Dead Poets Society offers a critical opportunity to investigate linkages between political expression and dramatic form. The film text combines comic and tragic structures in unusual ways, reflecting a contemporary political orientation toward institutions and social conformity. The analysis suggests that comedic “vertigo” is central to Dead Poets Society and other texts, and that this mechanism is a form of political expression and therapy for some contemporary American audiences.
