Denmark and the Modern Drama
View through CrossRef
THE POSITION OF THE MODERN DRAMA IN DENMARK today suggests a conviction that the drama is a part of the national cultural life which deserves not only encouragement but also subvention by central or municipal government. Although the principle that the Danish stage has an obligation specifically to Danish drama may be implicit in this conviction, there is no chauvinistic desire to emphasize Danish plays at the expense of more renowned works by foreign authors. The Danish drama enjoys considerable largesse on several levels from the body politic, but most plays presented in Denmark are of foreign origin.
