Book Description
Pourquoi mourir? Comment survivre? De la naissance a la mort, c'est par le corps, c'est dans l'habitacle du corps que l'homme se situe dand l'unvers et fair l'expereince de ses congeneres. A l'occasion des rite de passage notamemnt, c'est par le coprps que la societe revendique l'individu comme sien, at c'est sure son corps qu'elle inscrit cette appartenance. Mais nulle branche de la famille humaine ne s'est jamais resignee aux limites naturelles que le corps assignait aux experiences vecues ou aux transformations subies par sa matiere jusqu'a la mort incluse. Toujours at partout on a imagine une ou plusieurs entites qui asurent la continuite de la personne a travers le temps et en illuminent le traits: ame, ombre, double, esprit, etc. Les noms variet, le metaphores aussi. Comment de telles entites accompagnent le corps, le forifient, s'en detachent ou se dressent contre lui, c'est ce que chaque culture a codifie a sa maniere par des pratiques que nous nommons par exemple- epreuves initiatiques, actes de sorcellerie, possession, ou cannibalisme. Tant at si bien que le corps agresse, possed, supplicie, cannibalise, devient en retour un moyen prvilegie d'analyser les cultures. Aux ethnologues at aux historiens de le mettre en oeuvre et de l'ecouter. Neuf d'entre eux se sont attaches a le faire dans des textes nourris de recherches menees en Asie, en Amerique du Sud, en Afrique at en Oceanie.
Minority Theatre on the Global Stage

Pages : 430
Book Description
All over the world, in the most varied contexts, contemporary theatre is a rich source for increasing the visibility of communities generally perceived by others as minorities, or those who see themselves as such. Whether of a linguistic, ethnic, political, social, cultural or sexual nature, the claims of minorities enjoy a privileged medium in theatre. Perhaps it is because theatre itself is linked to the notions of centre and periphery, conformism and marginality, domination and subjugation – notions that minority theatre constantly examines by staging them – that it is so sensitive to the issues of troubled and conflicted identity and able to give them a universal resonance. Among the questions raised by this volume, is that of the relationship between the particular and the more general aims of this type of theatre. How is it possible to speak to everyone, or at least to the majority, when one is representing the voice of the few? Beyond such considerations, urgent critical examination of the function and aims of minority theatre is needed. To what kind of public is such drama addressed? Does it have an exemplary nature? How is it possible to avoid the pitfalls and the dead end of ghettoization? Certain types of audience-specific theatre are examined in this context, as, for example, theatre as therapy, theatre as an educational tool, and gay theatre. Particular attention is paid to the claims of minorities within culturally and economically dominant western countries. These are some of the avenues explored by this volume which aims to answer fundamental questions such as: What is minority theatre and why does theatre, a supposedly bourgeois, if not to say elitist, art form, have such affinity with the margins? What if, particularly in contemporary society, the theatre as a form, were merely playing out its fundamentally marginal status? The authors of these essays show how different forms of minority theatre can challenge cultural consensus and homogenization, while also aspiring to universality. They also address the central question of the place and status of apparently marginal forms of theatre in the context of globalization and in doing so re-examine theatre itself as a genre. Not only do they illustrate how minority theatre can challenge the dominant paradigms that govern society, but they also suggest their own more flexible and challenging frameworks for theatrical activity.
