dc.description.abstract This study shows the use of different expressionist devices in August Strindberg's play Ett dromspel (A Dream Ploy). To evaluate Strindberg's expressionism this study envisages two phases of Strindberg's art in the play under discussion. In the first phase, there is expressionist spatial discourse Where he juxtaposes multiple perspectives, such as pictorial style, abstract spatial and cyclical imagery. He not only accepts cross-fertilization between diverse forms of art and thought but also assists himself to dramatize frequent concerns with cognition, acuity, and reflection. Strindberg signifies that he would have favored a creation in the pictorial style, in which the nonfigurative Cyclical image of the plays accomplishment would be for grounded. In the second phase, this study manifests the expression’s' use of color in the play. Strindberg presents the chromatic style and the expressionist bird-eye view to establish the interaction of colors. His multicolored idiom breaks with Mimetic impressions of time and space and endeavors the recreation of ever-changing "chaos of color". His strongly painted and cautiously shaped pictures are just as lively for our imagination as the canvases we see in the Swedish environment with our own painterly eyes. en_US
