Drama Explored

Drama Defined

In this case, 'Drama' refers to written texts intended for dramatic performance. This part of the A Level English Literature course may be split into study of works produced pre-1770 and post-1770.

Why Study Drama?

Drama is one of the three areas studied in English Literature A Level. This is because dramatic texts represent some of the most significant pieces of written works in history. The structure and writing style is so distinct from prose or poetry, and a broad appreciation of English Literature requires study of Drama.

What Will I Study in Drama?

You will, of course, study Shakespeare! You'll critically analyse works such as Henry IV Part 1, Twelfth Night, Othello and King Lear. You may also read and evaluate works such as Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus, John Webster's The White Devil, and Richard Brinsley Sheridan's School for Scandal.

Further Study After Drama

In A Level English Literature you'll also spend time studying Prose and Poetry in order to give you a rounded view of written English works. If you continue to study English Literature, Drama, Theatre Studies, Classics or Linguistics at Degree level, the knowledge and skills you've gained here will be of great benefit to your studies.

Recent Reviews of Drama Essays

What our users think of the Drama essays in this section:

"Excellent analysis - found this very useful in drawing together all the play's themes"
carolineellison
"This is not in depth. Meg's character is double sided, however so are all the other characters in pinteresque the play. There is no relevant references to the stylistic devices used by the playwright. That is to say, this essay doesn't approach the dialog analysis from the '' point of view."
pinteresque
"strong quotes analysis with detailed character analysations. well written"
chiny94
"Good general observations that were useful but dotted with too many opinions and general comments without evidence. Needed more tying together."
Lekky09
"An ok start, but it may not be up to A-Level standard. A good, clear introduction which is straight to the point. Quotes from the play have been used, and partially analysed, which demonstrates that you have some understanding of the text. There are numerous spelling errors, so you need to re-read your work. You are missing a conclusion, which it vital for any piece of work. TSR User: boosh_slayer"
