This is a Comparative Literature assignment. Discuss, Analyse, Compare. 3000 words. 

Within the essay, explore Artaud’s views of theatre and the way in which these views are shared by twentieth-century playwrights as exemplified in the following plays: 

  • Garcia Lorca – The Dream of Life 
  • Arrabal – Picnic on the Battlefield 
  • Sirera – The Audition 
Formatting: 
  1. Introduction
  2. Main body (paragraphs as necessary)
  3. Conclusion 
For the main body:
  • You could either break the essay down to list Artaud’s views of theatre and with each view/paragraph discuss how these views are supported within each of the plays. 
  • OR you could break the essay down into 3 sections, one for each of the plays, and explore all of the supported views throughout each play. 
Texts and Referencing 
  1. These are the 3 primary texts. When analysing the play, include quotes from the plays to support analysis/argument.  In brackets, include the line number the quote is from: (line xx – yy). 
  2. The other 5 sources are secondary sources. I have attached necessary articles related to the plays which can be used and referenced. When referencing a secondary source, make sure to analyse the quote and/or link it back to the point being made. 
  3. For in-text referencing, write the author’s last name, year of publication and page number of quote. Example: (Knopf 2015: 167). This is for any plays, articles, texts, books that are referenced. 
  4. For the Bibliography, split into 2 sections and list the primary texts at the top, and then the secondary texts below.
