Definition from Bedford/St. Martin's:
In drama, a speech directed to the audience that supposedly is not audible to the other characters onstage at the time. When Hamlet first appears onstage, for example, his aside "A little more than kin, and less than kind!" gives the audience a strong sense of his alienation from King Claudius.

apart

Definition from Diccionari de l'enciclopèdia:
Allò que hom diu a part, especialment en una representació teatral.

Example sentence(s):

L'apart, en canvi, es caracteritza per la seua brevetat i la integració dins el diàleg. Se suposa que en l'apart al personatge se li escapa algun comentari que no és escoltat pel seu interlocutor. (...) Dins aquest tipus de monòleg podem destacar el soliloqui o monòleg interior i l'apart. Anàlisi de l'obra teatral: teoria i pràctica - Anàlisi de l'obra teatral: ta. i pràct
El teatre naturalista, amb un llenguatge modern i molt menys imaginatiu, va assolir allò que l'exèrcit clàssic havia predicat sempre sense cap intenció de dur-ho a la pràctica: la imitació de la natura, i de la natura humana, encara que resultés que aquesta natura fos molt mes prosaica i terrenal. Dit altrament: la reproducció de la realitat a petita escala que es va proposar de fer el paradigma naturalista va tenir com a conseqüència, entre d'altres coses (com ara l'aniquilació definitiva del vers com a patró textual o el bandejament d'altres convencions escèniques com el monòleg o l'apart), la inversió d'un enorme esforç en la definició precisa d'uns personatges que semblessin manllevats a la vida, individus determinats per les condicions socials i ambientals i per l'herència genètica però immediatament reconeixibles com a caràcters independents.

GLOOMB : Res de tot això. Quedarà sorpresa quan comprovi que es tracta d’una feina molt agradable. Es farà creus de pensar que es puguin haver inventat històries tan ridícules com les que ha sentit explicar d’aquesta màquina.
