Reviews

McConachie's will be an important and influential book in its use of cognitive theory for the analysis of performance. It is learned and ambitious, synthesizing a number of perspectives on the study of American culture during the period and, by drawing liberally on works of psychology, philosophy, sociology, political theory, cultural history, and theater criticism, it provides a rich context in which to consider the plays and other performances analyzed.
