Abstract
"Drama is a representation of the will of man in conflict with the mysterious powers or natural forces which limit and belittle us; it is on e of us thrown living upon the stage, there to struggle against fatality; against social law; against one of his fellow mortals; against himself...; against the ambitions, the interests, the prejudices, the folly, the malevolence of those around him." - Brunetiere, The Law of the Drama.
