In the mentioned article the problem of the text space of the Italian drama in ХІХ–ХХІ century and its dominant priorities are analyzed. The historical overview of theatrical art in Italy for three centuries, with emphasis on major themes and problems of plays is studied as well. The relevance of the article is due to a lively interest in the contemporary Italian drama and theatrical art in general. The aim of this work is to trace the diachronic development of the text space of the Italian drama in ХІХ–ХХІ century and to define and justify its priority dominants. The prospect of the further research in this subject is the analysis of the future development and prospects of the European drama and the Italian theatrical art in particular.
The research of the works of Italian drama allows the scientist to discover the inner contradictions of life in Italy of different ages,as well as to see the content that is hidden behind the majestic monuments of ancient architecture, to reveal the authentic dramatic historical fate of the cradle of European culture.

Thus, we can distinguish several dominant priorities of the text space of the Italian drama ХІХ–ХХІ century:
- Sharp political discourse, due to the fight with tyranny leaders;
- Social discourse aimed at identifying the most acute problems of society for three centuries;
- Anti-fascist discourse, caused by the struggle with the regime of Benito Mussolini;
- Modern social discourse, which includes the fight against corruption and other vices of society;
- Private theme of the "little man".
Also we can conclude that studying of the works of Italian drama allows to discover the inner contradictions of life Italy of different ages, to see the contents and semantic meanings that are hidden behind the majestic monuments of ancient architecture, reveals the authentic dramatic historical fate of the cradle of European culture.
