THE 310 - The Black Experience in August Wilson’s Cycle Plays (3)

August Wilson’s Pittsburgh Cycle, also called the Century Cycle, is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest achievements in American playwriting. Chronicling the Black experience through the 20th century in the U.S., the Pittsburgh Cycle consists of ten plays: one for each decade 1900-2000. This course examines the whole of the Pittsburgh cycle, critical and literary reviews of the plays, film adaptations, and the place of August Wilson’s momentous achievement in the history of American drama.
