Words as Performance

Mercoledì 23 e giovedì 24 marzo presso il Dipartimento Istituto Italiano di Studi Orientali ISO si terrà il simposio internazionale “Words as Performance: Oral Narratives, Poetry and Storytelling in Japan” che affronterà il tema del rapporto tra parola e performance in Giappone da una prospettiva triplice: poesia, narrazione orale e arti declamatorie. Il simposio, primo del genere in Italia, fornirà l’occasione per esperti provenienti da Stati Uniti, Europa e Giappone di confrontarsi sul tema della parola e sulle sue declinazioni in campo performativo. https://www.facebook.com/events/1799843870237780/
