Description

This book offers new, rigorous ways to analyze communication and culture through performance. It offers cutting edge readings of everyday life, space, history, and intersections of all three, using a critical performance-based approach. This book makes three contributions: it familiarizes readers with the core elements and commitments of performance-based analysis; it links performance-based analysis to theoretical and analytical perspectives in communication and cultural studies; it provides engaging examples of how to use performance as a critical tool to open up communication and culture.

First Sentence

Everyday life is everywhere and nowhere: the cellular mechanics of identity and culture so ubiquitous as to be invisible.
