Performance Phenomenology : To The Thing Itself, Hardback Book

Performance Phenomenology : To The Thing Itself Hardback

Edited by Stuart Grant, Jodie McNeilly-Renaudie, Matthew Wagner

Part of the Performance Philosophy series

Hardback

Description

This collection of essays addresses emergent trends in the meeting of the disciplines of phenomenology and performance.

It brings together major scholars in the field, dealing with phenomenological approaches to dance, theatre, performance, embodiment, audience, and everyday performance of self.

It argues that despite the wide variety of philosophical, ontological, epistemological, historical and methodological differences across the field of phenomenology, certain tendencies and impulses are required for an investigation to stand as truly phenomenological.

These include: description of experience; a move towards fundamental conditions or underlying essences; and an examination of taken-for-granted presuppositions.

The book is aimed at scholars and practitioners of performance looking to deepen their understanding of phenomenological concepts and methods, and philosophers concerned with issues of embodiment, performativity and enaction.
