聖史劇の演出と上演 : 『聖霊降臨祭』を中心に

抄録

This Paper provides detail of Pentecoste, a kind of sacred plays called Sacre Rappresentazioni, which were presented in Florence in fifteenth century. Little is known so far about direction and presentation of Sacre rappresentazioni except for Annunciazione and Ascensione because of lack of document by the audience. However, checking the text by Giuseppe Richa of the eighteenth century and the documents of congregation makes us realize the detail of Pentecoste. This verification suggests two distinctions of the direction: overwhelming illumination with calorific value and replacement of wooden dolls with live performers. The former distinction naturally leads us to speculate interesting stimulus to the audience: on their sense of sight, hearing, smell and touch. In addition, the latter character suggests us a possibilitiy that the audience would receive the representation as a kind of heretic image of imparting life. Therefore, direction and presentation of Pentecoste coincidence with the fact that Sacre Rappresentazioni had cross-fields character.
