#through the entire work is awesome‚ but how playwriters do that in the little time they often take to write plays amazes me

Something about the way Roxane with the cadets lifting their mood parallels Cyrano with the nuns lifting their mood

#The similarities between them are EVERYTHING and it's outrageous how left aside they are in so many adaptations #I keep coming back to this play every night but I can't help it. It's so funny and it's heartbreaking and so full of details and parallels #Well written plays always amazing in their craft. Spending five years and having a novel full of small details and motifs scattered #through the entire work is awesome‚ but how playwriters do that in the little time they often take to write plays amazes me #And yes‚ they have some plots‚ dynamics‚ motifs‚ schemes and even lines they repeat over and over #But at times they write something so well written‚ with so much depth‚ so many details and relationships so intimately crafted #And yes when I reread this play I sometimes think that I may be overinterpreting‚ or that the author himself didn't notice this or that #But the fact it's that for the most part things are *there* ans are there intentionally. And wow how to do that so well in so little time #Lope de Vega my beloved #I talk too much #Cyrano de Bergerac #Cyrano #Roxane #I should probably delete this later #And write things down so I can actually delete these posts #always amaze me in* #is that* #Let's pretend there are no typos I give up #When is tumblr going to implement tag editing in the app I wonder #In three years perhaps
