Theory for Theatre Studies: Bodies

Theory for Theatre Studies: Bodies

How does theatre shape the body and perceptions of it? How do bodies on stage challenge audience assumptions about material evidence and the truth? Theory for Theatre Studies: Bodies responds to these questions by examining how theatre participates in and informs theories of the body in performance, race, queer, disability, trans, gender, and new media studies.Throughout the 20th century, theories of the body have shifted from understanding the body as irrefutable material evidence of race, sex, and gender, to a social construction constituted in language. In the same period, theatre has struggled with representing ideas through live bodies while calling into question assumptions about the body.This volume demonstrates how theatre contributes to understanding the historical, contemporary and burgeoning theories of the body. It explores how theories of the body inform debates about labor conditions and spatial configurations. Theatre allows performers to shift an audience’s understandings of the shape of the bodies on stage, possibly producing a reflexive dynamic for consideration of bodies offstage as well. In addition, casting choices in the theatre, most recently and popularly in Hamilton, question how certain bodies are “cast” in social, historical, and philosophical roles. Through an analysis of contemporary case studies, including The Balcony, Angels in America, and Father Comes Home from the Wars, this volume examines how the theatre theorizes bodies. Online resources are also available to accompany this book.

This book explores Antonio Muñoz Molina's creation of compelling narratives about Spain's immediate past by engaging in a dynamic dialogue with popular culture subgenres and the media. The author asserts that popular culture functions in Muñoz Molina's novels as provider of a series of strategies that represent in the text aspects of Francoism and the Transition that, because of their relevance, are part of the structure of feeling of those periods. The study focuses on the role of popular music, film, photography, the thriller, the romance novel as well as the radio and other gadgets of modern technology in Muñoz Molina's Novels. The Gaze on the Past argues that through the incorporation of popular culture in texts, Muñoz Molina undertakes a deliberate and intense reflection on memory and on the creation of historical moments, highlighting their desire to be heard.

Self-Made: How to Win by Investing in Yourself is a great book that provides multiple ways you can generate cash flow that will fund your IRA account or your life, if you choose to not use an IRA. This book is broken down into five individual chapters that help you get an understanding of finance and financial products in the market.Chapter One is dedicated to giving you a basic understanding of the principles of finance. These five principles are like a guide to the rest of the book and open your eyes to being a boss instead of a consumer.Chapter Two goes into the players in the financial markets who either provide financing or make the markets. You get to see the big institutional players such as insurance companies, banks, and others that are involved on Wall Street and Main Street.Chapter Three starts the meat and potatoes portion of the book, where you are introduced to the self-directed IRA and how you can benefit from converting to one. I give you information on the difference between a traditional IRA, Roth IRA, and one where you control what you purchase (self-directed IRA). This chapter is the whole basis for the rest of the book.Chapter Four is all about various products and ways you can generate cash flow for your account or yourself, if you choose. I go over various ways you can get into real estate, products such as annuities, insurance, life settlements, and so much more. This chapter is about creating a long-term strategy and describes some short-term products with varying risks; it is also the longest portion of the book as it's about chess, not checkers.Chapter Five ends with ways you can protect your newfound wealth and pass it on if you're looking to create generational wealth. I give you information in creating trusts, having insurance, and even ways to keep your ex from getting a check if you're divorced. All of the other chapters in this book are packed with great information for anyone seeking to get out of the rat-race, and I suggest you read and tell a friend to tell a friend.
