    RAGGED INDIVIDUALISM

    his book oers a study of the portrayal of America in selected plays of the thirties and a scrutiny of the intellectual response of the playwrights to the American way of life in the light of socio-political and economic issues in that decade. The introduction of this study provides an examination of the distinction between the individualistic and collectivist features of American ideology and its manifestation in the Depression years. With this distinction in mind, the book moves on to study the political beliefs of some of the dramatists against the backdrop of the debates of the 1930s. Having established the political contexts of the plays in consideration, the book then examines the relationship between the thematic and dramatic structures in an integrated and close-focused study of some of the plays.
