    Greek Influence on the Modern Day Theater

    Twenty-five hundred years ago, Western theatre was born in Athens, Greece. Between 600 and 200 BC, the ancient Athenians created a theatre culture whose form, technique and terminology have lasted two millennia, and they created plays that are still considered among the greatest works of world drama. (Nardo 10) Their achievement is truly remarkable when one considers that there have been only two other periods in the history of theatre that could be said to approach the greatness of ancient Athens - Elizabethan England and, perhaps the Twentieth Century. The greatest playwright of Elizabethan England was Shakespeare, but Athens produced at least five equally great playwrights. The Twentieth Century produced thousands of fine plays and films, but their form and often their content are based on the innovations of the ancient Athenians. The theatre of Ancient Greece evolved from religious rites…

    ‘’Brecht Is Interested in Emotion He Just Doesn’t Want the Audience to Be Overpowered by It.’’ Discuss This Statement Referring to Your Study and Experience of the Play Set for Study.

    Bertolt Brecht is one of the most prominent figures in 20th-century theatre. His ideas have revolutionised playwriting, production techniques and acting. Brecht identified himself as a Marxist, having an enormous impact on his plays, this being known nowadays as Epic Theatre. Brecht defined it as wherein a play should not cause the spectator to emotionally identify with the action before him or her, but should instead provoke rational self-reflection and a critical view of the actions on the stage. This is known as the “Verfremdungseffekt” or “V effekt”. Unlike dramatists who focused on the universal elements of the human situation and fate, Brecht was interested in the attitudes and behaviour people adopted toward each other in specific historical situations and strongly contradicted Stanislavsky’s teachings. He often based his plays in a different time telling a story that had parallel themes to the social ills he was hoping to illuminate in his own time. In this essay I will explore how Brecht has used these techniques throughout his play “The Caucasian Chalk Circle” to eliminate any emotion felt by the audience.…

    facts

    Brecht was both playwright and producer/director of his own and other peoples plays. He also wrote on dramatic theory. The theory describes theatre as Brecht wished it to become. This theory is only partly realised in his own work. Brecht would say that this is the result of the theatre's and society's not being ready yet for the final, perfected version of epic theatre. Modern theatre critics might say that Brecht's practical sense of what works in the theatre has happily overruled the more extreme applications of his theory.…

    Master Of Social Work

    Social work is among the most values-based and ethics-based of all professions. It is the purpose of this paper to logically and critically identify the importance of values and ethics as an integral part of social work education, especially in regards to Master of Social Work (MSW) internship programs. Although MSW internship programs include individuals from a range of demographic and cultural groups, it is critical that MSW students learn about and confront ethical dilemmas and raise issues regarding programs, policies, and procedures. In this case study, the Immigration and Refugee Ministries Association (IRMA) offered a MSW internship program to a student named Scott Campbell despite influx of leadership. Internships are to provide students…
