Why choose this project topic?
This topic turns dramaturgy into a focused reading task by investigating how stage directions make domestic labour visible or obscure it. A clearly bounded corpus gives you passages to compare and an argument to develop beyond a general plot summary.
What does a close analysis of two Nigerian plays with substantial household settings reveal about how stage directions make domestic labour visible or obscure it?
Agree the corpus size, editions and critical framework for this study of how stage directions make domestic labour visible or obscure it with your supervisor.
Proposed project objectives
- 01Define the textual features relevant to how stage directions make domestic labour visible or obscure it.
- 02Build a documented evidence set from two Nigerian plays with substantial household settings.
- 03Record assigned actions, interruptions and offstage tasks; compare their distribution with characters' spoken power.
A suggested research approach
Obtain lawful access to two Nigerian plays with substantial household settings. Record assigned actions, interruptions and offstage tasks; compare their distribution with characters' spoken power. Establish selection criteria before detailed reading, record edition and page references, and test the developing interpretation against passages that complicate it.
What you will need
- Lawful access to two Nigerian plays with substantial household settings
- A reading matrix for how stage directions make domestic labour visible or obscure it
- Relevant scholarly criticism and a consistent citation system
