    " Watching War on the Twenty-First Century Stage is the first publication to analyse the ways in which UK theatre has represented, interrogated or contested images of war and terrorism as they are habitually presented in the dominant media. Drawing on theories of spectacle and a wide array of plays and productions-including plays from playwrights such as Caryl Churchill, Mark Ravenhill and Martin Crimp, as well as devised and dance-based theatre-Spectacles of Conflict is a richly provocative engagement with an issue that permeates contemporary culture and consciousness. Residents in wealthy nations such as the UK are invited-at a safe distance, from the comfort of our sofas or our desktops-to spectate, to gawp at, to indulge in images of violence and conflict. Finburgh asks how plays and performances have succeeded, or failed, in negotiating their own status as spectacle in order to make war as it is actually waged, more palpable, in all its devastating vastness. Among the many 21st-century plays and productions analysed are: Headlong Theatre Company's site-specific series of nineteen short plays Decade, Mark Ravenhill's play cycle Shoot/Get Treasure/Repeat, Simon Stephens's Pornography, Lone Twin's Alice Bell, Howard Barker's The Dying of Today, Roy Williams' Days of Significance, Gregory Burke's Black Watch, David Hare's Stuff Happens, Martin Crimp's The City, Nicholas Kent and Richard Norton-Taylor's Justifying War: Scenes from the Hutton Enquiry, Jonathan Lichtenstein's Memory, and DV8's Can We Talk About This? The original and interdisciplinary interrogation offers new ways of analysing representations of war and gives coherence to a large and ever-expanding field by examining and evoking a broad spectrum of theatre and performance pieces, that includes national and fringe productions, text-based theatre and physical performance, and promenade, site-specific and conventional pieces.

    The performance of violence on the stage has played an integral role in French tragedy since its inception. Onstage Violence in Sixteenth-Century French Tragedy is the first book to tell this story. It traces and examines the ethical and poetic stakes of violence, as playwrights were experimenting with the newly discovered genre during decades of religious and civil war (c. 1550-1598). 0The study begins with an overview of the origins of French vernacular tragedy and the complex relationships between violence, performance, ethics, and poetics. The volume focuses on specific plays and analyzes biblical, mythological, historical, and politically topical tragedies-including the stories of Cain and Abel, David and Goliath, Medea, the Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent, the Roman general Regulus, and the assassination of the Duke of Guise in 1588-to show how the multifarious uses of violence on stage shed light on a range of pressing issues during that turbulent time, such as religion, gender, politics, and militantism

    In der Kunst der Moderne kommt den vielfältigen Erfahrungen von physischer und psychischer Gewalt eine zentrale Bedeutung zu. Die sich daraus ergebende Frage nach den Formen der Präsentation von Gewalt und nach den Gründen für das Vergnügen an tragischen Gegenständen stellt sich jedoch bereits in der griechischen Klassik in durchaus vergleichbarer Weise. Die Studien des Bandes, die aus einem Symposion des Sonderforschungsbereichs „Ästhetische Erfahrung im Zeichen der Entgrenzung der Künste“ hervorgegangen sind, untersuchen nach einem Blick auf die an Gewalterfahrungen reiche Geschichte des 5. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. das Spannungsfeld von Gewalt und Ästhetik in den Bereichen von Mythos und Kult, Literatur mit dem Schwerpunkt auf der Tragödie und bildender Kunst.

    This book offers the first attempt at understanding interpersonal violence in ancient Athens. While the archaic desire for revenge persisted into the classical period, it was channeled by the civil discourse of the democracy. Forensic speeches, curse tablets, and comedy display a remarkable openness regarding the definition of violence. But in daily life, Athenians had to draw the line between acceptable and unacceptable behavior. They did so by enacting a discourse on violence in the performance of these genres, during which complex negotiations about the legitimacy of violence took place. Performances such as the staging of trials and comedies ritually defined the meaning of violence and its appropriate application. Speeches and curse tablets not only spoke about violence, but also exacted it in a mediated form, deriving its legitimate use from a democratic principle, the communal decision of the human jurors in the first case and the underworld gods in the second. Since discourse and reality were intertwined and the discourse was ritualized, actual violence might also have been partly ritualized. By still respecting the on-going desire to harm one’s enemy, this partial ritualization of violence helped restrain violence and thus contributed to Athens’ relative stability.

    Why did medieval dramatists weave so many scenes of torture into their plays? Exploring the cultural connections among rhetoric, law, drama, literary creation, and violence, Jody Enders addresses an issue that has long troubled students of the Middle Ages. Theories of rhetoric and law of the time reveal, she points out, that the ideology of torture was a widely accepted means for exploiting such essential elements of the stage and stagecraft as dramatic verisimilitude, pity, fear, and catharsis to fabricate truth. Analyzing the consequences of torture for the history of aesthetics in general and of drama in particular, Enders shows that if the violence embedded in the history of rhetoric is acknowledged, we are better able to understand not only the enduring "theater of cruelty" identified by theorists from Isidore of Seville to Antonin Artaud, but also the continuing modern devotion to the spectacle of pain

    "What do we watch when we watch war? At a time when spectacle and conflict have joined forces via audio-visual technologies in ways that are more powerful than ever, who now manages public perceptions of war and how? Watching War on the Twenty-First Century Stage: Spectacles of Conflict examines how theatre in the UK has staged, debated and challenged the ways in which spectacle is habitually weaponized in times of war. In this original and interdisciplinary interrogation Clare Finburgh provides a richly provocative account of the structuring role that spectacle plays in warfare, engaging with the works of philosopher Guy Debord, cultural theorist Jean Baudrillard, visual studies specialist Marie-José Mondzain, and performance scholar Hans-Thies Lehmann. Throughout her study, Finburgh offers coherence to a large and expanding field of theatrical war representations by analysing a wide spectrum of works, including expressionist drama, documentary theatre, comedy, musical satire and dance theatre: among the productions considered are Nigel Jamieson's Honour Bound, Lola Arias's MINEFIELD, Mark Ravenhill's Shoot/Get Treasure/Repeat, Hayley Squires's Vera Vera Vera, Lone Twin's Alice Bell, Richard Norton-Taylor's verbatim tribunal play Tactical Questioning, and Dennis Kelly's Osama the Hero. Through her analysis, Finburgh demonstrates how features unique to the theatrical art--the construction of a fiction in the presence of the audience--can present possibilities for a more informed engagement with how spectacles of war are produced and circulated."-- By way of an introduction -- An introduction to war and/as spectacle -- Helmets--soldiering as spectacle -- Headscarves--'terrorism' as spectacle -- Hoods--human rights abuses omitted from spectacle -- Conclusiviolenceiolece without violence'

    "This book investigates contemporary British and Irish performances that stage traumatic narratives, histories, acts and encounters. It includes a range of case studies that consider the performative, cultural and political contexts for the staging and reception of sexual violence, terminal illness, environmental damage, institutionalisation and asylum. In particular, it focuses on 'bodies in shadow' in twenty-first century performance: those who are largely written out of or marginalised in dominant twentieth-century patriarchal canons of theatre and history"--Page 4 of cover Introduction: Staging the Unknowable, the Unspeakable, the Unrepresentable -- Violation: On Raftery's Hill (2000) by Marina Carr -- Loss: Colder Than Here (2005) by Laura Wade -- Containment: Laundry (2011), directed by Louise Lowe -- Exile: Sanctuary (2013), directed by Teya Sepinuck -- Conclusion: Relationality

The Performance of Violence -- Conclusion: Vicious Cycles -- Works Cited -- Index Why did medieval dramatists weave so many scenes of torture into their plays? Exploring the cultural connections among rhetoric, law, drama, literary creation, and violence, Jody Enders addresses an issue that has long troubled students of the Middle Ages. Theories of rhetoric and law of the time reveal, she points out, that the ideology of torture was a widely accepted means for exploiting such essential elements of the stage and stagecraft as dramatic verisimilitude, pity, fear, and catharsis to fabricate truth. Analyzing the consequences of torture for the history of aesthetics in general and of drama in particular, Enders shows that if the violence embedded in the history of rhetoric is acknowledged, we are better able to understand not only the enduring "theater of cruelty" identified by theorists from Isidore of Seville to Antonin Artaud, but also the continuing modern devotion to the spectacle of pain

    " Watching War on the Twenty-First Century Stage is the first publication to analyse the ways in which UK theatre has represented, interrogated or contested images of war and terrorism as they are habitually presented in the dominant media. Drawing on theories of spectacle and a wide array of plays and productions-including plays from playwrights such as Caryl Churchill, Mark Ravenhill and Martin Crimp, as well as devised and dance-based theatre-Spectacles of Conflict is a richly provocative engagement with an issue that permeates contemporary culture and consciousness. Residents in wealthy nations such as the UK are invited-at a safe distance, from the comfort of our sofas or our desktops-to spectate, to gawp at, to indulge in images of violence and conflict. Finburgh asks how plays and performances have succeeded, or failed, in negotiating their own status as spectacle in order to make war as it is actually waged, more palpable, in all its devastating vastness. Among the many 21st-century plays and productions analysed are: Headlong Theatre Company's site-specific series of nineteen short plays Decade, Mark Ravenhill's play cycle Shoot/Get Treasure/Repeat, Simon Stephens's Pornography, Lone Twin's Alice Bell, Howard Barker's The Dying of Today, Roy Williams' Days of Significance, Gregory Burke's Black Watch, David Hare's Stuff Happens, Martin Crimp's The City, Nicholas Kent and Richard Norton-Taylor's Justifying War: Scenes from the Hutton Enquiry, Jonathan Lichtenstein's Memory, and DV8's Can We Talk About This? The original and interdisciplinary interrogation offers new ways of analysing representations of war and gives coherence to a large and ever-expanding field by examining and evoking a broad spectrum of theatre and performance pieces, that includes national and fringe productions, text-based theatre and physical performance, and promenade, site-specific and conventional pieces.

    Introduction: doing theater justice -- Back to the medieval future -- Behind the seen: all hell breaks loose -- The final run-through -- Fear of imminence and virtual ethics: staging rape in the Middle Ages -- Killing himself by accident: of broken frames, mimetic blindness, and a dance of death -- Entr'acte: this fallacy which is not one -- The theater and its trouble -- The theatrical contract -- In flagrante theatro -- Theater nullification -- Talk-back: black box and idiot box -- Appendix: original documents in French and Latin

    Over fifty years ago, it became unfashionable-even forbidden-for students of literature to talk about an author's intentions for a given work. In Murder by Accident, Jody Enders boldly resurrects the long-disgraced concept of intentionality, especially as it relates to the theater. Drawing on four fascinating medieval events in which a theatrical performance precipitated deadly consequences, Enders contends that the marginalization of intention in critical discourse is a mirror for the marginalization-and misunderstanding-of theater. Murder by Accident revisits the legal, moral, ethical, and a
