  • Araceli González Crespán

    My research centrally focuses on female playwrights in contemporary American theater. I have continued interrogating female representations as depicted by female playwrights and have extended my theoretical tenets from semiotics to other approaches that include notions of ethnicity, multiculturalism and difference.
