THE FEATURE OF RENAISSANCE DRAMATURGY OF THE ENGLISH LITERATURE

Abstrak

This article discusses the features of renaissance dramaturgy of English literature. During the Renaissance in England, dramatic literature, closely connected with the widespread development of theatrical performances and performing arts at that time, reached a special flourishing. Renaissance theater developed in England somewhat differently than in other European countries. Its evolution from medieval theater was much more gradual and organic here than, for example, in Italy or France. Having experienced the influence of both ancient and classical-humanistic dramaturgy of Europe, English drama nevertheless largely retained its folk character, growing directly from the dramatic genres of the Middle Ages - morality plays and interludes.
