Abstract

“Stage Combat”: This paper deals with the artistic interpretation of violence performed by actors, aimed to entertain the audience and to send a humanistic message through a choreographed ritual. The study presents a twofold classification: agonist / antagonist; conducting an historical tour of artistic representation of stage combat through different stages and diverse cultures. It tackles the artistic preparation of the performer and the choreographer and foresees the future perspectives of this artistic discipline.
