In this book, the author discusses 40 Greek plays written during the period of nationalization, modernization, and Westernization of the Greeks roughly bounded by their War of Independence in the 1820s and the restoration of the nation-state as a republic in the 1970s. The playwrights are Evanthia Kairi, Dimitrios Hatziaslanis, Kalliroi Siganou-Parren, Costis Palamas, Nikos Kazantzakis, Angelos Sikelianos, Iakovos Kambanellis, Giorgos Skourtis, Costas Mourselas, Stratis Karras, Antonis Matesis, and Loula Anagnostaki. Special attention is paid to the dramas of Kairi, Siganou-Parren, and Anagnostaki, three women who made valuable contributions in articulating and reshaping the concept of Hellenism for their audiences; the author compares their plays to better known ones written by Greek and non-Greek male dramatists who were their contemporaries and dealt with similar issues.
