Abstract
This study aims at showing Eugene O'Neill's attempt to find a medium which satisfies his needs as a dramatist. At the beginning of his career, he began as a writer of realistic plays. But his attempts to find answers to all the big questions in life made him believe that he should try to put in his plays exaltation and an urge towards life which is derived from dream- like realms. Therefore, and without him knowing that, he produced anew dramatic trend that might be read in the context of magic realism.
