Approaching Transnational America in Performance
Located at the crossroads of Performance Studies and transnational American Studies, the volume critically explores a rich field of on- and off-stage, aesthetic and everyday performances. It demonstrates that performance constitutes both a primary method and an object of study for transnational phenomena and America’s position in the world.
