Jacques Ranciere has been hugely influential in the field of
political philosophy and aesthetics. This edited collection is the
first to investigate the points of contact between the work of
Ranciere and the field of theatre and performance studies. Recent
scholarly works in this discipline have drawn upon concepts from
Ranciere's writing, from theatrocracy to emancipated spectators, to
investigate problems of audience, participation, politics and
aesthetics. Before these concepts and critical tools peel away from
the works through which they emerged, this book seeks a detailed
critical assessment of the works themselves and their implications
for theatre and performance studies. The collection examines the
critical and analytical interventions that have been made to date
and looks forward towards challenges to the future uses of
Ranciere's work in performance and theatre studies. It also
considers a wide range of performance work, from a performance for
the residents of a Victorian workhouse to the activist performances
of Liberate Tate. This collection includes work by ten scholars and
is an essential resource for researchers and academics working in
areas of performance and aesthetics, performance and activism, and
performance and philosophy.
