Archaeologies of Presence is a brilliant exploration of how the
performance of presence can be understood through the relationships
between performance theory and archaeological thinking. Drawing
together carefully commissioned contributions by leading
international scholars and artists, this radical new work poses a
number of essential questions: What are the principle signifiers of
theatrical presence? How is presence achieved through theatrical
performance? What makes a memory come alive and live again? How is
presence connected with identity? Is presence synonymous with
'being in the moment'? What is the nature of the 'co-presence' of
audience and performer? Where does performance practice end and its
documentation begin? Co-edited by performance specialists Gabriella
Giannachi and Nick Kaye, and archaeologist Michael Shanks,
Archaeologies of Presence represents an innovative and rewarding
feat of interdisciplinary scholarship.
