Arguing that existing modernisation theories have been
unnecessarily one-sided, Hedwig Fraunhofer offers a rewriting of
modernity that cuts across binary methodologies - nature and
culture, mind and matter, epistemology and ontology, critique and
affirmative writing, dramatic and postdramatic theatre. She
specifically reworks the biopolitical exclusions that mark modern
western epistemology, leading up to modernity's totalitarian crisis
point. Fraunhofer reveals the performativity of theatre in its
double sense - as theatrical production and as the intra-activity
of a dynamic system of multiple relations between human and
more-than-human actors, energies and affects. In modern theatre,
public and private, human and more-than-human, materiality and
meaning collapse in a common life.
