Intermediality in Theatre and Performance: Definitions, Perceptions and Medial Relationships
Year: 2008
Type: article
Abstract: This article provides a brief overview of the discourse on the relationships between the arts and media over the twentieth century, with specific reference to the concepts of mediality: multi-, trans- and intermediality set in discourse of arts and media relationships. I discuss the concepts, together with the impact of the growth of media technological developments, on the perception of audiences to the works of Wagner, Kandinsky, Meyerhold, Balázs, Eisenstein, Brecht, and to contemporary theatre and performance-makers, before concluding with a short presentation of my own current thinking about the concept and purpose of intermediality.
