Inter Views in Performance Philosophy

This insightful collection, Inter Views in Performance Philosophy, explores the intersection of performance and philosophical thought, offering new perspectives and critical dialogues.

This book offers a glimpse into new perspectives on how philosophy operates in the spaces between thought and action. Inter Views in Performance Philosophy brings together insights from renowned contemporary philosophers and theorists, including Judith Butler, Alphonso Lingis, and Catherine Malabou. The text delves into the emerging field of performance philosophy, exploring the fruitful interactions that arise across various disciplines. By merging dramatic techniques with theoretical reflections, contributors from diverse geographical and institutional backgrounds trace the exchanges between French theory and contemporary Anglo-American philosophical and performance practices, challenging traditional approaches to knowledge.

Through the diverse voices presented, readers are invited to explore the in-between territories where performance intersects with conventional philosophical tools and mediums, such as writing, discipline, and politics. Inter Views in Performance Philosophy serves as a refreshing reminder of the transformative potential that performance-oriented thinking can bring to the academic landscape. As the field approaches its own institutionalization, this collection of essays and dialogues raises critical questions and offers insights that extend beyond the confines of established disciplinary boundaries.

This volume not only tends to the dynamically developing field of performance philosophy but also casts seeds of thought that reach far beyond its immediate context. The contributors emphasize the significance of dialogue as integral to both performance and philosophy, making this book essential reading for anyone interested in the evolving possibilities of this innovative field.
