It features the most exciting work being done at the intersection of theatre and cognitive science, containing both selected scientific studies that have been influential in the field, each introduced and contextualised by the editors, together with related scholarship from the field of theatre and performance that demonstrates some of the applications of the cognitive sciences to actor training, the rehearsal room and the realm of performance more generally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe three sections consider the principal areas of research and application in this interdisciplinary field, starting with a focus on language and meaning-making in which Shakespeare's work and Tom Stoppard's \u003ci\u003eArcadia\u003c\/i\u003e are considered. In the second part which focuses on the body, chapters consider applications for actor and dance training, while the third part focuses on dynamic ecologies, of which the body is a part.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rhonda Blair\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 147259178X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781472591784\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Rhonda Blair","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44065819164927,"sku":"9781472591784","price":47.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3e9bd78c-6c3e-4a64-8e9a-409f36d691c7.jpg?v=1685403683","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/theatre-performance-and-cognition-rhonda-blair-9781472591784","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
