In this study, Dubost (U. of Caen, France)

examines Eugene O'Neill's plays in order to explore his ideas regarding the existential problems confronting humans. He begins with O'Neill's representations of the family and goes on to look at his depictions of characters wrestling with social conventions and finding their place in relation to the larger world around them. This paperback reprint of a library bound edition first published in 1997 is a modified translation of the author's doctoral dissertation.
