Restaging Feminisms -- 2. Reviewing the Drama of Liberal Feminism -- 3. Acting Together: A Chorus of Radical-Feminist Protest -- 4. Towards the Great Moving Left Show? Recitals of Socialist Feminism.This book offers a re-encounter with the tripartite modelling of liberal, radical, and socialist feminisms foundational to forging feminist approaches to theatre. This lucid account of past-present connections to the staging of feminism assesses the legacies and renewals of all three feminist dynamics as they intersect with austerity Britain, the Weinstein watershed, and the #MeToo movement. Feminist politics, concepts, and the role of affect in the making of political attachments inform an approach that values understanding feminism's past as critical to reanimating and restaging socially progressive, feminist futures. The volume includes case studies of productions staged between 2016 and 2019: Caryl Churchill's Escaped Alone; David Greig's version of The Suppliant Women; Morgan Lloyd Malcolm's Emilia; Nina Raine's Consent; Townsend Theatre's We Are The Lions Mr Manager; and Laura Wade's Home, I'm Darling. From an author with a pioneering and thirty-year-long commitment to the study of feminism and British theatre, Restaging Feminisms is for an intergenerational feminist-theatre readership: for those who are discovering relations between feminism and theatre for the first time and those re-encountering the feminist dynamics and their renewed resonance on the contemporary British stage.Palgrave pivot.Performing artsTheaterTheaterHistoryFeminismFeminist theoryTheatre and Performance ArtsContemporary Theatre and PerformanceFeminism and Feminist TheoryPerforming arts.Theater.TheaterHistory.Feminism.Feminist theory.Theatre and Performance Arts.Contemporary Theatre and Performance.Feminism and Feminist Theory.792.082792Aston Elaineauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut175379MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910484047303321Restaging Feminisms2843895UNINA04709nam 22006255 450 991030024440332120251202133344.03-319-24777-810.1007/978-3-319-24777-9(CKB)3710000000596638(EBL)4405863(SSID)ssj0001654092(PQKBManifestationID)16433178(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001654092(PQKBWorkID)14982352(PQKB)10044823(DE-He213)978-3-319-24777-9(MiAaPQ)EBC4405863(PPN)258851422(PPN)19220226X(EXLCZ)99371000000059663820160211d2015 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrMetastability A Potential-Theoretic Approach /by Anton Bovier, Frank den Hollander1st ed. 2015.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2015.1 online resource (578 p.)Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften, A Series of Comprehensive Studies in Mathematics,2196-9701 ;351Description based upon print version of record.3-319-24775-1 Includes bibliographical references and index.Part I Introduction -- 1.Background and motivation -- 2.Aims and scopes -- Part II Markov processes 3.Some basic notions from probability theory -- 4.Markov processes in discrete time -- 5.Markov processes in continuous time -- 6.Large deviations -- 7.Potential theory -- Part III Metastability -- 8.Key definitions and basic properties -- 9.Basic techniques -- Part IV Applications: Diffusions with small noise -- 10.Discrete reversible diffusions -- 11.Diffusion processes with gradient drift -- 12.Stochastic partial differential equations -- Part V Applications: Coarse-graining at positive temperatures -- 13.The Curie-Weiss model -- 14.The Curie-Weiss model with a random magnetic field: discrete distributions -- 15.The Curie-Weiss model with random magnetic field: continuous distributions -- Part VI Applications: Lattice systems in small volumes at low temperatures -- 16.Abstract set-up and metastability in the zero-temperature limit -- 17.Glauber dynamics -- 18.Kawasaki dynamics -- Part VII Applications: Lattice systems in large volumes at low temperatures -- 19.Glauber dynamics -- 20.Kawasaki dynamics -- Part VIII Applications: Lattice systems in small volumes at high densities -- 21.The zero-range process -- Part IX Challenges -- 22.Challenges within metastability -- 23.Challenges beyond metastability -- References.-Glossary -- Index. .Metastability is a wide-spread phenomenon in the dynamics of non-linear systems - physical, chemical, biological or economic - subject to the action of temporal random forces typically referred to as noise. This monograph provides a concise presentation of mathematical approach to metastability based on potential theory of reversible Markov processes. The authors shed new light on the metastability phenomenon as a sequence of visits of the path of the process to different metastable sets, and focus on the precise analysis of the respective hitting probabilities and hitting times of these sets. The theory is illustrated with many examples, ranging from finite-state Markov chains, finite-dimensional diffusions and stochastic partial differential equations, via mean-field dynamics with and without disorder, to stochastic spin-flip and particle-hopping dynamics and probabilistic cellular automata, unveiling the common universal features of these systems with respect to their metastable behaviour. The monograph will serve both as comprehensive introduction and as reference for graduate students and researchers interested in metastability.Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften, A Series of Comprehensive Studies in Mathematics,2196-9701 ;351ProbabilitiesMathematical physicsProbability TheoryMathematical PhysicsTheoretical, Mathematical and Computational PhysicsProbabilities.Mathematical physics.Probability Theory.Mathematical Physics.Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics.510Bovier Antonauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut300719den Hollander Frankauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910300244403321Metastability2533501UNINA
