Description:
"For students trying to make sense of the performativity and related concepts such as the speech act, 'ordinary language', and iterability, and for those seeking to understand the place of these ideas in contemporary performance theory, this guide will prove indispensable. Performativity offers not only path through challenging critical terrain, but a new understanding of just what is at stake in the exploration of this field."--Jacket.
