Identifier: CC-28249-29420
Scope and Contents

This book consists of a collection of essays in its first half written with a highly academic approach to performance. Its second half features experimental writing and layout. Thus, it begins with an essay by Campbell Tatham, " Mythology and Postmodern Fictions: Magic is Afoot," a work characterized as a "verbal" performance by the editors. It is printed with a typewriter font and includes several shaped texts. Another "verbal" performance using the same approach along with concrete poems is found in the essay contributed by Raymond Federman, "Voices within Voices." Finally, Ihab Hassan provides an experimental drama in his essay, "Prometheus as Performer: Toward a Posthumanist Culture?" -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
