Description

Explore the deep connections between human feeling and identity in Performing Emotions by Peta Tait. Published by Routledge, this scholarly work examines how performing emotions in realist drama serves as a way to perform gender identity. The text explores how emotions are phenomena performed by bodies that carry specific cultural identities, which in turn create unique cultural spaces of emotion. This study brings together diverse academic perspectives, integrating scholarship on realist drama and theatre with approaches to acting. By combining interdisciplinary theories of emotion, phenomenology, and gender theory, Tait provides a comprehensive look at the mechanics of performance. The book includes specific chapters dedicated to masculinity and femininity, offering a detailed investigation into social beliefs about emotion through the lens of Chekhov's four major plays and Stanislavski's theatre methods. It is an essential resource for students and scholars of theatre history, criticism, and gender studies.
