For Hannah Arendt, a space of appearance is formed "when people act and speak with one another" and, in doing so, constantly reassess the power relations that create and maintain this space. Beyond Arendt, however, these negotiation processes must also be extended to those with and between non-human beings. The books in this series examine the rules of access to spaces of appearance, their infrastructures and the experiences that are tested or jeopardised in them. At the interface between theatre and other cultural studies, performance studies, political, post- and decolonial theory, anthropology as well as queer and gender studies, these works ask who or what can appear, where and how and under what conditions. How do the scenic arts experiment with possible forms of appearance and make its spaces tangible?
