Peer Review Process
Revision and approval of contributions will be done in pairs. The articles' evaluation process is documented in the Dramaturgies Journal archives. Submitted texts are sent to the Scientific Commission and to ad hoc evaluators by the Editorial Commission. Texts are evaluated with a blind-review process, according to the following criteria: first, they must fit in with the editorial aims of the Journal; second, texts should follow the proposed editorial guidelines; and, finally, the quality of the manuscript will be evaluated. Besides this process, the Editorial Team invites a specialist to organize a thematic group of texts for the journal. This guest editor selects texts based on his expertise and sends them to the Editorial Team. All selected texts are reevaluated by the Scientific Commission.

H. G. Gadamer tem nos alertado para a abstração em arte. Segundo o autor, "a abstração da consciência estética produz algo que é, para si mesmo, positivo. Permite ver e existir por si mesmo aquilo que é a pura obra de arte. Chamo a esse seu produto de ‘distinção estética’ (GADAMER 1997:30)".
