It comes as a surprise to many that the elemental human impulse to tell stories, far from being the exclusive realm of children's bedtime, long-forgotten civilizations and remote cultures, is also a burgeoning creative art form here, now, in twenty-first century, postindustrial societies. Storytelling in the Moment is a wide-ranging, multidisciplinary yet accessible exploration of contemporary verbal storytelling in Britain and Ireland. Primary research focuses attention on the working practices of today's storytellers, the role of the listener/participant in a storytelling event, the informal groups and established organizations that sustain its development, the multifaceted roles that storytelling now plays in our society and the complex network interconnections that link its component parts. It also seeks to reveal how an emergent, grassroots, socio-cultural movement can become ubiquitous in society but pass largely unnoticed by a wider public in an age of global mass-media. 令许多人感到惊讶的是,人类讲故事的本能冲动,远不是孩子们睡觉时的专属领域,也不是长期被遗忘的文明和偏远的文化,而是这里,现在,在21世纪的后工业社会中,一种新兴的创造性艺术形式。此时此刻的故事是一个广泛的,多学科的,但易于理解的探索当代口头故事在英国和爱尔兰。主要的研究集中在今天的故事讲述者的工作实践,听众/参与者在讲故事活动中的角色,非正式团体和维持其发展的已有组织,讲故事现在在我们的社会中扮演的多方面角色,以及连接其组成部分的复杂的网络相互联系。它还试图揭示,在全球大众媒体时代,一场新兴的草根社会文化运动如何能够在社会中变得无处不在,而在很大程度上却被更广泛的公众忽视。 基本信息 出版社 : Lannoo Publishers (2019年2月1日) 语言 : 英语 平装 : 170页 ISBN-10 : 9038221991 ISBN-13 : 978-9038221991 商品重量 : 395 g 尺寸 : 15.77 x 1.3 x 24.16 cm
