Summary:"In this brilliant book Marco De Marinis develops a systematic definition of performance in terms of text, a new theoretical object, which he sees as the result of treating theatrical performance as a material object, a mixture of old and new, of the "already said" and the "not yet said." This permits him to view performance as an original combination within a textual structure of pre-existing codes and specific codes that are created anew with each performance and thus recognizable only by abduction."--Jacket

Description
Summary:<p>"The book... succeeds at refining elements in the problem that semiotics and theater represent to and for one another." Choice<p>"The Semiotics of Performance surprisingly retains its revelatory freshness, and actually opens up areas of reseach that could very well supply new incentives for further probing into what semiotics can offer to the study of theatre."
