der Pandora: Eine Monstretragoedie, and Thoma's Moral and Magdalena reflect the gender inequity and interaction of their time as described in contemporary non-literary texts. The works represent a creative participation in gender discourse, taking the side of social reformers who argued for a more equitable treatment of women, including prostitutes. The discrimination endured by prostitutes, however, is simply an extreme of what all women experienced. The dramas expose male oppression of females, while simultaneously portraying what women can do in order to achieve limited independence and self-determination. Women are victims rather than victimizers, and male hypocritical attitudes cause women's suffering.
