Theatre as an art form has often been associated with notions of presence. The ?live? immediacy of the actor, the unmediated unfolding of dramatic action and the ?energy? generated through an actor-audience relationship are among the ideas frequently used to explain theatrical experience ? and all are underpinned by some understanding of ?presence.? Precisely what is meant by presence in the theatre is part of what Presence in Play sets out to explain. While this work is rooted in twentieth century theatre and performance since modernism, the author draws on a range of historical and theoretical material. Encompassing ideas from semiotics and phenomenology, Presence in Play puts forward a framework for thinking about presence in theatre, enriched by poststructuralist theory, forcefully arguing in favour of ?presence? as a key concept for theatre studies today. 410 0$aConsciousness, literature & the arts ;$v12. 606 $aTheater$xPhilosophy 606 $aTheater$xPsychological aspects 606 $aTheater$xSemiotics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTheater$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aTheater$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aTheater$xSemiotics. 676 $a792.013 700 $aPower$b Cormac$0942826 712 02$aEbooks Corporation. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452297003321 996 $aPresence in play$92127589 997 $aUNINA
