Synopsis

Heidegger and Performance explores convergences, direct or indirect, conscious or unconscious, between Heidegger’s work and ideas of performance and performativity. The book's central provocation is to replace the word ‘being’ with ‘performance’ and interpret through Heidegger new ways of understanding both terms.
