Physical Fable
Machová, Helena ; VLASÁK, Jonáš (advisor) ; SOPROVÁ, Jana (referee)
Bachelor thesis entitled Physical Fable or Animal Character in Ritual and Theatre explores the use of animal characters in rituals of different cultures and in European theatre. It emphasizes the use of a mask for this purpose. The work draws from both the theoretical ethnological, cultural and similar sources, as well as from the texts of theatre makers, who have many years of practical experience. After introducing the concepts and linking the work to previous research, it focuses on understanding the differences and similarities between the ritual and the theater and the role of the mask in each one. It suggests the hypothesis that the ritual elements still exist in the theater among actors and theater makers, and they are therefore trying to return the ritual to the theater. There follows the exploration of various (mostly still alive) traditions including an animal character, from which a similar return could get inspired.
