A Modern Theater Language Consultant Approach: An Analysis of Matjaž Zupančič’s Play Hodnik (The Corridor)

Abstract

Z razvojem novih uprizoritvenih praks se je spreminjala tudi estetika odrskega govora, pojav raznovrstnih tematik besedil je terjal drugačen, sodoben lektorski pristop, na govorno realizacijo besedila v gledališču pa vselej vplivajo tudi odrske okoliščine in množica drugih gledaliških izraznih sredstev. Prispevek na osnovi odlomka iz uprizoritve sodobne drame Hodnik Matjaža Zupančiča prikaže proces preoblikovanja zapisanega dramskega besedila v govorjeno in z nekoliko drugačnega zornega kota, v razmerju do medijskega govora, opozarja na dejstvo, da raba govorjenega knjižnega jezika lahko ovira ali cello onemogoča razvijanje umetniškega govora oz. odrskega govora v gledališčuThe aesthetics of stage speech have changed with the development of new practices in staging plays. Unique and peculiar themes have encouraged and promoted a different, more modern approach by language consultants. Moreover, the spoken realization of a text in the theater is also always affected by the circumstances on stage and a set of other theatrical forms of expression. This article describes the process of transforming a theater text into spoken reality on the stage based on an excerpt from the staging of the contemporary play Hodnik (The Corridor) by Matjaž Zupančič. It raises open questions regarding standard spoken language and language in theater in general by examining this phenomenon from a different point of view
