Abstract
The dramaturgies of existence, or the tragedy in everyday life in theatre: Karolina Czerska, Tadeusz Kantor i Maurice Maeterlinck. Dramaturgie istnienia [Tadeusz Kantor and Maurice Maeterlinck. Dramaturgies of existence] Karolina Czerska’s book offers a comparative study in which the theater of Maurice Maeterlinck is confronted with the theatrical work of Tadeusz Kantor. The author has set herself two major objectives: on the one hand, she wants to popularize Maeterlinck’s dramaturgy with the Polish public, and on the other, she evokes the works of the Belgian writer in the context of Kantor’s stage productions, which agrees to revisit and reconsider the work of the Polish theater director from a new perspective. By comparing the work of these two theater men, Czerska examines four themes where their artistic concepts seem similar: the conceptions of the “tragique quotidien” (tragedy in everyday life) and the “invisible”, the construction and status of the character as well as the function of the actor.
