Drama in a Dramatised Society
by Raymond Williams
This is an inaugural lecture Raymond Williams gave in 1974, when he assumed a professorship in drama at Cambridge University. He’s saying that drama is central to the form of civilization that has evolved, by which he means that there’s so much drama in everything, from advertising to television serials, to the contents of newspapers and magazines. The sheer quantity of a certain kind of media experience creates a different way of life.
