Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
A truly classic text now in its third edition, theory/theatre provides a unique, engaging introduction to literary theory as it relates to theatre and performance. It examines current theoretical approaches clearly and accessibly, from semiotics and poststructuralism through cultural materialism, postcolonial studies and feminist theory. In this fully revised new edition, Mark Fortier particularly expands and updates sections on queer theory, postmarxist theory, technology and virtuality, and post-colonialism and race. Fortier also provides a brand new epilogue on cognitive science, and a revised glossary. The book remains the most accessible, useful and reliable study of its kind.
MoreLong description:
Theory/Theatre is a unique and highly engaging introduction to literary theory as it relates to theatre and performance. It is a brilliantly clear and readable examination of current theoretical approaches, from semiotics and poststructuralism, through cultural materialism, postcolonial studies and feminist theory.
In this, the third and fully revised edition of this now classic text, Mark Fortier particularly expands and updates the sections on:
- queer theory
- postmarxist theory
- technology and virtuality
- post-colonialism and race
Also including completely new writing on cognitive science, fast becoming a cornerstone of theatre and performance theory, this revised edition is an indispensable addition to every theatre student?s collection.
"Fortier?s book is still extremely useful?authoritative, comprehensive, and evenhanded."
- CHOICE, R. Remshardt, University of Florida
