Critics of the drama agree that the
terms tragedy and comedy are not
satisfactory as applied to modern
dramas, since many so-called comedies
contain tragic effects, and humorous
scenes in so-called tragedies are
usual; hence the terms action drama
and passion drama would more accur-
ately mark the distinction between
the two kinds of plays
An action-play has a plot which
may be said to consist of complica-
ton and resolution; it's interest lies
in obstacles interposed to be removed.
and the result is intellectual satisfac-
ton. In the passion-p play a growing
strain is put upon our sympathy which
is not unlike COMPLICATION. But no
resolution follows; the progress leads
to ruin. and the pleasure derived is
from the feelings of pity and fear.
The word passion" means. first
what is suffered of good or had: and
second. the feelings generated by suf-

hy-standers. It's use as a dramatic
term thus suggests how In drama an
experience can he crashed through our
emotional nature: through our svmpa-
