In my thesis, I analyse the current German political drama. However, the term political drama or theatre is difficult to define in general. In my work, I understand the concepts of political drama / theatre in the narrower sense, follow the engaged, appellative, left-wing (anti-capitalist) oriented the- atre of E. Piscator and Brecht, and at the same, in the broader sense, as socio-critical drama / theatre, i.e. relating to the problems of today's "polis" (city, state) and following mainly the tradition of new German and Austrian folk plays. In contemporary German political drama, the two trends outlined in the introduction can be traced. In their works, the first line (left-wing appellative) is followed mainly by playwrights and directors F. Richter and R. Pollesch, the other line (socio-critical) by D. Loher, O. Bukowski, T. Walser, or M. von Mayenburg.

O engajamento político de João das Neves possibilitou o desenvolvimento de um teatro voltado para os problemas candentes da realidade social brasileira, levando-o a formular uma obra de estrutura épica com suas especificidades próprias. Seu teatro, nesse sentido, procura esclarecer ao público certos aspectos da engrenagem social, integrar o espectador no espaço cênico e apresentar as personagens a partir de uma ótica social - e não individualizada, como é o caso do drama burguês / Abstract: This research analyses the dramaturgic production of João das Neves, encompassing the following plays: O último carro (1964), O quintal (1978), Mural mulher (1979), Café da manhã (1980) e A pandorga e a lei (1983-1984). These works were produced during the military dictatorship in Brazil. The political engagement of João das Neves made possible the development of a theatre turned to the effervescent problems of the Brazilian social reality, and leading the author to formulate an epic-structured play with its particular specificities. In this sense his dramaturgy aims to enlighten the public about some aspects of the social machinery, integrating the viewer to the scenic space. He also presents the characters from a social perspective ¿ non-individualized, as it is the case of the bourgeois drama / Mestrado / Artes / Mestre em Artes

The Reflection of the Exclusion Crisis (1678-1683) in Contemporary Literature Kristýna Hoblová abstract This work of literary history analyses the reflection of the Exclusion Crisis (1678-1683) in contemporary literature across genres. It is based on the theory of the rise of the public sphere by Jürgen Habermas and on the theory of Michael McKeon, understanding the ideology of the late Stuarts as a last remnant of aristocratic ideology. The Exclusion Crisis is presented here as a period of unsettling negotiations between the declining Stuart ethos and the Whig ideology of the rising mercantile classes. The interpretation of chosen texts serves to discover creative transformations of the political discourse of the newly emerging political parties of Whigs and Tories, stressing the negotiations between genres, individual authors and political ideologies. The first chapter offers a brief overview of the socio-historical context, Habermas's theory of the rise of the public sphere and Michael McKeon's conception of aristocratic ideology. It also introduces the Tory political theory defending the Stuart divine right of kings on the basis of Robert Filmer's patriarchal household-state analogy and the Whig defence against absolutist tendencies of the Stuarts through asserting the priority of Law over the Royal...
