"Théâtre et christianisme" di Charles Mazouer. Per una lettura globale del teatro francese.

Charles Mazouer's essay on Théâtre et christianisme analyzes the complex - partially harmonious and partially conflicting - relationship between French theatre and religion, from medieval mystères to the revival of a religious theatre in the Twentieth century. The analysis is particularly focused on Sixteenth and Seventeenth centuries. In these centuries, on the one hand there is the Christianization of the Greek and Latin theatre, and on the other hand there is the secularization of the medieval religious theatre. It is a process that gives birth to modern theatre, with its mixing of different theological currents, philosophies and cultural sources.
