The cultural discourse of theatrical performance defines the theatre sign interaction as an active
semiosis. This, in turn, specifies the main objective of the study – the formulation of the basic parameters of this
architectonics as a fundament of
théâtralité. Since the time of Antiquity the theatre has always been discussing general aesthetic, philosophical, ethical and social issues in the context of a visual image of the specific objects of an intellectual discourse. The book takes a close look at this process of signification, formation of meanings, presentation and interpretation on stage: a theatre performance is a product of an intense sign environment and a major symbol of theatricality.
