Abstract: We are faced with the fact that the "new" techniques used by contemporary theatre scripts are
actually not that new, but are the consequence of the changes and conversions that are
continuous in drama since the Renaissance, which constitutes the beginning of modern drama.
While on the one hand of the mechanism, that triggers these changes and conversions, are great
social developments and historical turning points, on the other hand are the ceaseless
experiments and the search for new phraseologies of writers, actors, theorists, critics and
directors, in the sequel. This study will try to focus on the literary features that are prominent in
contemporary theatre scripts by drawing upon these two platforms and will put emphasis on new
methods of analysis with examples that have distinctive features in terms of genre. |
