Description

Explore the deep connection between seventeenth-century French theater and political theory in this academic study by Routledge. This book examines how formal changes in theatrical style and staging during the period of 1630-1660 reflected broader shifts in government and neoclassicism. By looking at specific theatrical elements, such as the removal of violence from the stage, the text demonstrates how French stylistic shifts utilized Italian political writing to address complex ideas regarding action, law, and temporality. This study offers a unique perspective on how the theater adopted political vocabularies and concerns to shape its identity. Ideal for scholars and students of performing arts history, this work engages with modern thinking on performance and canon formation. It provides a detailed look at how the stage functioned as a space for negotiating the relationship between art and the state.
