Theatre, performance, and memory politics in Argentina
Werth, Brenda G.

Theatre, performance, and memory politics in Argentina[electronic resource] /Brenda Werth. - 1st ed. - New York, NY :Palgrave Macmillan,2010. - 1 online resource (x, 257 p.) :ill.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [233]-247) and index.

Introduction -- Transition and the performance of retroactive justice -- From Antigone to Orpheus : alternative myths and figures of mourning -- Performing confessions onstage and on the stand -- Argentina's postdictatorial stages : resting places and places of unrest -- Argentina's middle class : paradigm of crisis and renewal -- Intergenerational memory and performative acts of recovery -- Conclusion.

In Argentine theatre spanning from the democratic transition to the early twenty-first century, the expression of human fragility has taken diverse forms, revealing the transformative engagement of performance with memory politics and human rights over the course of the postdictatorial period. This book examines the intervention of theatre and performance in the memory politics surrounding Argentina's return to democracy and in the context of the growing influence of global economic, legal, and cultural systems in the nineties onward. Though staged locally, the plays and performances analyzed in this book invite spectators to imagine global communities, to rethink shifting definitions of solidarity and justice, and to reflect on the relationship between the politics of memory, identity, and place.
