Choreographing Agonism
Autor Goran Petrovi¿-Lotinaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 oct 2022
Inspired by post-Marxist theories of discourse theory, hegemony, conflict, and pluralism, and using tension as a guiding philosophical, political, and artistic force, the book expands the politico-philosophical debate on theories of performance. It offers both scholars and practitioners of performance a thought-provoking analysis of the ways in which artistic performance can be viewed politically as ‘agonistic choreo-political practice,’ a powerful strategy for mobilising alternative ways of living together and invigorating democracy.
Choreographing Agonism makes a boldand innovative contribution to the discussion of political and philosophical thought in the field of Performance Studies.

Recenzii
“Choreographing Agonism is a unique and timely addition to the intersecting fields of politico-philosophical thought and performance studies, offering new interdisciplinary connections between structures of thought underscored by a passionate political impulse.” (Tom Drayton, European Journal of Theatre and Performance, Issue 4, June, 2022)
Textul de pe ultima copertă
In Choreographing Agonism, author Goran Petrović Lotina offers new insight into the connections between politics and performance. Exploring the political and philosophical roots of a number of recent leftist civil movements, Petrović Lotina forcefully argues for a re-imagining of artistic performance as an instrument of democracy capable of contesting a dominant politics.
Inspired by post-Marxist theories of discourse theory, hegemony, conflict, and pluralism, and using tension as a guiding philosophical, political, and artistic force, the book expands the politico-philosophical debate on theories of performance. It offers both scholars and practitioners of performance a thought-provoking analysis of the ways in which artistic performance can be viewed politically as ‘agonistic choreo-political practice,’ a powerful strategy for mobilising alternative ways of living together and invigorating democracy.
Choreographing Agonism makes a bold and innovative contribution to the discussion of political and philosophical thought in the field of Performance Studies.
