This topic could include: the representation of space on stage; the representation of particular kinds of spaces or locations, or geographic imaginaries (domestic, urban, national, pastoral, undifferentiated space); the space of acting/playing (e.g., locus/platea); the use of transit, movement, exile, exit, entrance, procession; space as a created effect or stage property; the space of the audience; the spaces of staging outside theaters (the house, the court, etc.); the body in/as theatrical space; the politics or ideologies of space and particular spaces (analyzed along lines that might include but would not be limited to: gender, race, nation, class/rank, sexuality). Essays that raise methodological questions about the relation of theatrical history to the interpretation or analysis of "space" are particularly welcome. Deadline for submissions is March 15, 1998. Please send a self-addressed stamped envelope (if you wish to have the essay returned to you) and three copies of your essay to either of the following addresses: Professor Jeffrey Masten OR Professor Wendy Wall c/o Folger Shakespeare Library Department of English 201 E.
