Classicalism, in the arts, refers generally to the high regard for classical antiquity, as setting standards for taste which a classicist tries to emulate. Classicalism is commonly contrasted by owning romanticism; the art of classicalism usually tries to exist as formal, restrained, & Apollonian (nothing in excess) like than Dionysiac (excess), in Friedrich Nietzsche's opposition. Within can too refer to the more periods of classicalism (understand sidebar).
In the theatre
Classicalism in the theatre was developed by 17th century French playwrights from what it estimated to become a system of Greek classical theatre, including the Classical unities of time, place & action.
Unity of instance referred to the want for the entire action of the play to require place inside a invented Xxiv-hour period
Unity of place intended that a action should unfold around one location
Unity of action intended that a play should become constructed around one 'plot-line', like the tragical romance or even the conflict between honour and duty.
Classicists did non approve of Shakespeare, who constantly broke these system.
Examples of classicist dramatist:
Pierre Corneille
Jean Racine
Victor Hugo was among the 1st French dramatist to break these conventions.
