Excerpt from The Technique of the Drama: A Statement of the Principles Involved in the Value of Dramatic Material, in the Construction of Plays, and in Dramatic Criticism
To set forth at any length in a preface the limitations and qualifications of mere rule and device in dramatic art, would be simply to anticipate the constant warnings against conventionalism and academic fixity that run through this book.
The vitality of the drama would soon be exhausted if writers followed rule only and were ignorant of principles or indifferent to them. It would be possible to describe with almost mathematical exactness how certain forms of the drama are built up, particularly those that are fixed or extinct; but it marks a decadence of the drama when at every step you are met with the mandate from the mechanical people - including prompter and scene-shifter - that you are to do this and are not to do that.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a thorough examination of the principles and techniques involved in crafting a compelling drama. It establishes the definition of a drama as the imitation of a complete action, encompassed within a series of interconnected incidents, performed and expressed through speech and other theatrical elements. The author emphasizes that any idea can serve as the basis for a drama, provided it can be developed into a coherent and emotionally resonant action. The book delves into the concept of unity, the division of a play into acts, the principles of characterization, and the significance of adapting and dramatizing various forms of literature. Drawing upon examples from both classical and contemporary theatre, the author illustrates the importance of technical skill, such as the use of monologues, dialogues, and staging, in conveying theme and creating a sense of reality. By exploring the relationship between action, emotion, and consequence, this book offers valuable insights into the art of building a powerful and effective dramatic work. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330188248_0
