Labirynty współczesnych teorii dramatu

Аннотация

The review article presents an assessment of the collective monograph New Theoretical Terms for Understanding Drama. Slavic Perspectives (Natalia Maliutina and Jarosław Ławski (Eds), Białystok – Odessa 2014) on contemporary European drama. The authors involved are Polish, Russian and Ukrainian scholars who elaborate on the present-day development of traditional drama species (comedy, tragedy, ‘comédie en vandeville’) as well as the new ones (stand-up). The book is a significant contribution to the academic domains of drama, theatre and literary theory. The neatly published work also contains biographical notes of the articles’ authors and interesting theatre photographs.
