An Introduction to the Analysis, Interpretation, and Theory of the Performing Arts

Beschreibung

"Drawing on semiotic developments of the past five decades, this book introduces students to the semiotic analysis of live performances and provides them with a clear method for untangling the multimodal complexity of performance from the spectator's point of view. It explores a broad range of performance types from across different cultures, including music, opera, ballet, theatre, circus, mime, improvisation, and immersion, and is accompanied by a companion website featuring recorded extracts from live performances"--
