La cavità teatrale Tekijä: Richard Schechner
Se tra i maggiori esponenti dell'avanguardia artistica e teatrale americana espongono i motivi estetici, architettonici, sociali, psicologici e 2sensoriali" della rivolta contro princìpi cui per seco0li ha obbedito al teatro. In un saggio che sta mettendo a rumore il mondo teatrale di qua e di là dell'oceano (" sei assiomi sull'Environmental Theatre") Richard Schechner enuncia i postulati di una rivoluzione copernicana nel rapporto tra arte e realtà.
I'm so glad I had a professor to discuss this with...
Few have had quite as much impact in the world of theatre production as Richard Schechner. For more than four decades his work has challenged conventional definitions of theatre, ritual and performance. When this seminal collection first appeared, Schechner’s approach was not only novel, it was revolutionary: drama is not just something that occurs on stage, but something that happens in everyday life, full of meaning, and on many different levels.
In this second edition, the author opens with a discussion of important developments in the discipline. His closing chapter, 'Global and Intercultural Performance', is completely rewritten in light of the post-9/11 world. Fully revised chapters with new examples, biographies and source material provide a lively, easily accessible overview of the full range of performance for undergraduates at all levels in performance studies, theatre, performing arts and cultural studies. Among the topics discussed are the performing arts and popular entertainments, rituals, play and games as well as the performances of everyday life. Supporting examples and ideas are drawn from the social sciences, performing arts, post-structuralism, ritual theory, ethology, philosophy and aesthetics.… (lisätietoja)
