Description: Between 1890 and 1918, over 125 American English Irish and Anglo Indian plays by 70 dramatists were published in 14 American general interest periodicals aimed at the middle - class reader and consumer. Ranging from elite publications such as The Atlantic Monthly and Scribner's to more mid - level venues such as Mc Clure's and Everybody's Magazine to progressive magazines such as Arena and Forum the plays dramatized a wide range of American concerns including anxieties about "race suicide " immigration "white slavery " the New Woman class distinctions global warfare and the creation of a unique national identity. These plays show Americans to have been "dis/contented" citizens conflicted by the demands of a dynamically changing nation.
