Performance and Modernity. Enacting Change on the Globalizing Stage, Hardback

This book demonstrates how the experience of change in the modern period was first registered in bodily metaphors that took shape on stage. In new styles of performance-acting, dance, music, pageantry, avant-garde provocations, film and video-it finds fresh evidence for how modernity has been understood and lived.
