De två kulturernas dialektik : Edward Albee, C. P. Snow och den dramatiserade epistemologin

Tranvik, Andreas January 2019 (has links)
Since its publication and first performance, Edward Albee’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, has often been interpreted with regard to the theme of truth and illusion. A less studied, but nonetheless important, aspect of the drama concerns its relation to C. P. Snow’s concept of the two cultures. In this essay, I argue for the convergence of these two discussions, resulting in an epistemological understanding of Albee. From this mode of interpretation, not only is a rejection of the two cultures noticed, but also a dramatic movement towards a third culture. Thus, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is treated as an epistemological drama of ideas.
