The Drama of Ideas: Platonic Provocations in Theater and Philosophy
Puchner, Martin (Garbedian Chair in English and Comparative Literature and Co-Chair of Theater Program, Garbedian Chair in English and Comparative Literature and Co-Chair of Theater Program, Columbia University)
Most philosophy has rejected the theater, denouncing it as a place of illusion or moral decay; the theater in turn has rejected philosophy, insisting that drama deals in actions, not ideas. Challenging both views, The Drama of Ideas shows that theater and philosophy have been crucially intertwined from the start.
