El juego y el rito como fundamentos de la estructura dramática en tres obras de Egon Wolff: Los invasores, Flores de papel y Cicatrices

摘要

Inside the dramatic world of Egon Wolf, social playacting establishes itself as a major theme. Its multiple and diverse modes of representation in his extensive dramaturgy could be summarized in two, appearing with different mances and combination throughout his work. On the one hand, they become the fundament of the ritual conventions of the commonplace acts of the characters, with the function of dissembling and self protection in front of the social reality which is perceived as hostile. In this case, playacting is a resource intended to neutralize and manipulate the other for personal benefit through masking strategies; but also the ludic element appears with creative and libertarian characteristics that are the character's own, as an option for authenticity.
