Beschreibung
"Daphne A. Brooks is a brilliant, creative, and original thinker. Because Brooks so adeptly crosses the disciplinary boundaries of fields as diverse as performance studies, nineteenth-century American literature, and black studies, "Bodies in Dissent" is an extraordinary model of interdisciplinary scholarship. Brooks's original archival work coupled with her engagement with recent scholarship in cultural studies and studies of the black Atlantic provides us with a beautifully written exploration and theory of black performance practices."--Farah Jasmine Griffin, author of "If You Can't Be Free, Be A Mystery: In Search of Billie Holiday "
