Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to explore the social and political conditions that led the author Alexandre Dumas Jr. to choose the Théâtre du Gymnase to the release of his play Le Demi-Monde, in 1855. The source used was the prelude presented in the collection Complet Theater, published in 1898, in which the author explains his reasons to write the play focusing on this theater and to refuse representing in the Théatre-Français. The theoretical basis comprehends the specificity of the theatrical dialogue and its triple situation of enunciation, concepts founded in Dominique Maingueneau’s Pragmática para o discurso literário (1996).
