(toward) a phenomenology of acting

Autor Phillip Zarrilli
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 oct 2019

The rise and rise of cognitive science and its impact on theatre studies has been significant over the last decade. Now the crossover between 'cog sci' and phenomenology is getting increased attention, but there are few scholars able to explore both fields and their relation to acting theory, and even fewer who can do so with reference to a lifetime of actual practice. Phillip Zarrilli is the leading scholar in the phenomenology of acting. This new book is a more direct engagement with phenomenology and cognitive science, proposing a new type of fieldwork to explore the structures of experience in theatrical performance.

Recenzii

"Zarrilli’s book is a major contribution to the effort to create a circulation between science, art, and human experience."
Evan Thompson, Professor of Philosophy, University of British Columbia & Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada
"Written with great poetic style and evocativeness, this impressive tome takes Zarrilli’s already impactful contribution to contemporary acting many steps further. It’s destined to become a twenty-first-century classic."
Bella Merlin, Actor, Professor of Acting (University of California at Riverside), Author
"…takes the reader on a journey between disciplines, repositioning both processes of acting and the languages we use to reflect on and lead actor training…a far reaching and thrilling journey into the embodied processes of acting which will liberate the actor."
Ian Morgan, Performer and Course Leader MA Theatre LAB (RADA)
