Popis: This article examines the New New Drama from the perspective of influences that historical and social changes of late XX - early XXI centuries had on Russian literary process. It also concentrates on the objective laws of Russian literature course. Modern Russian drama is viewed here as a method of conceptualization and criticism of new social and cultural reality, a grotesque mirror showing the consumerist crisis, which is first and foremost connected to excessive role of individual in modern culture, disruption of authority as a concept, destruction of the traditional axiological systems and demolition of moral law. Yet contemporary drama serves as an example of philosophical iction (similar to modern drama and experimental plays), it uses fundumentally new practices - such as hypernaturalism or metaphysical naturalism - to explore eternal values and themes. Author raises the problem of motif of violence (expressed in wide extensions of the corporal metaphor, scenes, motifs, storylines etc.) holding dominant position in plays of New Wave and New Drama. It is shown in the article that in the context of modern moral relativity, the strategy of violence in drama obtains axiologi-cal status and transforms into a search for alternative ideas, denotations and imperatives.
