| Abstract | |
This thesis is dedicated to the study of a popular form of theater of India: Theru-k-koothu , having as object of research the study of theatrical culture that characterizes it, seeking to understand the theatrical phenomenon in cultural, social and historical aspects and their impact in common life. The research is based on the observation of this theatrical form, of rural and folk origin, having as guiding axis its evident involvement with all the local ritual culture. It then advances to the understanding and analysis of its structure of organization and functioning as the most important dramatic form of the state of Tamil Nadu and ends by pointing out its influence and reverberation of Theru-K-Koothu in the contemporary theatrical scene, within the state and abroad. The research intends to offer a first contact with this form of Indian folk theater in Brazil, study unheard in Portuguese language, covering anthropological aspects and advancing toward the sedimentation of its dramatic aspects, not only in the theatrical field, but in the entire spectrum of community life in a complex, organic and fluid process between life and art (AU) | |
