May All Your Fences Have Gates: Essyas on the Drama of August Wilson

Index to the Plays

INDEX TO THE PLAYS This selective index-intended to assist the reader who uses this book to research specific plays or critical perspectives-identifies only the places where specific plays are discussed, not merely mentioned, and those critics and theorists used to advance an essay's argument. The index, moreover, refers to the texts of the essays, omitting references that appear only in footnotes or bibliographies and omitting the long annotated bibliography that concludes this collection.
