Abstract

Itineraries of mise en abyme and ways of breaking the suspension of disbelief: from Puss in Boots by Ludwig Tieck to The Caucasian Chalk Circle by Bertolt Brecht and The Golden Dragon by Roland Schimmelpfennig. This paper analyzes the denial of mimesis on the basis of certain resources, such as meta-theater and the affirmation of contrivance in plays dating from the 18th to the 21st century.
