En savoir plus sur le livre
Since the 1970s, many women playwrights have emerged in the Scottish theatre scene. However, their pioneering contribution to theatrical innovation and experimentation, within and without Scotland, hasn't yet received a thorough investigation and proper acknowledgement. This book attempts to explore what is still, in part, uncharted territory. By focusing on a selection of texts by Joan Ure, Liz Lochhead, Marcella Evaristi, Jackie Kay, Sue Glover, Rona Munro, Ann Marie Di Mambro, and Sharman MacDonald, it will analyze their discursive strategies to express women's experiences in relation to issues of national and individual identities. Three main trends determine the fils rouges connecting their works: the revision and rewriting of existing literary text; the adoption of the perspective of the Other, the marginalized and exile within past and present society; the re-awakening of Scotland's historical memory and re-investigation of national mythology
