摘要、提要註:	Performing the Body in Irish Theatre reads recent Irish theatre history through the discipline of performance studies, re-imagining Irish theatre history by considering stagings of the body in canonical works. The five plays and their productions analyzed closely here are each significant in terms of the performance idiom and the placing of body. Bernadette Sweeney focuses on the liveness of the bodies of the actors andon the performance context, using gender and postcolonial studies to set the context of each production. Productions analyzed include the high-profile (Dancing at Lughnasa), the influential (The Great Hunger) andthe hidden (The Saxon Shore). The book also considers contemporary stagings of the body in Irish theatre, including dance theatre and interdisciplinary work.
