Description

Explore the complex history and cultural impact of hysteria through this unique collection by Anna Furse. Published by Routledge, Performing Nerves offers a deep look into a subject that has seen growing academic interest from feminist theorists, sociologists, and medical historians. This work bridges the gap between artistic and academic practice. By interweaving performance texts with scholarly essays, the book examines the hysteric as a subject often marginalized by patriarchal forces. It provides a lens to view the distress and disablement associated with this condition through various disciplines, including cultural studies, anthropology, and psychology. Whether you are a student of performing arts, a literary scholar, or a researcher in medical history, this book provides a multifaceted perspective on how hysteria has been construed and performed. It is an essential resource for understanding the intersection of art, gender, and social history.
