U G C Sponsored Two Day national Seminar On
VISION AND PERFORMANCE:
COMMONWEALTH PLAYS IN English
1st & 2nd March, 2012
Nowadays plays have a good response among the readers. Though plays are said to be the precursor of all genres in literature, interest in reading dramas has recently dwindled due to the arrival of novels. But in recent times he arrival of modern dramas by various dramatists like angry young men group and absurd dramatists kike Samuel Beckett and others have kindled the interest of the readers to read plays. Coming to Commonwealth Literature [Creative literatures from Nations which were under colony rule once] new dramatists have raised and produced many valuable tomes in which diverse themes like alienation, identity crisis, homosexuality and gender issues are discussed. Most of the modern dramas are produced with the help of themes taken from real life situations instead of fictional elements. Moreover many plays have implied themes and ideas which pave way for the readers to imagine more. This seminar will be a very good forum for the upcoming researchers and scholars to gain acquaintance with these recent and debatable topics. Researchers can present their papers on the themes like
1. Post colonialism
2. Postmodernism
3. Absurd Elements
4. Gender Issues
5. Historicism
6. Political Satires
7. Science Plays
8. Social Plays
9. Alienation& Identity Crisis
