Collective hero in dramatic action

S. Y. Zhukov

Abstrak

This article examines the specifics and role of the collective hero in dramatic theatrical performance. The relevance of the study stems from contemporary theater practice—today, the collective hero unfolds the director's authorial statement as both narrative and dramatic action. However, this topic has not been addressed in academic research. An analysis of the representation of the concept under study in literature and the performing arts (cinema and mass performances) is conducted; the function of the "collective hero" in dramatic performance is identified, and a definition of the concept is formulated. The study reveals key aspects of the collective hero as a bearer of culture, nationality, and statehood—sacredness, epicness, and mystery. The results of this study can enhance the competencies of both theater practitioners (in staging spectacular theatrical forms) and university and college instructors (in culture and art) in lectures and practical classes on directing, theater history and theory, cultural studies, and theater aesthetics.
