Description

Explore the boundaries between perception and reality with Performing Fantasy and Reality in Contemporary Culture. Part of the Routledge Advances in Sociology series, this book addresses a significant gap in academic research by examining how fantasy functions in everyday life. While fantasy is deeply connected to our identities, communities, and desires, it often lacks a formal definition within sociological study. This work uses a performance theory perspective to analyze how we engage with non-real elements. Through multidisciplinary literature and specialized research, the text explores the connection between fantasy and the human experience. By looking at live action role-playing games, the author presents ethnographic and art-based research to show how fantasy acts as a bodily and negotiated phenomenon. This book provides a deep look at how individuals engage with their surroundings through the lens of performance and social meaning.
