Théâtres d'Asie à l'oeuvre
From India to China, “theatre” refers to a range of phenomena of extraordinary richness. This volume treats three principal themes. The first is the circulation of traditions relative to these performances, particularly the exchanges operat-ing between literary and popular cultures. Processes of borrowing, acculturation, and vernacularisation are at the centre of this analy-sis. The second theme covers forms and means of expression, techniques of the actor, to music and scenography. The third theme concerns the role of the political context and power relations. These theatrical expressions being capable of taking on ritual, religious, political or economic functions, States and ethnic groups infuse them with elements expressive of localidentity. The contributions brought together here share an anthropological approach to Asian theatres: a fundamentally historical anthropology, cogni-zant of religious and aesthetic dimensions of per-formance, and attentive to the interplay of patron, audience and actor.
