Özet
Guy Debord's Situationist theory, developed in the 1950s, analyzed how consumable goods increasingly express and mediate social relations in capitalism. Debord supported the understanding that art should no longer be privileged and asserted that it should be included in a single unified revolutionary practice. British playwright Howard Brenton is among the playwrights who were most affected by the Situationist movement. Brenton is known to have had sympathy for (or been sympathetic to) French Situationist political thought, especially in his early works. This study focuses on Brenton's plays Magnificence (1973) and Sore Throats (1979), examining the resonance of Situationist political theory in shaping Brenton's creative output while also considering the incorporation of the aggro effect in his narratives.
