Аннотация к книге "Re-situating Performance Within The Threshold. Performance practice understood through theories of embodiment"
This work investigates performance as an embodied practice. It draws on theories of embodiment that act as a catalyst for thinking about performance, and thus provide an interdisciplinary framework for conceptualising the body in performance. I explore a discourse that situates performance itself within the liminal, as an in-between condition, as something that does not fit in.

This work investigates performance as an embodied practice. It draws on theories of embodiment that act as a catalyst for thinking about performance, and thus provide an interdisciplinary framework for conceptualising the body in performance. I explore a discourse that situates performance itself within the liminal, as an in-between condition, as something that does not fit in. I reflect on performances, ranging from music to cosmetic surgery, and I highlight the in-between conditions and the marginalised space that in my view posits performance as multivalent, multifaceted and full of potential. This line of enquiry is informed by my view of the body as a site of change, discord and ambiguity; what one can refer to as the threshold condition, or what Victor Turner calls the “state of betwixt and between”. I take the body as a starting point for this discussion, as I consider the body as a vanguard to providing a different view to the majority of current music and performance writings. I subscribe to the view that the multi-faceted and, at times, highly controversial debate that has been applied to the body, has not been equivalently explored in the discussion of performance.

Шведский писатель, не признанный в своей стране, эмигрирует в Германию. Там ему предлагают написать брошюру о литературном климате его отечества. Писатель отвечает на письмо, и вскоре оправданная и справедливая обида на шведских критиков переходит в неоправданную и несправедливую ненависть ко всей стране. Герой начинает подозревать, что весь мир состоит в заговоре против него.
