The Play and the ThingA Phenomenology of Shakespearean Theatre\nAuthor(s): Matthew D. Wagner\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Edinburgh University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Edinburgh University Press\nISBN-13: 9781474410861, 978-1474410861\nSynopsis\nShakespeares Hamlet insisted that the plays the thing; Edmund Husserls philosophy advised us to (re)turn our attention back to the things themselves! How might a careful, detailed exploration of the basic things of Shakespearean theatre illuminate his plays in performance? Taking up this question, The Play and the Thing offers the first book-length phenomenological study of Shakespearean stage craft, from the ground up. The book approaches the study of Shakespearean theatre by attending to the ways in which three of those basic things Bodies, Objects, and Spaces might appear to perception in the act of performance. As such, it demonstrates how the principal, if at times divergent, strands of phenomenological enquiry can offer insigh.
