| Synopsis: |
In this brilliant book, Marco De Marinis develops a systematic definition of performance in terms of text, a new theoretical object, which he sees as the result of treating theatrical performance as a material object, a mixture of old and new, of the "already said" and the "not yet said." This permits him to view performance as an original combination within a textual structure of pre-existing codes and specific codes that are created anew with each performance and this recongizable only be abduction. |
