Драма

Драма (drama) is a term used to describe a genre of literature, theatre, and film that focuses on the depiction of serious, often emotional conflict and character development. In its traditional sense, drama encompasses works that are intended to be performed by actors on a stage, presenting stories that explore complex human experiences and relationships. The essence of drama lies in its ability to evoke emotional responses from the audience through dialogue, action, and the portrayal of real-life issues.

In a broader context, drama can also refer to the overall narrative and characters involved in a story that creates tension and emotional engagement, regardless of the medium. This term is often contrasted with comedy, which tends to focus on humor and lighter themes. Dramatic works can include tragedies, which often feature sorrowful themes and the downfall of the protagonist, as well as more contemporary forms that address social, political, or personal issues. The use of dramatic techniques, such as monologues, soliloquies, and dramatic irony, enriches the storytelling and deepens the audience’s connection to the characters and their journeys.
