7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Comprehensive tool for drama analysisBy A CustomerI found this book very helpful during my academic studies of theatre and drama. With traditional German thoroughness Pfister analyses and categorises the wide range of different elements that go together in creating a theatrical performance. Some might find his detailed charts a bit too semiotic in orientation; and the translation from German results in rather long complicated sentences. However; Pfisters genuine understanding of dramaturgy and dramatic tools makes fascinating reading. The books comprehensiveness also makes it an excellent tool for analysing written and staged drama.
