Respectability and Its Discontents: Reflections on Teaching in American Universities Today.
Levy, Jonathan
Theatre Topics, v11 n1 p31-42 Mar 2001
Argues that the further theatre studies moves away from its roots in the art and the business, the less valuable it is as an academic subject. Proposes that it is precisely in the historic tension between theatre departments and universities that theatre departments can best clarify their existence and goals. (PM)
