Book excerpt: Six Short Plays Of Eugene O'Neill "I love life. But I don't love life because it is pretty. Prettiness is only clothes-deep. I am a truer lover than that. I love it naked. There is beauty to me even in its ugliness. In fact, I deny the ugliness entirely, for its vices are often nobler than its virtues, and nearly always closer to a revelation ....To me, the tragic alone has that significant beauty which is truth. It is the meaning of life -- and the hope. The noblest is eternally the most tragic. The people who succeed and do not push on to a greater failure are the spiritual middle-classers. Their stopping at success is the proof of their compromising insignificance. How petty their dreams must have been!"-- Eugene O'Neill, from the biography by Barbara and Arthur Gelb

Download or read book Eugene O Neill s One Act Plays written by M. Bennett and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-08-06 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eugene O'Neill, Nobel Laureate in Literature and Pulitzer Prize winner, is widely known for his full length plays. However, his one-act plays are the foundation of his work - both thematically and stylistically, they telescope his later plays. This collection aims to fill the gap by examining these texts, during what can be considered O'Neill's formative writing years, and the foundational period of American drama. A wide-ranging investigation into O'Neill's one-acts, the contributors shed light on a less-explored part of his career and assist scholars in understanding O'Neill's entire oeuvre.

Book excerpt: 'Diff'Rent' is a two-act play about married life written by Eugene O'Neill. The story unfolds in the parlor of the Crosby home, located on a side street of a seaport village in New England. It was mid-afternoon of a day in late spring in the year 1890. Bright sunlight streams through the windows on the left. Through the window and the screen door in the rear the fresh green of the lawn and of the elm trees that line the street can be seen. Stiff, white curtains are at all the windows. Emma Crosby and Caleb Williams are sitting at the parlor. Emma is a slender girl of twenty, rather under the medium height. Her face, in spite of its plain features, gives an impression of prettiness, due to her large, soft blue eyes which have an incongruous quality of absent-minded romantic dreaminess about them. Her mouth and chin are heavy, full of a self-willed stubbornness. Although her body is slight and thin, there is a quick, nervous vitality about all her movements that reveals an underlying constitution of reserve power and health. She has light brown hair, thick and heavy.

Michael has a romantic notion of what the perfect marriage ought to be like, and he has little tolerance for any instance in which his marriage falls short of this ideal love. Eleonore, understandably, finds it difficult to live up to such unrealistic expectations of blissful devotion. This creates tension in their relationship. Will they reconcile their differences?
