Drawing on theories of intermediality, Liveness on Stage explores how performances that incorporate film or video self-reflexively stage and challenge their own liveness by contrasting or approximating live and mediatised action. To illustrate this, the monograph investigates key aspects such as 'ephemerality', 'co-presence', 'unpredictability', 'interaction' and 'realistic representation' and highlights their significance for re-evaluating received notions of liveness. The analysis is based on productions by Gob Squad, Forkbeard Fantasy, Station House Opera, Proto-type Theater, Tim Etchells and Mary Oliver. In their playful approaches these practitioners predominantly present such media combination as a means of cross-fertilisation rather than as an antagonism between liveness and mediatisation. Combining an original theoretical approach with an in-depth analysis of the selected productions, this study will appeal to scholars and practitioners of theatre and performance as well as to those researching intermedial phenomena.CDE studies ;Volume 25.TheaterGreat BritainHistory21st centuryTheaterTechnological innovationsGreat BritainExperimental theaterGreat BritainFilm and Video.Intermediality.Theatre and Performance.Theatre.TheaterHistoryTheaterTechnological innovationsExperimental theater792.0941/09051HN 1274rvkGeorgi Claudia1979-1567266MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787187003321Liveness on stage3838544UNINA02959oam 2200625I 450 991095750610332120251116155529.01-136-33763-60-203-04556-41-283-88499-21-136-33756-310.4324/9780203045565 (CKB)2550000000710268(EBL)1099282(OCoLC)823389372(SSID)ssj0000783964(PQKBManifestationID)11431656(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000783964(PQKBWorkID)10762681(PQKB)11144765(MiAaPQ)EBC1099282(Au-PeEL)EBL1099282(CaPaEBR)ebr10639982(CaONFJC)MIL419749(OCoLC)823163770(FINmELB)ELB137078(EXLCZ)99255000000071026820180331d2001 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrThe philosophy of utopia /editor, Barbara Goodwin1st ed.London ;Portland, Or. :Frank Cass,2001.1 online resource (271 p.)This group of studies first appeared in a special issue on 'The philosophy of utopia' of Critical review of international social and political philosophy 3/2&3 (summer/autumn 2000)--T.p. verso.0-7146-8169-5 0-7146-5153-2 Includes bibliographical references and index.Cover; THE PHILOSOPHY OF UTOPIA; Title Page; Copyright Page; Table of Contents; Introduction; 'Nothing is, but what is not': Utopias as Practical Political Philosophy; For Utopia: The (Limits of the) Utopian Function in Late Capitalist Society; The Eternal Present of Utopianism; Isaiah Berlin, William Morris, and the Politics of Utopia; Utopianism and National Identity; The Romanian Utopia: The Role of the Intelligentsia in the Communist Implementation of a New Human Paradigm; The Treatment of the 'Woman Question' in Radical Utopian Political Thought; Green Utopias of Self and OtherThe Illusion of Permanence: Work Motivation and Membership Turnover at Twin Oaks CommunityScientific Utopianism in Francis Bacon and H.G.
