The author revisits his previous papers on dramatology published in 2009, 2011, and 2015, adding the results of new research. The additions are ideas about dramatic action by philosophers William James and John Dewey and literary theorist Kenneth Burke. There is a new discussion of the relation between dramatology and narratology. The approach is a retrospective application of dramatization to Freud’s method in analyzing the famous cases of Dora and Schreber. A new finding is dramatization in DSM-5 diagnoses. Another new interest is applying dramatology to Freud’s mass psychology and world-wide events as dramas of history.
