Mark Fortier

Theory/Theatre (eBook, PDF)

An Introduction

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

A truly classic text now in its third edition, theory/theatre provides a unique, engaging introduction to literary theory as it relates to theatre and performance. It examines current theoretical approaches clearly and accessibly, from semiotics and poststructuralism through cultural materialism, postcolonial studies and feminist theory. In this fully revised new edition, Mark Fortier particularly expands and updates sections on queer theory, postmarxist theory, technology and virtuality, and post-colonialism and race. Fortier also provides a brand new epilogue on cognitive science, and a revised glossary. The book remains the most accessible, useful and reliable study of its kind.
