Description

"Theatre and Ghosts brings theatre and performance history into dialogue with the flourishing field of spectrality studies. The contributors include internationally renowned theatre scholars who have shaped the study of cultural memory. Essays shed new light on spectral economies, geo-politics and histories of acting; they span from adaptations of the Gothic to the operations and technologies of the modern and new supernatural, addressing topics such as ghost-seeing, horror shows, mediums, revenants, haunted sites, spiritual worlds and acting as an incarnation of the dead"--Page [4] of cover.
