of their interaction in the social setting of their storyworld. Since drama is prototypically an unmediated genre, the consciousness construction of characters is unravelled predominantly through their dialogue and action. Palmer finds fault with the prevalent internalist approach that the more traditional theories have regarding character and characterisation. He pleads for a more externalist view and regards all aspects of the character, psychological as well as social and outward actions as important. This chapter examines three different parts of playscripts where character construction happens: a) the dialogue that normally comprises the major part of playscripts, b) the stage directions and c) the introductory/explanatory passages. I will look at the existing theories regarding characterisation, briefly review them, discuss their shortcomings and suggest what could make them more compatible with my approach for this project. I will exclusively be dealing with playscripts and not the performance aspect of the play. Finally, I will briefly state the implications of such a framework for the discussion of group formation, intermentality and collective minds in drama.
