New Sensibility,New Thinking,and the New Pattern of Jon Fosse's Drama
The dramatic creation of Jon Fosse represents not just partial innovation,but a radical innovation compared to the European traditional drama from ancient Greece to Ibsen.This radical innovation is primarily evident in the shift from the idea-oriented philosophy that underpins traditional European dramatic creation,which emphasizes"seeing"a post-meta-physical philosophy tradition of"Existentialism-Deconstruction",which prioritizes"listening".By transforming"seeing"to"listening",Fosse reconstructs a"new sensibility"that integrates poetic,musical,divine,and dramatic elements.He also employs the philosophical ideas of Heidegger,Derrida,and others to develop his own new thinking,thereby creating a new kind of drama that merges minimalist drama,musical and verse drama,silent drama,gnostic dra-ma,and blank-leaving drama,forming a unique dramatic creation pattern.The core of his creation pattern lies in presenting the human condition and essence through listening,bringing out the"being and time"dimensions of humanity in crisis,anxiety,and the life-towards-death process.The integration of new sensibility and new thinking forms the new pattern of Fosse's dramatic creation.This pattern not only reflects the post-metaphysical era artist's reliance and emphasis on"listening"but also showcases the immense vitality of minimalist writing that di-rectly presents the essence.Furthermore,it highlights the particular importance of the"creative cooperation"of the recipients in contemporary artistic activities.
