The book includes six parts, the writer Richard N.K. on UNESCO discusses his view of the new theater, as UNESCO never saw that the word realistic theater expresses anything in life as drama is an artistic means controlled by its own laws, describing the moment in which the experience moves from life To theater, as it involves a radical change and that the backward elements of reality are nothing but the product of an ingenious illusion.
In the second part of the book, the author talks about the UNESCO theory in the world of absolute congruence, speaking of his opinion in which he said
Art, whose logic is supposed to be merely a transient product of the logic of science and sport, cannot have a higher ambition than depicting events and topics as they exist in the outside world, through an artistic medium that has its own laws.
The third part dealt with UNESCO's theory in preventing the deification of vulgarity, as it strips the language and strips it of its mental content, so that it remains a means of transmitting the dramatic effect that is not inherent in the words themselves, explaining that creating a part of the drama outside the language itself is adding a new dimension to the theater.
The emptiness at the heart of things is the title of the fourth part of the book, where it deals with a UNESCO view of the isolation of man, which was not caused by the collapse of language, but rather he attributed the causes to the conditions of man himself, which contributed mainly to his isolation.
Regarding the fifth part, which was entitled Utopia and what follows, the author mentioned the position of some writers on UNESCO, where some considered him a saint and others as a leftist, so that his doctrine of “blatant non-commitment” took on many different interpretations, including the attempt to disavow politics.
In conclusion, the book deals with the search for meaning in artistic works, describing the difficulty of having or proposing a law on the work of art, as it described the artwork as not translatable.
