Ribât es-Salâm. Drammatica dell’ospitalità nell’opera teatrale Pierre e Mohamed di Adrien Candiard

Abstract

The aim of this article is to present and interpret the play Pierre and Mohamed by Adrien Candiard from the point of view of hospitality as a “style”, proposed by Christoph Theobald, which consists in the absolute concordance between form and content, a way of inhabiting the secular and postmodern world. Our aim is to demonstrate that hospitality thus experienced is a “theological locus” for the 21st century, a place of God’s presence in the frontiers of the human. We choose to start “from” the play Pierre and Mohamed by Adrien Candiard, with the aim of revealing how it is “within” the drama of hospitality that the way “towards” peace presents itself.
