Performance and American cultures
Inhalt:
Explores the intersection and history of American literary realism and the performance of spiritual and racial embodiment. Recovering a series of ecstatic performances in late 19th- and early 20th-century American realism, 'Realist Ecstasy' travels from camp meetings to Native American ghost dances to storefront church revivals to explore realism's relationship to spiritual experience. In her approach to realism as both an unruly archive of performance and a wide-ranging repertoire of media practices - including literature, photography, audio recording, and early film - Lindsay V. Reckson argues that the real was repetitively enacted and reenacted through bodily practice.
