Summary:
"Artful resonance" is a dramatization of six poems that share the same subject. This helps clarify the difference between subject and theme. In "Image of reality," dramatizations of selected scenes from Oedipus Rex, Hamlet and The Glass menagerie, and an interview with Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright August Wilson introduce the origins, structure and purposes of drama.
