Abstract:
This dissertation aims at reconstruing Leopold Jessner’s theatre aesthetics through the
analysis of his theatrical essays. Jessner was one of the most influential German theatre
directors during the Weimar Republic. His figure came along in the cultural landscape in the
same years the director’s theatre emerged in both Europe and Germany. Through the
analysis, this dissertation also aims at rethinking Jessner’s theatre aesthetics in the artistic and
cultural landscape of the Weimar Republic.
The second chapter of the dissertation presents Jessner as a theatre director and focusses
on the obstacles and labels that prevented a scientific evaluation of his work.
The third chapter proposes an analysis of the author’s corpus. In order to shed light on the
key aspects of Jessner’s aesthetics, the investigation is organised in four macro-sections: Der
Theaterleiter, Zeittheater und Theaterpolitik, Regie und Schauspielkunst and Betrachtungen und
Bekenntnisse.
The fourth chapter summarises the results of the analysis and presents Jessner’s Stil des
Wesentlichen, focussing on its key elements: the dramaturgical method, the role of scenic
design, and of the actor and the relationship with the audience. The last section of the chapter
investigates the correlation between Jessners’ Stil des Wesentlichen, Expressionism and New
Objectivity.
