Drama

Drama is one of the realistic genres and non-realistic genres; Among the first, tragedy and comedy are registered (from the beginning), and later other modalities are added such as didactic work and tragicomedy (also known as classic tragic comedy), which began to be generated from the Renaissance. Finally, the farce must be added, considered by some as the "impossible genre". All of them have in common the representation of some episode or conflict in the life of human beings through the dialogue of the characters or the monologue. In the dramatic genre, the author brings the development of the action to the scene: the events are not recounted, but are represented. Its expressive form is dialogue and the characters come to life thanks to actors who stage it. A work that includes serious or serious themes, passages or elements is usually called drama, especially when it has a "tragic ending", but the term also refers to comic works (at least in Western culture, where it is considered that it was born from term drama). As a genre, then, it includes both tragedy and comedy.
