Description

Explore the complex relationship between Surrealism and the performing arts with Ludics in Surrealist Theatre and Beyond. Published by Routledge as part of the Studies in Surrealism series, this book addresses the fundamental question of whether Surrealist theatre truly exists as a distinct medium. While much of the Surrealist movement is celebrated through poetry and painting, this study focuses on the often misunderstood realm of theatre. By applying the lens of ludics-a poetics of play and games-the text examines how Surrealist works blur the lines between playful and serious intentions. Vassiliki Rapti provides a deep academic investigation that seeks to demystify Andre Breton's controversial views on the stage. This book offers a fresh perspective for students and scholars of arts and photography, providing a new way to understand how games and play define the boundaries of Surrealist expression.
