| Abstract | ||
| "A soliloquy is a literary device often used in drama whereby a character relates his or her thoughts and feelings without addressing any of the other characters." Soliloquy is distinct from monologue and aside. The study is treating the absence of the use of the soliloquy in modern drama because some dramatists believe that it is more important to let the audience understand and comprehend that today's playwright makes himself responsible of conveying all the needed information to the audience without blockading the action by adding more soliloquies that can fall into long narrative and descriptive speeches .Modern dramatists strongly have faith in treating the audience with greater respect to assume that the audience can make his own deductions from his own observations. Modern playwrights are sure that the audience can have a full picture of the character if he gets the reality of this character from within to without .Thus it is a conflict between the followers of the traditional school of drama and those followers of the newer school. The study is to shed more light on the ideas that realists believe in when dropping the use of soliloquy in their writings. | ||
