This exciting new work argues for the exploration of drama as a
conduit to deep emotional learning that has the ability to change
the somatic identity of performers and audiences alike. Rokotnitz
suggests that the preference for reciprocity exhibited by human
physiological systems also extends into psychological and cognitive
processes. Modeling her epistemological inquiry upon the paradigms
instantiated by our biological architecture, she argues that
effective knowledge acquisition and interpersonal communication
rely on the ability to learn from and to trust in our bodies.
Focusing on four plays by William Shakespeare, Tom Stoppard,
Timberlake Wertenbaker, and Moises Kaufman, each chapter of the
book considers a different dramatic genre, historical period,
philosophical context, and performance strategy, and traces in each
the crucial and defining influence of bodily presence in
establishing trust relations and moral accountability.
