Where is the verb?
Hi,
What is the verb in the second sentence?
Where the satirical form does not have tragedy as its counterpart, the whole thing is transformed into clowning. Tragedy as drama of hunger, as terror and refusal of violence in all senses, the problem of dignity and of the quality of life, the problem of the relationship with death, the problem of love, of sexuality_ this is the real catalyst of comic satire.

Nesa

Hello and thank you.
Can you help me with this part?
A theatre, then, to awaken consciences, not to amuse them, to stimulate doubts and discussion, not to perpetrate commonplaces...
I couldn't get the meaning.

Nesa,
I think that the first thing most native speakers would notice is that you have NOT given us a sentence! There is no verb!
With your permission, may I try to rewrite it so that it becomes a sentence?
The theater, then, is a place to awaken consciences, not to amuse them; to stimulate doubts and discussion, not to perpetrate commonplaces.
