This book takes a different approach: The contributors examine the history of performance from the perspective of theatre spaces and stage technologies. Art, literature, religion, law, urbanism, architecture, technology - this interdisciplinary book discusses how these fields relate to theatre and performance. Geographically, it covers a significant portion of the globe; chronologically, it ranges from ancient times to the present. This book provides a timely attempt to combine cultural and global history.Theater (Frankfurt am Main, Germany) ;Volume 146.Theatre; Performance; Stage; Technology; History; History of Theatre; Theatre Studies;History of Theater.History.Performance.Stage.Technology.Theater Studies.Theatre; Performance; Stage; Technology; History; History of Theatre; Theatre Studies;153.9Nawata YujiChuo University Tokyo, JapanedtDethlefs Hans JoachimChuo University Tokyo, JapanedtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996582050903316Performance Spaces and Stage Technologies4128421UNISA
