As letras germânicas, em meados dos anos sessenta do século XX, testemunharam o surgimento de uma nova geração de escritores, dentre eles o jovem e inquieto autor austríaco Thomas Bernhard, nascido na Holanda. Com a sua rebeldia, ele propunha uma nova convenção na literatura; no campo teatral provocaria não só os críticos e teóricos, mas principalmente, os espectadores, ao lhes oferecer peças que não faziam concessões. Este trabalho propõe introduzir o pensamento teatral de Thomas Bernhard, por meio da apresentação e discussão da sua dramaturgia, bem como inserir a tradução da sua peça Der Theatermacher - O fazedor de teatro. O escopo é mostrar que o teatro deste enfant terrible, ao usar aforismos, a estética do exagero e do grotesco, a ironia, monólogos e o teatro como tema, é discursivo e provocativo. Assim, ao problematizar e divulgar a criação e produção dramatúrgica de Thomas Bernhard, espera-se trazer uma contribuição que venha a despertar interesse e inquietações pelas ideias e procedimentos desse autor tão contemporâneo e provocador. / Germanic languages, back in the mid-60s in the twentieth century, witnessed the emergence of a new generation of writers, among whom the young and restless Austrian writer - Thomas Bernhard, who was born in the Netherlands. Armed with his defiance, he proposed a new principle in literature; in the stage-performance area it would inflame not only critics and theorists but mostly the audience when playing parts that made no concessions. This paper introduces Thomas Bernhard\'s drama-driven thinking by presenting and discussing his dramaturgy and includes a translation of his play Der Theatermacher - The Theatre Maker. The aim is to show that the plays of the enfant terrible of the theatre by using aphorismus, the aesthetics of overstatement and grotesque, irony, monologues and the theater as a subject, are discursive and provocative. Hence, this paper, in questioning and divulging the drama conception and production of Thomas Bernhard\'s plays, expects to arouse interest and uneasiness on the thoughts and methods of this overtly contemporary and provocative author.

O presente trabalho apresenta três possibilidades de comparação entre os textos de Anton Tchékhov e Tennessee Williams: a primeira trata-se de uma comparação formal, que investiga as semelhantes soluções dramatúrgicas encontradas pelos autores em relação à crise do drama, conceito elaborado por Peter Szondi; a segunda possibilidade se concentra sobre as semelhantes posições de classe (conceito de P. Bourdieu) encontradas na história russa e na história americana, que servem como substrato temático às peças analisadas; a terceira e última possibilidade de comparação apresentada está baseada no fenômeno de recepção das peças tchekhovianas nos Estados Unidos, considerando também a vasta repercussão das encenações do Teatro de Arte de Moscou sobre a cena americana. / This work presents three distinct possibilities of comparison between the texts of Anton Chekhov and Tennessee Williams: the first one is a formal comparison, it investigates the similar dramatic solutions the authors found to dramas crisis, a concept created by Peter Szondi; the second possibility concentrates over the similarities of class position (P. Bourdieus concept) found in Russian and Amercian history, these serve as the thematic substract of the plays analysis; the third and last possibility explored is based upon the reception of Chekhovs plays in the United States, considering the reprecussions of their productions by the Moscow Art Theatre on the American stage.

This thesis examines the position of Barcelona’s Gran Teatre del Liceu within Barcelona’s cultural lanscapeas a means of exploring its modern-day role as one of Europe’s most important opera houses. Other studies of the Liceu have provided extensive historical narratives, but have rarely considered any kind of sociological or cultural theory when analysing the theatre’s role in the city. Chapter 1 explores the Liceu in Spanish and Catalan literature and dramaturgy and questions its role as a representative of upper-class Barcelona culture, and the changes this role has undergone over the course of Spain’s transition to democracy. The Liceu’s location in the adjacent Raval district is examined in Chapter 2: the area has undergone considerable physical and demographic changes over the last decades, and the opera house’s relationship to this area and the larger Barcelona context is discussed in some detail. The third chapter contextualises the Liceu within the wider Catalan cultural panorama and examines the impact of the recession in Spain, which has greatly affected cultural spending, and consequently the theatre’s programme. This problem has been aggravated by an awkward, opaque system of management; the thesis provides examples and analysis of the difficulties the theatre experienced between 2010 and 2013. The final chapter seeks to underline the efforts of the artistic direction to make the Liceu a referent of modern European operatic productions, with three case studies of stagings that represent modern interpretations of opera by contemporary Catalan directors. These works have been chosen as representative of the Liceu’s determined modernisation of the operatic spectacle and of its commitment to local artists. The thesis aims to present a more critical view of Barcelona’s opera house that goes beyond chronological narrative and anecdote in depicting the modern-day situation of the institution and its place in the Barcelona context.

Esta tese investiga a representação do caipira na dramaturgia de Carlos Alberto Soffredini. Para isso, analiso quatro peças teatrais que tratam dessa temática: Na carrêra do divino, de 1979, A estrambótica aventura da música caipira, de 1990, Auto de Natal caipira, de 1992, e A madrasta, de 1995. A fim de entender como se construíram essas representações em sua obra, são examinados diversos elementos da cultura popular mobilizados pelo autor, a construção de personagens em cada peça, as escolhas entre recursos dramáticos ou épicos e as variadas fontes de pesquisa utilizadas pelo dramaturgo para a composição de seus textos, bem como a maneira como elas foram incorporadas. O trabalho também procura investigar as transformações ocorridas nessa construção do caipira dentro da produção do dramaturgo, entre o final dos anos 1970 e a década de 1990, e as mudanças em relação aos referentes anteriores nas letras e nas artes brasileiras do início do século XX (sobretudo a figura paradigmática de Jeca Tatu, criada por Monteiro Lobato). Sustento que há variações importantes no trabalho feito por Soffredini envolvendo a figura do caipira, que não é uma construção homogênea, como pretendo mostrar, o que nos leva a perceber, como um traço importante da sua dramaturgia, a consciência das contradições envolvidas no debate sobre a cultura popular. / This thesis investigates the representations of Brazilian rural man in Carlos Alberto Soffredini\'s dramaturgy. To do so, we analyze four plays that deal with such theme: Na Carrêra do Divino, from 1979, A estrambótica aventura da música caipira, from 1990, Auto de Natal Caipira, from 1992, and A Madrasta, from 1995. In order to understand how these representations were built into the author\'s work, we will analyze his use of different aspects of popular culture. We will also pay attention to: the construction of the characters in each play; the choices made between dramatic and epic resources and the variable research sources used by the author for the composition of his texts, as well as the way in which these sources were incorporated in his plays. The dissertation also seeks to investigate the transformations which occurred within Soffredini\'s work, between the late 70\'s and the 90\'s, and the changes in relation to the representation of the rural man in Brazilian\'s early twentieth century literature and culture (in particular, with reference to the paradigmatic figure of Jeca Tatu, by Monteiro Lobato). I argue and intend to show that there are important variations in Soffredini\'s work involving rural man\'s figure, which is not a homogeneous construction. This leads us to perceive, as an important aspect of his dramaturgy, a critical consciousness about the contradictions involving the debate surrounding popular culture.

Si le mot « hors-scène » est utilisé de manière empirique pour désigner des espaces, des personnages ou des épisodes invisibles, il n’appartient pas au vocabulaire technique du théâtre et il est parfois remplacé, dans l’usage, par des mots empruntés à d’autres champs artistiques comme « hors-champ », « off » ou « hors-cadre ». Ce flou terminologique en fait une notion-miroir reflétant des positionnements esthétiques et idéologiques, qui peuvent se rattacher à un discours de valorisation de l’invisible par opposition à une société de l’image. On l’abordera à travers l’œuvre de trois auteurs majeurs de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle, Marguerite Duras, Bernard-Marie Koltès et Jean-Luc Lagarce. Ils brouillent en effet, selon des modalités différentes, l’articulation de la scène et du hors-scène, donnant lieu, de ce fait, à des mises en scène et à des scénographies qui doivent se confronter à la redéfinition des limites de l’espace de la représentation. La frontière entre le visible et l’invisible ne coïncide plus chez eux avec l’articulation entre la scène et un espace périphérique contigu : elle est mobile et ne se laisse pas aisément localiser, et le hors-scène ne peut plus être envisagé comme un extérieur. Il peut être situé au cœur du visible ; il peut être issu d’un geste de cadrage qui organise les relations de la scène, de la salle et du monde, mais aussi d’un geste de montage qui en fait un hors-temps. Il se manifeste donc de manière discontinue, à travers des brèches ouvertes par divers moyens à l’intérieur d’un espace dramatique et/ou scénique aux limites fluctuantes. C’est pourquoi cette recherche se propose de dégager les enjeux dramaturgiques et scénographiques des usages du hors-scène dans les textes de ces auteurs, mais aussi dans une sélection de mises en scène de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle et du début du XXIe siècle ainsi que de scénographies, et de certaines créations sonores qui y sont associées. Il s’agit ainsi d’identifier différentes catégories de hors-scène et de définir plus précisément une notion qui pourrait bien manifester une modification des modalités de la perception et de la représentation. / The term hors-scène (“off-stage” with a dramaturgical and a scenographic meaning in French) is used in an empirical way to designate spaces, characters and or episodes that are invisible. It is not part of the technical vocabulary of the theater, and it is often replaced by words borrowed from other artistic fields such as “off”, or “out of frame”. Because of this lack of terminological precision, it is a notion that like a mirror reflects ideological and aesthetic orientations which can be related to a discourse that values the invisible, in opposition to an image-driven society. This notion of hors-scène is addressed through a study of the works of three major authors of the second half of the 20th Century: Marguerite Duras, Bernard-Marie Koltès and Jean-Luc Lagarce. Each one of them has his/her specific mode of blurring the lines between the stage and the off-stage, thus producing staging and making scenographies that have to tackle the redefinition of the limits of space and of representation itself. In their works, the boundary between the visible and the invisible no longer coincides with the articulation between the stage and an adjacent peripheral space. The hors scène is mobile and cannot be easily located : it can no longer be considered as what lies outside of the stage. It can be situated at the heart of the visible ; it can spring from a framing choice which orchestrates the relations between the stage, the house and the world, but also from a staging choice that materialises “timelessness”. It reveals itself discontinuously, through breaches opened up in a diversity of ways in a dramatic and/or scenic space whose boundaries themselves are in flux. The thesis identifies the dramaturgic and scenographic stakes of the uses of the hors-scène in the three authors' texts, as well as in a selection of stagings from the second half of the 20th Century and early 21st Century, as well as in scenographies and a number of sound/audio productions to which they are associated. The aim is to trace different categories of the hors-scène and to define more precisely this notion that could very well highlight a change in the modes of perception and representation.

Jusqu’ici les études sur le tacitisme des XVIe et XVIIe siècles se limitaient à la théorie politique et à l’historiographie. Ce travail étend l’analyse au théâtre, dans une optique comparatiste qui confronte, à propos du principat de Tibère, les pièces anglaises et françaises : Sejanus His Fall de Ben Jonson, Claudius Tiberius Nero d’un auteur anglais anonyme, La Mort de Germanic Caesar de Bénigne Griguette, Seianus de Jean Magnon, La Victime d’Estat de Jean Le Royer de Prade, La Mort d’Agrippine de Cyrano de Bergerac, Germanicus de Dominique de Colonia, et Germanicus d’Edme Boursault. Le plan de la thèse suit l’alternance des séquences dramaturgiques de la dissimulation, des affrontements verbaux et des coups de théâtre qui intègrent la pratique juridique. L’analyse de la dissimulation est répartie entre la non-interaction (observation, silence, discours dérobé sur scène), l’interaction (discours dissimulateur symétrique et asymétrique) et la distanciation (du public, et des récepteurs internes sur scène et en coulisses). Les séquences des affrontements verbaux sont examinées en fonction des preuves, des témoins et des arbitres dans les disputes dramatiques. Enfin, les séquences des coups de théâtre font objet d’une analyse en deux temps : la juridisation des conflits dramatiques et l’esthétisation de l’effet violent. La thèse se clôt sur un examen de la construction d’exemplarité dans les tragédies du corpus et des interprétations dramatiques du principat en tant que l’institution. Dans les appendices de la thèse se trouvent les transcriptions modernisées de quatre pièces rares du corpus français, accompagnées d’un commentaire philologique, littéraire et historique. / The studies of tacitism in the 16th and 17th centuries were limited so far to political theory and historiography. Our thesis extends the scope of research to theatre, in that it explores in a comparative perspective the rewritings of the principate of Tiberius in English and French 17th century tragedy: Sejanus His Fall by Ben Jonson, Claudius Tiberius Nero by an anonymous English dramatist, La Mort de Germanic Caesar by Bénigne Griguette, Seianus by Jean Magnon, La Victime d’Estat by Jean Le Royer, La Mort d’Agrippine by Cyrano de Bergerac, Germanicus by Dominique de Colonia and Germanicus by Edme Boursault. The arrangement of topics discussed follows a dramatic movement from the sequences of dissimulation and agonistic confrontation towards dramatic turns of events covered by legal procedure. The sequences of dissimulation are analysed in terms of non-interaction (observation, silence, asides), interaction (symmetrical and asymmetrical dissimulation) and the distancing effect (in regard to internal receivers and the audience). The study of agonistic sequences focuses on dramatic functions of proofs, witnesses and arbitrators. Finally, the dramatic turns of events are considered first from the point of view of their juridical origins and specific references to the legal procedure, and then with regard to the aesthetics of violence. The closure of the thesis broadens the perspective by analysing construction of exemplarity and dramatic interpretations of the principate as an institution. The appendices offer a standard language transcription of rarely studied French pieces of our collection, accompanied by a philological, literary and historical commentary.

No nascimento da modernidade houve um grande crescimento produtivo, o que levou ao incremento das instituições mediadoras da vida social. Os efeitos disso na esfera do discurso e da formação do sujeito se manifestaram também no teatro, na formação dos personagens. A passagem de uma mentalidade mítica para uma racionalista marcou os sujeitos, muitas vezes, de forma trágica, dilacerados entre demandas desencontradas e discursos opostos. A subjetividade se tornou o campo desse tipo de batalha. Um exemplo privilegiado desse momento é The Spanish Tragedy, de Thomas Kyd. Tragédia inaugural do teatro elisabetano, Kyd foi o primeiro autor a concentrar a maioria de seus monólogos em um único personagem, contrastando com peças anteriores, como Gorboduc, em que os monólogos eram mais distribuídos. Isso possibilitou uma concentração de tensão e um desenvolvimento dramatúrgico que influenciou gerações, inclusive um jovem dramaturgo iniciante chamado William Shakespeare. Não é apenas uma coincidência que Kyd tenha inaugurado com sua peça um gênero, as tragédias de vingança, que criou uma longa linhagem, cujo representante mais ilustre é Hamlet. Mas esse desenvolvimento concentrado, que permitiu um crescendo ao longo da peça, se olhado de perto, apresenta uma outra dimensão. A fatura linguística dos monólogos traz materiais das mais diversas fontes. Se estão presentes recursos linguísticos da literatura clássica e da retórica da corte, também aparece uma dicção provinda da burguesia, seja das controvérsias religiosas, seja dos livros de cortesão, que discutiam o comportamento adequado em sociedade. Temos, portanto, recursos textuais provenientes dos atores sociais que tencionavam a época: aristocracia decadente e burguesia ascendente. Vistos em sequência, os monólogos apresentam uma transição das formas mais tradicionais e conservadoras de discurso para as mais modernas. Dessa forma, o desenvolvimento do personagem e a estrutura dramatúrgica construída em torno dele se tornam um espelho de sua época. A mesma tensão que vemos no grande quadro da história, se fecharmos o foco sobre o personagem e, mais ainda, sobre sua interioridade, nos monólogos, reaparece nas suas formas de discurso. Ao fazer um panorama histórico, uma descrição da evolução do personagem e um exame detalhado de momentos-chave de seus monólogos, esperamos demonstrar esses nexos. / In the birth of modernity, there was a great productive growth, which led to the increase of institutions mediating social life. The effects of this situation in the sphere of social discourse and in the formation of the subjects also manifested themselves in the theater, in the formation of the characters. The transition from a mythical mentality to a rationalist one marked the subjects, often tragically, torn between disjointed demands and opposed discourses. Subjectivity became the battlefield of this type of struggle. A prime example of this moment is The Spanish Tragedy, by Thomas Kyd. Kyd was the first author to concentrate most of his monologues on a single character, contrasting with earlier plays such as Gorboduc, where the monologues were more widely distributed. This enabled a concentration of tension and a dramaturgical development that influenced generations, including a young beginner playwright named William Shakespeare. It is not only a coincidence that Kyd inaugurated, with his play, a genre, the revenge tragedy, which created a long lineage, the most illustrious representative being Hamlet. But this concentrated development, which allowed a crescendo throughout the play, if looked closely, presents another dimension. The linguistic making of the monologues brings materials from the most diverse sources. If linguistic resources of classical literature and court rhetoric are present, there is also a diction from the bourgeoisie, whether from the religious controversies or from the court books, which discussed proper behavior in society. Therefore, we have textual resources coming from the social actors who confronted each other in that era: decadent aristocracy and rising bourgeoisie. Viewed in a sequence, the monologues show a transition from the more traditional and conservative forms of discourse to the more modern ones. In this way, the development of the character and the dramatic structure built around him become a mirror of his time. The same tension that we see in the great picture of history, if we close the focus on the character, even more, on his interiority, in the monologues, reappears in his forms of discourse. Making a historical overview, a description of the development of the character and a detailed examination of moments of his monologues, we hope to demonstrate these links.

The theme is the artistic making of actresses-storytellers, the lace makers of bilro (a Brazilian kind of artisanal bobbin), the legends of the town of Raposa from the metropolitan area of São Luís-MA, and the three Moiras of Greek mythology: Atropos, Láquesis and Clotho. The process of creation took place through collaborative theater with the playwright present in the rehearsals, in the assembly process and in the presentations, with no hierarchies of functions between the professionals involved. This process lasted about three years, from 2012 to 2015, with its debut in March 2015. The study is divided into three chapters in which the process of costume making, weaving, cutting, sewing and adjusting are used as metaphors to signal each stage of the text making: the research, the construction of the fable, the treatment of the text and the changes in the text throughout rehearsals, assembly and presentation. Interdisciplinary research promotes a dialogue between cinema (script and editing) and theater, with a greater emphasis on dramaturgy, also covering acting, direction and set design. Then it is highlightened the figure of the playwright as a writer-rhapsode, who works with junctions and disjunctions of textual forms, and also - extending the concept coined by Sarrazac (1981) -, who writes on the basis of multiple informations, propositions and discoveries from the creation process. / A dissertação aqui apresentada tem como objetivo principal estruturar o processo de criação do texto do espetáculo As Três Fiandeiras. A obra tem como tema o fazer artístico de atrizes-contadoras de história, as rendeiras de Bilro, as lendas da cidade da Raposa pertencente à zona metropolitana de São Luís-MA e as três Moiras da mitologia grega: Átropos, Láquesis e Cloto. O processo de criação se deu por via do teatro colaborativo com o dramaturgo presente nos ensaios, no processo de montagem e nas apresentações, não havendo hierarquias das funções entre o profissionais envolvidos. Esse processo durou cerca de três anos, de 2012 até 2015, com estreia em março de 2015. O estudo se divide em três capítulos nos quais o processo de confecção da roupa, a tecelagem, o corte, a costura e o ajustes são utilizados como metáforas para sinalizar cada etapa da confecção do texto: a pesquisa, a construção da fábula, o tratamento do texto e as mudanças do texto ao longo dos ensaios, montagem e apresentação. A pesquisa interdisciplinar promove um diálogo entre o cinema (roteiro e montagem) e o teatro, com tônica maior na dramaturgia, abrangendo também a atuação, a direção e a cenografia. Destaca-se então a figura do dramaturgo como escritor-rapsodo, que trabalha com junções e disjunções de formas textuais e, também - estendendo o conceito cunhado por Sarrazac (1981) -, que escreve a partir de múltiplas informações, proposições e descobertas provindas do processo de criação.

La question de la réécriture du théâtre au XVIIIe siècle implique tout d’abord une réflexion sur le statut de l’œuvre littéraire à une époque où les droits d’auteur au sens où nous l’entendons aujourd’hui n’étaient pas reconnus et où le respect scrupuleux de la lettre des textes publiés n’était pas une obligation. Les auteurs postclassiques construisent en effet leur esthétique dramaturgique d’après la dramaturgie des auteurs de l’époque de Louis XIV. Ce processus relève principalement de leur ambition d’atteindre la réputation de Molière, de Racine et de Corneille. Une situation identique se produit aussi chez les auteurs des suites théâtrales du Mariage de Figaro de Beaumarchais. Par toutes ces caractéristiques, le théâtre du XVIIIe siècle représente sans doute une prolongation du théâtre du siècle précédent. Néanmoins, les éléments novateurs se profilent à travers les pièces des auteurs de l’époque. Ces éléments contribuent en même temps à la prise de distance avec la dramaturgie classique qui (la prise de distance) se développera progressivement. Par exemple, les successeurs de Molière, avec Marivaux au premier rang, semblent amplement influencés par la dramaturgie de l’auteur du Tartuffe et du Misanthrope. Cependant, pour ces dramaturges, le théâtre de Molière ne fut qu’un modèle permettant la constitution de leur propre esthétique théâtrale. Presque chaque auteur comique du XVIII siècle apporte une dimension novatrice personnelle et originale. Cette étude devrait donc permettre d’établir une typologie des réécritures théâtrales au XVIIIe siècle. / The problem of theatrical rewritings in the 18th century, i.e. the imitations of the great classics is primarily related to the thought of a literary work status in the period in which the authorship rights (in the form known nowadays) were not founded. Namely, in the 18th century there was no obligation as to the respect of author’s rights to any published work. Postclassical authors modelled their dramaturgical aesthetics after the dramaturgy of the authors of the time of Louis XIV. This process is mainly due to their ambition to rival the reputation of Molière, Racine and Corneille. An identical situation also occurs among the authors of the theatrical sequels of the Marriage of Figaro by Beaumarchais. By ail these characteristics, the theater of the eighteenth century probably represents an extension of the theater of the previous century. Nevertheless, the innovative elements are profile in the plays of the authors of the time. At the same time these elements contribute to the detachment from classical dramaturgy which (detachment) will develop gradually. For example, Molières successors, with Marivaux in the forefront, seem to be heavily influenced by the dramaturgy of the author of Tartuffe and Misanthrope. However, for these playwrights, the theater of Molière was only a model allowing the constitution of their own theatrical aesthetics. Almost every comedy playwright of the eighteenth century introduces a personal and original innovative dimension. This study should therefore make it possible to establish a typology of theatrical rewritings in the 18th century.
