Podrobný výpis o publikaci

This essayistic exploration of the context of radical thinking and theatre dramaturgy attempts to answer the question of how to return social and political relevance to this field in a world of individualized "nomads" competing for attention in the artistic marketplace. Through a dialogue with the thought of philosopher Martin Buber and anarchist Gustav Landauer, the author journeys to the roots of modern dramatic art as a socially transformative program seeking to simultaneously unite and liberate man, community, and nature. He seeks the "spiritual foundations of theatrical anarchism", a radical critique of power and socio-economic conditions. The book thus attempts to recover the meaning of dramaturgy as a modern profession rooted in the structures of experience of its time, but also in deeper ecological contexts, and to show why theatre is irreplaceable even in a multimedia, networked age. Radical Dramaturgy is intended for theatre artists and performers, as well as for the wider professional public, to encourage them to seek a new and more just relationship between stage production and society and nature.
