Weber Samuel

Summary

Samuel Weber: Theatricality as a Medium

A multidisciplinary study that investigates textual practices about theater that question the aesthetic-generic conception of theater, known since Aristotle. Rejecting the assumption that theater is a form of representation based solely on muthos, Samuel Weber insists on the importance of the material environment of the theater, its specific stage medium, or more precisely, everything related to the spectacle. By reading Plato, the Greek tragedians, Shakespeare, Kierkegaard, Kafka, Freud, Benjamin and other thinkers who develop alternatives to dominant narrative aesthetic assumptions about theater as a medium, Weber also examines the relationship between theatricality and new media. In the constant semantic and syntactic interweaving and confrontation of modern philosophy and media culture, Weber's study of new media does not look at breaking with the characteristics of live performance, but through the intensification of the ambivalence of the terms "place" and "identity", which was present even in the ancient theater.
