- W2015387633 abstract "After Darwin, Timberlake Wertenbaker's play about the effect of Charles Darwin's theories of evolution on late-twentieth-century social assumptions and moral imperatives, opened 8 July 1998 at the Hampstead Theatre in London. Manuscript evidence shows, however, that Wertenbaker had been chewing on ideas about how cultural hybridity, gender roles, and recent political upheavals interact with Darwin's theories for more than a decade. In the late 1980s she wrote a play also titled After Darwin, which is unpublished, unproduced, and previously undiscussed in criticism. Read together, the two plays are revelatory because though they are concerned with the same issues and conflicts, they are wildly different. An exploration of the relationship between the two plays — what differs and what survives in the evolution of Wertenbaker's texts — pinpoints the overall shift in Wertenbaker's work from an emphasis on gender to a focus on culture. Like the typescript, earlier plays in her oeuvre, notably New Anatomies (1981), Case to Answer (1980), and The Grace of Mary Traverse (1985) are propelled by gender analysis. Later plays like Our Country's Good (1988) and her most recent plays, After Darwin and Credible Witness (2001), probe colonialism and the interaction of cultures. This article compares Wertenbaker's 1998 After Darwin with the earlier typescript titled After Darwin, and the comparison yields useful insight into Wertenbaker's changing worldview, as well as her development of structure, character, and theme." @default.
