Worldly Stage - Theatricality in Seventeenth-Century China

Klappentext In 17th Century China! as formerly disparate social spheres grew closer! the theatre began to occupy an important ideological niche among traditional cultural elites. This book shows how the theatre acquired this figurative power. Zusammenfassung The goal of Worldly Stage is to show how the theater acquired the figurative power to animate diverse aspects of literati cultural production. Conceptions of theatrical spectatorship, Sophie Volpp argues, helped shape a discourse on social spectatorship that suggested how a discerning person might evaluate the performance of status.
