Abstract
Lajos Egri (1888 – 1967), pozapomenutý americký dramatik maďarského původu, jehož hry se již dnes téměř nehrají, je autorem nejcennějšího textu o metodice dramatického psaní, jaká kdy vůbec byla vedle Aristotelovy Poetiky napsána.. Kniha je z r. 1942 a přeložena byla do spousty světových jazyků, mezi nimiž čeština zaujímá své místo nově až v r. 2013. Slovo překladatele, dramatika Jiřího Zygmy: „Já sám pro psaní her nemám žádná pravidla, nechávám se většinou vést intuicí, ale po přečtení a přeložení Egriho knihy jsem pocítil, že jsem zřejmě někde udělal chybu..“
Abstract (in English)
Among the many "how-to" playwriting books that have appeared over the years, there have been few that attempt to analyze the mysteries of play construction. Lajos Egri's classic, The Art of Dramatic Writing, does just that, with instruction that can be applied equally well to a short story, novel, or screenplay. Examining a play from the inside out, Egri starts with the heart of any drama: its characters. All good dramatic writing hinges on people and their relationships, which serve to move the story forward and give it life, as well as an understanding of human motives - why people act the way that they do. Using examples from everything from William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet to Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House, Egri shows how it is essential for the author to have a basic premise - a thesis, demonstrated in terms of human behavior - and to develop the dramatic conflict on the basis of that behavior. Using Egri's ABCs of premise, character, and conflict, The Art of Dramatic Writing is a direct, jargon-free approach to the problem of achieving truth in writing.
