Relationship between History Plays and Historical Studies Through Comparing the Dramas and the Audience Receptions of Yi Sang Counts to Thirteen and Our Joyful Young Days

Jeon, Youngji

Abstract Details

2010, Master of Arts, Miami University, Theatre.
With this thesis I explore the relationship between history plays and historical studies. In order to look at this relationship, I chose a Korean-American play Yi Sang Counts to Thirteen and a Korean play Our Joyful Young Days, both of which deal with the 1930s Korean poet Yi Sang and his love conflict. The comparison of the two plays reveals that the narratives of the history plays echo the historical studies of each linguistic world. However, preference of the audience to a certain theatrical aesthetic causes the audience reception not to follow the boundary that the languages draw. Thus, I address how the history plays represent two different relations with the historical studies, in their production and consumption.
