Basic Overview Of Phoenix Plays

By Ida Dorsey


The emergence of multidisciplinary arts also developed a type of non-verbal parts of, dance or mixed (eg with Jan Lauwers). First appeared with the Dada and Futurist movements, such drama is out of avant-garde theater to become quite popular. Evidenced for example by the success of James mounted with Symphony of beetle even Moliere received four parts (Phoenix plays).

Finally, in twentieth century, some authors, such as Jean Anouilh Jean Giraudoux with Antigone or with Electra, show ancient myths. One sees the political theater, in which the authors put their philosophical ideas, as Albert Camus Caligula. Some writers like Ionesco react strongly to this absurd political theater by parts, in which the author depict scenes without apparent meaning to viewer think differently.

The religious currents - to remedy the corruption of morals - trying to reconcile the religious spirit of new with the old pagan forms. The result is the sacred representation: it traces its birth holy homily, when it becomes dialogic educational purposes and exhortation. A more valid argument traces the passion play in development of Roman liturgy, which is already in its pure form is filled celebration of dramatic elements (the sacrifice of Mass as a symbolic representation, in form of dialogue between the celebrant and assistants).

The origins of later back to antiquity. Greek tragedies played in religious rites in honor of god Dionysus. These ancient themes are included in sixteenth century by the first playwrights as Garnier or Jodelle, and in seventeenth century by authors such as Corneille, who began by writing baroque comedy and tragicomedy, as Le Cid. But gradually imposed in name of verisimilitude, respect for rules specific to classical theater: the rule of decency and the rule of three units.

In general, the derived words have retained the original meaning, tied to a theatrical writing: drama, drama. For the adjective dramatic there are different practice to use more tied to roots for those who work in this discipline on the concept of drama in its sense of tragedy in usual sense. For example, the theater is designated as a skilled dramatic actor in general one who has mastered the art of drama, and it is usual to define a dramatic actor of film or television only in relation to content or tragic conflict of his acting.

Finally we have a popular theater, characterized both by the clownish (typical of mimes and farces) and religious. Typical was the "drama mixed", which is distinct from the liturgical drama for contamination of genres and the introduction of first sentences in vernacular. In production of this current are also comedies, there's still a popular pantomime, Dinner Cypriani.

The combination of drama-conflict is often expressed in fields other than strictly theatrical often referred to literary works intended for the stage, talking about their dramatic, or musical works or similarly with the other arts. A classic drama does not have a very precise connotation. Generally usually indicates the dramas of tragic and comic in world greek and latin lived in Athens of fifth century BC Rome until the first century A. D. Depending on the historical period, the classic drama now presents itself as politically / religiously committed and now as a simple fun of upper classes.

The main genres - tragedy and comedy - were also diversified by author and historical context, but maintained a common basis: the tragedy always represented a mythical argument (with a few exceptions of historical argument) and made use of style often solemn, as well as many stage machinery, while the play a great story or taken from everyday life. Do not forget the minor genres, such as farce or Roman mimes.
