In a rapidly changing world, the ways in which economic forces
affect both personal and global change can be difficult to track,
particularly in the arts. This collection of twenty new essays
explores both obscure and famous plays dealing with economic
issues. Beginning with the Industrial Revolution, the text moves
from Marx's theories to Wall Street speculation, nineteenth century
immigration issues, the excesses of the Gilded Age and the 1920s,
the Great Depression, World War II and millennial economic
challenges.
