Taking as its starting-point the 'death of tragedy' debate, and
focusing on the supposed disappearance from the stage of the
individual tragic hero, the book views selected plays and writings
on the theatre by Miller, Williams, Maxwell Anderson and O'Neill as
exemplifying four versions of heroism: idealism, martyrdom,
self-reflection and survival. Julie Adam shows that these diverse
playwrights share a desire to redefine tragic heroism in
individualistic liberal terms.
