Routledge Handbook of African Theatre and Performance
The Routledge Handbook of African Theatre and Performance brings together the very latest international research on the performing arts across the continent and the diaspora into one expansive and wide-ranging collection. The book offers readers a compelling journey through the different ideas, people and practices that have shaped African theatre and performance, from pre-colonial and colonial times, right through to the 20th and early 21st centuries. Resolutely Pan-African and inter- national in its coverage, the book draws on the expertise of a wide range of Africanist scholars, and also showcases the voices of performers and theatre practitioners working on the cutting-edge of African th...

Applied Theatre and the Sustainable Development Goals
This book is the first definitive publication to consider the intersections of applied theatre and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – a series of goals which have shaped development and social justice initiatives from 2015 to 2030. It brings together emerging and leading scholars and practitioners engaged in creative and community contexts globally. In so doing, the book offers critical insights to explore the convergences, complexities, and tensions of working within development frameworks, through theatre. Divided into three thematic areas, it maps out the ways in which applied theatre has related to the SDGs, examines issues with global collaborations, and, as 2030 approaches and the SDG era draws to a close, interrogates such practices, envisioning what the role of applied theatre might be in the post-SDG era. The book provokes reflection about this specific era of applied theatre and global development, as well as discussion regarding what comes next. This volume will be of importance to students, artists, scholars, practitioners, and policymakers working in applied theatre and the field of development.
Die Opera buffa in Europa
Die Etablierung der Opera buffa veränderte die Opernlandschaft des 18. Jahrhunderts maßgeblich. Sie stellte einen inhaltlichen Kontrapunkt zur höfisch geprägten Opera seria dar und löste diese zunehmend in den Spielplänen ab. Wie aber ging die europaweite Verbreitung der komischen italienischen Oper vor sich? Wo konnte sie sich rascher als anderswo etablieren und wer waren die zentralen Akteurinnen und Akteure? Welche Rolle spielten mobile Operntruppen und wie verhielten sich die Höfe zu dem neuen Genre? Erstmals nehmen die Autorinnen in einer systematischen Analyse der Opera buffa in Europa Migration, Mobilität, Netzwerke und Transformationsprozesse zwischen 1740 und 1765 in den Blick. Mit einem Gastbeitrag von Tom Brökel und Heike Brökel.

Weltliche Herrschaft in geistlicher Hand
Die Ausübung weltlicher Macht durch kirchliche Institutionen zählt zu den Besonderheiten des Alten Reiches und seiner Verfassung. Man spricht in diesem Sinne verkürzend vom „Geistlichen Staat", obwohl geistliches und weltliches Regiment - etwa in der Verwaltung - durchweg klar voneinander unterschieden wurden. In ihrer Person freilich vereinten Bischöfe, Äbte oder Äbtissinnen zwei „Charaktere" und repräsentierten sowohl die kirchliche als auch die weltliche Obrigkeit. Wenn beispielsweise noch heute sprichwörtlich die Rede ist vom „guten Leben unterm Krummstab", unterstellt man im Allgemeinen den geistlichen Territorien im Vergleich mit weltlichen Herrschaften eine untertanenfre...
