Author(s):
Abstract:
The emergence of the ideal city in history has always attracted the attention of the human mind and influenced the thoughts and opinions of philosophers and political thinkers. The present study, using qualitative-interpretive analysis attempts to consider the evolution of the meaning of this term in history, political philosophy and social thought and its entry into the West and its literary and artistic works and then survey its influence on interactions and cultural institutions, particularly the theater. The purpose of the present paper is considering the origin of the idea of utopia in the West and its reflection in contemporary theater. In this approach, some philosophers have tried to offer theories about the ideal society. While Plato, Moore and Campanella have presented a general plan, there are others such as Marx and Fukuyama who have theorized it and based on that some governments were formed. The present researcher illusatrates the most important theories of utopian ideology in the history of social and political thought in western philosophy, considering the most valid refrences in research. Then, with a focus on the West, he examines the impact of social, cultural and political conditions of the time on the ideological frameworks and perspectives, and thereby concludes that theater is the ideal vehicle for critiquing the ideal community of each period.
