Learning outcomes of the course unit:

The goal of the seminar is to familiarize students with current European theatrical or dramatic works, especially those based on different principles from the theatrical culture of Central Europe or of the Czech Republic and is therefore neglected by current czech dramaturgy. The emphasis is on work with texts that do not fall into traditional dramatic categories and therefore are resistant to classic dramaturgical analysis. An integral part of the seminar is also reflection on the different preception of the dramatic or of theatricality in various (European) cultures.
