Explanation: Stage directions or didascaliae are express indications from the playwright addressed to the director and the actors regarding spatial, temporal and gestural aspects that do not form part of the verbally articulated text on stage.
2In the analysis of theatrical discourse, what is the fundamental characteristic of dramatic dialogue compared to traditional narrative text?

C.It is composed exclusively of detailed descriptions of settings without verbal action.
D.It absolutely excludes any kind of emotive or poetic function in the language.
Explanation: Dramatic dialogue lacks an intermediary narrator; it is based on double enunciation and the appellative function, where action and conflict advance through the direct exchange between characters.
3What is the main dramaturgical distinction between the monologue and the soliloquy?
A.The monologue is always expressed in verse, while the soliloquy must obligatorily be written in prose.
