La marionnette iranienne sur les scènes théâtrales et à la télévision souligne le "grand" pouvoir de cette "petite" chose et trouve un espace pour jouer avec les pouvoirs. À la fois monstrueuse, maligne et minuscule, elle participe depuis au moins dix siècles à un double jeu mêlant des versions officielle et officieuse de la représentation. Tout en résistant aux changements de la société, elle se renouvelle en toute occasion et s'épanouit de nos jours en revendiquant à sa guise la liberté de parole et de geste. Pour saisir ce phénomène, cet ouvrage s'attache à suivre la marionnette dans la société iranienne et étudie comment dans chaque sphère, cette hybridité dépasse les limites et aborde les non-dits.

"Nations in Southeast Asia have gone through a period of rapid change within the last century as they have grappled with independence, modernization, and changing political landscapes. Governments and citizens strive to balance progress with the need to articulate identities that resonate with the pre-colonial past and look towards the future. Puppets and Cities: Articulating Identities in Southeast Asia addresses how puppetry complements and combines with urban spaces to articulate present and future cultural and national identities. Puppetry in Southeast Asia is one of the oldest and most dynamic genres of performance. Bangkok, Jakarta, Phnom Penh, and other dynamic cities are expanding and rapidly changing. Performance brings people together, offers opportunities for economic growth, and bridges public and private spheres. Whether it is a traditional shadow performance borrowing from Star Wars or giant puppets parading down the street--this book examines puppets as objects and in performance to make culture come alive. Based on several years of field research--watching performances, working with artists, and interviewing key stakeholders in Southeast Asian cultural production--the book offers a series of rich case studies of puppet performance from various locations, including: theatre in suburban Bangkok; puppets in museums in Jakarta, Indonesia; puppet companies from Laos PDR, the National Puppet Theatre of Vietnam, and the Giant Puppet Project in Siem Reap, Cambodia; new global puppetry networks through social media; and how puppeteers came together from around the region to create a performance celebrating ASEAN identity"--

"This handbook aims mainly at an analytical documentation of all the known textual remnants and the preserved artifacts of Arabic shadow theatre, a long-lived, and still living, tradition - from the earliest sightings in the tenth century to the turn of the twentieth century. The book consists of three main parts and a cluster of appendixes. Part One presents a history of Arab shadow theatre through a survey of medieval and premodern accounts and modern scholarship on the subject. Part Two takes stock of primary sources (manuscripts), published studies, and the current knowledge of various aspects of Arabic shadow theatre: language, style, terminology, and performance. Part Three offers an inventory of all known Arabic shadow plays. The documentation is based on manuscripts (largely unpublished), printed texts (scripts, excerpts), academic studies (in Arabic and Western languages), journalist reportage, and shadow play artifacts from collections worldwide"--
