About The Book:
Since its first publication in 1996, Marvin Carlson's Performance: A Critical Introduction has been regarded as the definitive guide to understanding performance as a theatrical activity. This book offers an unparalleled exploration of the multiple interpretations of performance and its significance across a range of disciplines—from anthropology to linguistics—and how it is deeply connected to fundamental concepts of human society.
In this fully revised and updated third edition, Carlson addresses current themes and theories, including:
-
The growth and significance of racial and ethnic performance
-
The emergence of performance related to age and disability
-
The rise of participatory and immersive theatre
-
The relevance of identity politics and cultural performance in the 21st century
With an updated bibliography and glossary, this edition provides a comprehensive understanding of the evolving landscape of performance studies, offering invaluable insights for students of:
-
Performance studies
-
Theatre history
-
The performing and visual arts
This classic text is a critical resource for anyone looking to explore the significance of performance in both historical and contemporary contexts.
