Abstract:

La présente étude porte sur la pratique du genre de la tragédie classique au XIXe siècle, en particulier sous la Restauration et la Monarchie de Juillet. Ce qui nous intéresse, ce sont les développements les plus tardifs du genre tragique en France, genre dont nous documentons l’évolution et le déclin progressif au cours de la première moitié du XIXe siècle, c’est-à-dire jusqu’à sa disparition des théâtres français, qui a lieu autour de 1850. En nous basant sur un corpus de quatre-vingt pièces, nous essayons de brosser un tableau complet de la tragédie et des auteurs tragiques de la Restaurati

La production dramatique de Jean-François-Louis-Népomucène Lemercier s’inscrit justement dans ce moment de transition entre ce que l’on a appelé Néoclassicisme et le Romantisme. Né en 1771 et mort en 1840, cet homme de lettres et académicien a assisté aux bouleversements qui ont caractérisé l’histoire de France du tournant des Lumières jusqu’à la Révolution de Juillet et même après. L’étendue de sa vie et surtout de son activité de dramaturge dépassent donc amplement ce « long dix-huitième siècle » que l’histoire littéraire tend à prolonger jusqu’en 1820.

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the significance of ritual movements in theatre and society of fifth-century Athens. The focus falls on processional movement, the definitive characteristics of which are drawn from the ancient Greek concept of pompe, i.e. a movement towards a defined destination, involving the conveyance of a ritual symbol (or an object or a person) between specific points of departure and arrival. The social contexts of divine and heroic cult, funerals and weddings prove to be the main occasions for the performance of such processional movements. In the world outside the theatre, pro

Abstract:

This thesis contributes to the understanding of the stagecraft and composition of Athenian tragedy through a re-evaluation of its component elements within the structure. I undertake a re-interpretation of the Aristotelian terms for 'plot', which allows for a more nuanced examination of events occurring within a tragedy. As Aristotle notes, the systasis of pragmata is the structure of events that forms a tragedy. The muthos is the way in which these events are presented and includes the actions and words of the dramatis personae. Pragmata are constituent elements of both the systasis and mutho

It concludes that the author knew of these and adapted parts of them. The section on authenticity summarises those features of Rh. which have been regarded by scholars as incompatible with Euripidean authorship, as well as some evidence which has previously been ignored. It concludes that a combination of unusual features in Rh. point away from the play being an early work of E. In particular, these are: a limited use of colloquialism; the absence of περi

Abstract:

This thesis looks at occurrences of "living death" – a liminal state that exists between life and death, and which may be approached from either side – in early modern English drama. Today, reference to the living dead brings to mind zombies and their ilk, creatures which entered the English language and imagination centuries after the time of the great early modern playwrights. Yet, I argue, many post-Reformation writers were imagining states between life and death in ways more complex than existing critical discussions of “ghosts” have tended to perceive.

Abstract:

This thesis establishes the extent to which theatrical treatments of the notion of women as threat, in England and France from 1553 to 1610, participated in contemporary pro-feminine discourses, and identifies the specificities of female representation in drama as a genre. In studying the diverse theatrical representations of female threat (e.g. political, sexual, ethnic, verbal), it draws on recent studies of gender, sexuality and race in Renaissance France and England. The thesis engages with a broad corpus, which includes relatively little-studied French dramatists such as Etienne Jodelle,

D.H. Lawrence's plays must not be ignored as dramas or considered experimental in a genre for which their author had certainly had a remarkable sympathy, or even footnotes to his fiction. Lawrence perhaps did not write dramas that would adhere to the taste of the age, but his efforts in struggling against the conventional rules of theatrical construction are certainly undeniable. He was keen to enforce his own theatrical visions and patterns. His plays show a dramatist willing to use the theatre for communicating his visions and providing an authentic strength to life or lives lived by highly

PART I: Literary criticism in the twentieth century has sometimes shown that Jacobean drama challenged religious orthodoxy. The aim of this thesis is to show that this challenge was bound up with other, equally subversive concerns: a critique of ideology and a struggle to demystify political and power relations. In the tragedy here described as radical, power is identified in its complex manifestations and relations, and in its equally complex ideological misrepresentations. This section concludes with a study of three plays which exemplify this radicalism: Marston's Antonio plays and Shakespe

Elaborative analysis is concentrated on the two major Tragedies of Christopher Marlowe. The model encouragingly casts new light on areas in the plays conventionally consi

In John Ford&rsquo<br>s Love&rsquo<br>s Sacrifice (1633) and Lope de Vega&rsquo<br>s Punishment Without Revenge (1631), tragedy turns out to be the inevitable consequence of the plays since the motives of jealousy, honour, revenge and love converge and lead people to commit sinful crimes.

Researchers are asking what drama teachers do in the classroom that promotes effective learning. Educational drama practitioner researchers O'Neill (1995) and Taylor (2006) suggest that theory informs practice and practice informs theory.

Drawing on Schon's (1983, 1987) theory of reflective practice, my study examines my "reflections-in-action" with five secondary 5 adolescent students between 1997 and 2004, and "reflections-on-action" with the same adult students

This thesis offers a reappraisal of Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s dramatic theory and writing. Although critical interest in Coleridge’s dramatic work is relatively small in comparison to other areas, it is increasing. A central aim of the thesis is to add to this field of criticism by suggesting a greater significance of the dramatic in Coleridge’s oeuvre. This is an area of Coleridge’s work that can be illuminated by way of its interpretation using Walter Benjamin’s reassessment of dramatic genres in The Origin of German Tragic Drama.

The plays combined characteristic Wildean witticisms with cunning social criticism of Victorian society, using stereotypical characters such as the dandy, the fallen woman and the “ideal” woman to mock the double moral and strict social expectations of Victorian society.

Abstract:

The eighteenth century is famous for producing literary satire, primarily in verse (and later prose) form. However, during this period, a new dramatic form also arose of which satire was the controlling element. And like the writers of prose and verse satires, playwrights of dramatic satire claimed that their primary aim was the correction of moral faults and failings.
