Synopsis "Theatrical Speech Acts: Performing Language: Politics, Translations, Embodiments "

Theatrical Speech Acts: Performing Language explores the significance and impact of words in performance, probing how language functions in theatrical scenarios, what it can achieve under particular conditions, and what kinds of problems may arise as a result.Presenting case studies from around the globe--spanning Argentina, Egypt, Germany, India, Indonesia, Korea, Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda, Thailand, the UK and the US--the authors explore key issues related to theatrical speech acts, such as (post)colonial language politics; histories, practices and theories of translation for/in performance; as well as practices and processes of embodiment. With scholars from different cultural and disciplinary backgrounds examining theatrical speech acts--their preconditions, their cultural and bodily dimensions as well as their manifold political effects--the book introduces readers to a crucial linguistic dimension of historical and contemporary processes of interweaving performance cultures.Ideal for drama, theater, performance, and translation scholars worldwide, Theatrical Speech Acts opens up a unique perspective on the transformative power of language in performance.
