Summary/Abstract: The text Christmas baroque spectacle in cyberspace applies to update the tradition of Christmas baroque spectacle so-called wertep in Milorad Pavic’s dramas Za uvek i dan više and Stakleni puž. The use of former traditional spectacle structure is motivated by author’s conceptions. Which apply to Serbian historioliterary process, especially 17th and 18th century rootes of modern Serbian culture. The interactive dramas structure becomes the context of the spectacle transposition of baroque origins. The structure of interactive drama was created by the author in consequence of aware adaptation preciseal and proper mechanisms to computer transmission into the ground of literature. The idea of interactive creation is result from Pavic’s afterthoughts over psychodynamic oral communication, informative digital technology and their influence on literary text organization strategys and theatre plays. The scens of wertep aren’t just the effect of basic folklorization but they are the effect of a formal experiment based on neobaroque idea.
