Kattintson ide a feliratkozáshoz
This edited volume constitutes the first historical study of the phenomenon of European theatre migration, and thus contributes in new and important ways to the formation of a historical discourse on theatre and migration. The hidden histories of European theatre migration that this book seeks to explore allow us to rethink global theatre history as a history of mobility with Europe as the point of departure rather than the point of arrival. It also allows the reader to challenge and to decenter a European self-understanding of insularity and a European cosmopolitanism ignorant of its imperial and colonial roots.
Berenika Szymanski-Düll is Professor in Theatre Studies with a focus on transnational theatre history at LMU Munich, Germany, and leads the research project T-MIGRANTS funded by the European Research Council.

Berenika?s research is characterized by a strong interdisciplinary approach and situated at the crossroads of theatre, history and society.

Lisa Skwirblies is Assistant Professor in Theatre and Performance Studies at the University of Amsterdam.
