Abstract

After his previous work dedicated to Night just before the Forests, the author returns to exploring the relations between Koltès biographical elements and theatrical writing and how they intertwine in French dramatist's plays. The author employs the French playwright epistolary and interviews to identify characters biographical sources and places references in the pièce Black Battles with Dogs: through a metaphorical and allegorical process, the idea of metamorphosis becomes dramaturgical driving force and signature style characterizing Koltès wok.
