Dramatization, the process of adapting written stories and novels into theatrical or audiovisual forms, has been a prominent artistic and educational practice for centuries. This scientific article delves into the fascinating world of dramatization, aiming to examine its impact on narrative engagement and emotional connection among audiences. We explore the psychological and cognitive aspects of this adaptation process and investigate how dramatization influences individuals' perceptions of characters, themes, and overall storytelling. Understanding the effects of dramatization can shed light on its potential benefits as a means of enhancing literary experiences and encouraging greater interest in literature and the arts.
