Routledge companion to theatre, performance, and cognitive science.: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Routledge companion to theatre, performance, and cognitive science." wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The Routledge Companion to Theatre, Performance and Cognitive Science integrates key findings from the cognitive sciences (cognitive psychology, neuroscience, evolutionary studies and relevant social sciences) with insights from theatre and performance studies. This rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field dynamically advances critical and theoretical knowledge, as well as driving innovation in practice. The anthology includes 30 specially commissioned chapters, many written by authors who have been at the cutting-edge of research and practice in the field over the last 15 years. These authors offer many empirical answers to four significant questions: How can performances in theatre, dance and other media achieve more emotional and social impact? 0How can we become more adept teachers and learners of performance both within and outside of classrooms? 0What can the cognitive sciences reveal about the nature of drama and human nature in general? 0How can knowledge transfer, from a synthesis of science and performance, assist professionals such as nurses, care-givers, therapists and emergency workers in their jobs? A wide-ranging and authoritative guide, The Routledge Companion to Theatre, Performance and Cognitive Science is an accessible tool for not only students, but practitioners and researchers in the arts and sciences as well.

THE ROUTLEDGE COMPANION TO THEATRE, PERFORMANCE AND COGNITIVE SCIENCE

The Routledge Companion to Theatre, Performance and Cognitive Science integrates key findings from the cognitive sciences (cognitive psychology, neuroscience, evolutionary studies and relevant social sciences) with insights from theatre and performance studies. This rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field dynamically advances critical and theoretical knowledge, as well as driving innovation in practice. The anthology includes 30 specially commissioned chapters, many written by authors who have been at the cutting-edge of research and practice in the field over the last 15 years. These authors offer many empirical answers to four significant questions:

  • How can performances in theatre, dance and other media achieve more emotional and social impact?

  • How can we become more adept teachers and learners of performance both within and outside of classrooms?

  • What can the cognitive sciences reveal about the nature of drama and human nature in general?

  • How can knowledge transfer, from a synthesis of science and performance, assist professionals such as nurses, care-givers, therapists and emergency workers in their jobs?

A wide-ranging and authoritative guide, The Routledge Companion to Theatre, Performance and Cognitive Science is an accessible tool for not only students, but practitioners and researchers in the arts and sciences as well.
