Topics covered include:*the evolution of performance art since the 1960s*the relationship between performance, postmodernism, the politics of identity, and current cultural studies*the recent theoretical developments in the study of performance in the fields of anthropology, psychoanalysis, linguistics, and technology.With a fully updated bibliography and additional glossary of terms, students of performance studies, visual and performing arts or theatre history will welcome this new version of a classic text.
