This revised Student Edition includes an introduction by Daniel
Ciba, which looks in particular at the play as a piece of realism
or experimentalism and considers the play through the lens of Queer
Identity. The introduction includes discussion of very recent
revivals and adaptations of the play across the world. The Glass
Menagerie, Tennessee Williams' first great popular success and an
autobiographical play about his mother and sister, launched the
brilliant and controversial career of this ground-breaking American
playwright. Set in St Louis during the depression era of the 1930s,
it is the poignant drama of a family's gradual disintegration,
under pressure both from outside and within. METHUEN DRAMA STUDENT
EDITIONS are expertly annotated texts of a wide range of plays from
the modern and classic repertoires. A well as the complete text of
the play itself, this volume contains: · A chronology of the play
and the playwright’s life and work · an introductory discussion
of the social, political, cultural and economic context in which
the play was originally conceived and created · a succinct
overview of the creation processes followed and subsequent
performance history of the piece · an analysis of, and commentary
on, some of the major themes and specific issues addressed by the
text · a bibliography of suggested primary and secondary materials
for further study.
