Research Abstract |
The main purpose of this study is the transition process of French drama from the humanism drama in the 16th century to the baroque drama, the classical drama, and the enlightenment drama in the 18th century, with the 17th century being the peak. One of the ideas we got is that the transition from the drama of statical "elegie" to the dynamic baroque drama is very much due to the development of theater architecture, and due to the perspective method.Drama was produced not only to let us listen to a beautiful poem, but to let us view using skills with abundant spectacle. If it goes on to long, it will be a useless story, and will drift away from "vraisemblance". Thus it changes into a deep psychological description theorized by P.Corneille. From this psychological description, a play has a great regard for "rhetorique" and all sorts of "reglements" are considered very important, more important than the spectacle itself. That is what we call classical drama. The pursuit of "vraisemblance" makes the "stance" in the 17th century disappear in the following century and changes the drama into more daily conversational things. In this way, to round off the distinctive marks of transitive process which come into the mind, it is thought that the underlying French drama theme from the 16th century to the 18th century is that of seeking after "vraisemblance". On the purpose of it, in each era, a various "reglements" or "restrictions" are made, and on the other hand "rhetorique" is developed. From now on, deeper research and investigation is needed to establish a firm conclusion on French drama history.
