Abstract

The Chinese Yuan drama is featured by the dramatic and humanoid figures created. The characters in Yuan drama are full of characteristics and vitality and burnish the value of Yuan drama. The dramatic characterization in Yuan drama is achieved within a role system featured by Danben and Moben script division. For each categorized role, a certain kind of opening lines are delivered, indicating the typified character. The characteristics of dramatis personae then are presented through dramatic arrangement of dramatic plots and dramatic events. In certain sense, the dramatic structure is for dramatic characterization, while the development of dramatic events and plots are to back up dramatic characterization.
