Great art is about emotion. In the eighteenth century, and especially for the English stage, critics developed a sensitivity to both the passions of a performance and what they called the transitions between those passions. It was these pivotal transitions, scripted by authors and executed by actors, that could make King Lear beautiful, Hamlet terrifying, Archer hilarious and Zara electrifying. James Harriman-Smith recovers a lost way of appreciating theatre as a set of transitions that produce simultaneously iconic and dynamic spectacles; fascinating moments when anything seems possible. Offering fresh readings and interpretations of Shakespearean and eighteenth-century tragedy, historical acting theory and early character criticism, this volume demonstrates how a concern with transition binds drama to everything, from lyric poetry and Newtonian science, to fine art and sceptical enquiry into the nature of the self.

Le théâtre est aujourd'hui plus qu'une discipline artistique ou qu'un des loisirs organisés. Il est, depuis la Révolution française, un des lieux de production de la Nation. C'est au croisement de ce que deviennent l'Etat et la culture qu'un regard sur le théâtre a aujourd'hui un sens. Ici, à l'occasion d'une résidence critique pendant le fesival d'Avignon 2009, mise en place par le "Off", la réflexion sur le théâtre se fait à partir de son cadre (institution, politiques culturelles), mais aussi de la réalité de ses scènes (spectacles, pratiques de plateau).
