Rethinking the Actor's Body: Dialogues with Neuroscience

Autor Dick McCaw
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 apr 2020
How does an actor embody a character? How do they use their body as an instrument of expression?

Rethinking the Actor's Body offers an accessible introduction to the fields of neurophysiology and embodied knowledge through a detailed examination of what an actor does with their body.

Built on almost a decade of conversations and public seminars by the author Dick McCaw in partnership with John Rothwell (Professor of Neurophysiology at University College London, UK), Rethinking the Actor's Body explores a set of questions and preoccupations concerning the actor's body and examines overlaps in research and practice in the fields of actor training, embodied knowledge and neurophysiology.

Recenzii

Rethinking the Actor's Body confronts us with the perspective to undertake the first steps towards something that in the long run could affect our understanding of not only the actor's, but also the 'ordinary', everyday body.
This is an excellent book. ... with such excellent, succinct confirmations and revelations entirely backed up by his dialogues with science. It is indispensable in this regard.
