This study presents a conceptual history of body-language in four
different areas of the human sciences: 1. the system of rhetoric,
2. the doctrines of practical philosophy and social behaviour, 3.
theories explaining the interaction of soul and body
(anthropology), and finally, pragmatic approaches to theatrical
acting. The focus of this interdisciplinary study is the connection
between the language of gesture and its psychological foundations
in the nascent discipline of anthropology. This investigation aims
at the foundation of a hermeneutics of body-language, which
provides a new understanding of drama. From this perspective, plays
of Gerstenberg, Iffland, Klinger, Kotzebue, Lessing and Schiller
are interpreted not simply as texts, but in the context of
theatrical representation and the 'second language' of man, that of
mime and gesture.
