Translocal Performance in Asian Theatre and Film

Autor Iris H. Tuan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 mai 2018
This pivot offers an innovative, trans-local perspective on performance studies in the era of digital technology, considering a range of content from theater to opera, film, dance, and musical theatre. It examines theatre performing arts and film in terms of aesthetics, gender studies, and identity politics, and showcases the value of human accomplishments in theatre and film and their representative artistic works. It also addresses key issues within performance studies, such as gender, class, race, ethnicity, identity, and how minorities portray their ethnicity stories. This book links the trans-national and the trans-local and considers how emerging mobile geographies and new methodologies of interpreting performance in theatre and film reflect the transformations of our understanding of geopolitical time and space.

Recenzii

“Due to the book’s preponderance of case studies and de-emphasis on foundational theories and methodologies, this text feels best suited for graduate students or scholars in related fields looking for specific case studies. Such a rich array of case studies on translocal performance in Taiwan is likely most useful for scholars in performance studies, East Asian studies, and theatre and cinema.” (Annie Katsura Rollins, Asian Theatre Journal, Vol. 36 (2), 2019)
