Description
  • The paper analyses two dramatic texts by contemporary Canadian authors, Gwendolyn MacEwen’s “iridescent play” Terror and Erebus, and Geoff Kavanagh’s Ditch, both of which question by aesthetic means the Victorian myth of heroic imperialist expansion, and alternately, propound “a view of North as bitter challenge and North as the interior of the mind that responds to that challenge.” Through a set of ironic reversals of expectation, both plays undercut the traditions of epic exploration, as well as of dramatic climax, and by applying techniques of the theatre of the absurd result in texts of highly contemporary resonance and dramatic power.
