Novelization and dramatization : possibilities of exchange and intersection


As compared to the opposition between the "model of the dramatic text and the model of the narrative text" in use during the last decades of the 20thcentury and inspired mainly by semiotic perspectives, it might be worth looking in a different manner and beyond the limits of “text” as a category at the complex, yet fruitful interaction between diegetic and mimetic dimensions, which characterise in particular, but not exclusively, the experience of twentieth-century and contemporary theatre. It might also be worth dwelling on the equally clear repercussions on the novel. Novelization and dramatization are thus envisaged as parallel experiences, within a perspective that tends not towards the separation or the schematic opposition of fields and models but, along the lines of Brecht's definition, towards a field describable in terms of "shift in accent".
