Book excerpt: The Present Book, The Plays Of Eugene O Neill : A Critical Study, Is A Full-Length Study Of Eugene O Neill S Major Plays. O Neil, Who Was Awarded The Nobel Prize For Literature In November 1936, Has A Firm Belief That Powerlessness, Cultural-Estrangement, Social-Isolation, Self-Estrangement And Normlessness Are The Major Factors Which Account For The Realistic Representation Of The Problems Of The Individual In His Plays. O Neill S Plays Are Modern Tragedies, Striking At The Very Root Of Sickness Inherent In The Present Day World. He Claims That He Has Studied Man Not In Relation To Man, But Man In Relation To God.
