From: Jackson, Tony <[email protected]> hi everyone, i have a question which i hope isn't too goofy. we all know that it's a regular practice (set in motion ultimately by aristotle) to teach plays as a kind of literature, something of readerly value apart from any actual production. are screenplays ever taught as literature? i have it in my mind that they aren't. if they aren't taught as lit, why not? tony j Tony E.
