Relation Towards Domestic Plays Through the Prism of Theatrological Experience Totality in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Abstract

As M. Marković claims „there is dark over each of our histories, as well as over the cultural one“, the aim of this paper is: a) to show unexplored or forgotten facts related to the history of our plays, to prove that the history of plays in Bosnia and Herzegovina can be observed from the Medieval times; b) to position and analyze Bosnian and Herzegovinian plays in a social, cultural and artistic context. Overviews of repertoires of professional theatrical institutions and audience habits, especially in the post-World War II period, can help in the understanding of the specific contemporary position of domestic plays on theatre stages in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
