Taking this essential question and looking at a broad range of Western plays, from Greek tragedies through Ibsen, we can discern a remarkably stable set of dramaturgical principles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome dramatists adhere to traditional principles to create meaning, while others delight in bending or breaking these conventions, seeking new ways to express meaning. In this book, Michael Evans discusses what he calls “standard dramaturgy” – a set of seven principles upon which most plays, from ancient Greek dramas to modern works, are based. He teases out seven traits found in most plays written before 1900 – and many popular plays and films since then. The book then looks at these key traits and how the playwrights of the Modernist era deliberately subvert them to create new methods of meaning. Examining each of these traits with well-chosen examples from dramatic literature, the book highlights these traits and illustrates how dramaturgs can understand instances of meaning within plays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart of the Routledge Focus on Dramaturgy series, this book will interest scholars and students of dramaturgy, directing, and theatre studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBook details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; \"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eNLS9781138333840\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eISBN 13\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003e9781138333840\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eISBN 10\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003e1138333840\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eMichael Evans\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eFocus On Dramaturgy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eCondition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eNew\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eBinding Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eRoutledge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eYear published\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003e2025-04-25\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eNumber of pages\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003e116\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eCover note\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eBook picture is for illustrative purposes only, actual binding, cover or edition may vary.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67735421354229,"sku":"NLS9781138333840","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/8632\/8821\/files\/1138333840.jpg?v=1792241645","url":"https:\/\/arbiyas.com\/products\/dramaturgy-by-michael-evans-nls9781138333840","provider":"Arbiyas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
