Sumario:Amadeus (1979, Peter Shaffer) explores the supposed conflict between composers Mozart and Salieri. This play was re-written in several occasions (including its adaptation as the screenplay for a famous film). Those different versions show the persistent construction of an imaginary around writing, a practice which is perceived as dangerous and which, at the same time, regulates the conflictive relation between the characters. From the theoretical and methodological frame of genetic criticism, we approach writing and its representations within Amadeus, taking as objects both the dramatic text and the screenplay.
