Top Drama Flashcards

Welcome to our drama flashcards! Drama is the specific mode of fiction represented in performance. The term comes from a Greek word meaning "action". The two masks associated with drama represent the traditional generic division between comedy and tragedy. They are symbols of the ancient Greek Muses, Thalia, and Melpomene. Thalia was the Muse of comedy (the laughing face), while Melpomene was the Muse of tragedy (the weeping face).

Considered as a genre of poetry in general, the dramatic mode has been contrasted with the epic and the lyrical modes ever since Aristotle's Poetics (c. 335 BCE)—the earliest work of dramatic theory. We have created 3 sets of drama flashcards for you to study. Whether you are looking to brush up on your knowledge or if you are a newbie trying to find out more about it, make sure that you check these out for more information. Get to work!
