Exploring a range of plays, forms, and contexts of theatre production, .Representing the Rural. celebrates the lively engagement with rurality on English stages since 2000, constituting the first full study of theatrical representations of rural life. Interdisciplinary in its approach, this book draws on political philosophy and cultural geography in its definitions of rurality and Englishness, and works with key theoretical concepts such as nostalgia and ethnonationalism. Covering a range of perspectives from the country garden in Mike Bartlett’s .Albion .to agricultural labour in Nell Leyshon’s .The Farm., the enclosure acts in D.C. Moore’s .Common. to Black rural history in Testament’s .Black Men Walking., the book shows how theatre and performance can open up different ways of reading rural geographies, histories, and lives. While .Representing the Rural. is aimed at students and researchers of theatre and performance, its interdisciplinary scope means that it has wider appeal to other disciplines in the arts and humanities, including geography, politics, and history. . | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | Rural; England; Englishness; Place; Nostalgia; Contemporary Theatre; Political Theatre; Landscape; Community | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-26478-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-26480-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-26478-8 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
