"This collection of 14 essays explores drama from around the world that depicts the United States and Americans. From eighteenth century German dramas about Native Americans to the theaters of contemporary Japan, Mexico, Ireland, and others, there are conflicting representations of Americans. Sometimes flattering, often critical, and occasionally insulting, these views highlight perceptions of America abroad"--Provided by publisher.
