초록

This paper aims at exploring the philosophy of cosmopolitanism in the five representative plays of Lynn Nottage, Intimate Apparel, Las Meninas, Fabulation, Ruined, and Sweat. The discussion on the philosophy of cosmopolitanism in these plays reveals “we” consciousness which includes diversity, flexibility, and generosity beyond region, national boundary, race, class and leads expansion of theatrical territory intersected with macrocosm and microcosm. In Ruined which exposes cosmopolitan ethics and world citizenship Nottage suggests the direction of community and practice of the original announcement of “I am the world citizen.” In Fabulation and Sweat, Nottage shows the justified attribute of ‘Gemeinschaft’ of cosmopolitan society. Finally, Intimate Apparel and Las Meninas indicate the recovery of the subjection of subaltern and Weltburgerrecht. This is an attempt to persue the reconciliation of humanity indicating the crisis of “we” consciousness and practice Kant’s idea of cosmopolitan global community which includes recognition, respect, open-mindedness, beneficence to the ‘others’ sharing humanitarian perspectives as a world citizen. The aesthetics of cosmopolitanism which applied in specific dramatic methodology in each play along with the common issues including ‘otherness’, ‘humanity’, ‘reconciliation’, and practicability of the cosmopolitan ideals anticipates Nottage’s infinite potential power as a playwright. Thus, Nottage’s theatrical works which have gotten attention from theatrical territory as well as politics for these reasons suggest the alternatives and direction of 21st American Theatre.
