Abstract:

This collection of essays brings together theories of play and game with theatre and performance to produce new understandings of the history and design of early modern English drama. Through literary analysis and embodied practice, an international team of distinguished scholars examines a wide range of games—from dicing to bowling to roleplaying to videogames—to uncover their fascinating ramifications for the stage in Shakespeare’s era and our own. Foregrounding ludic elements challenges the traditional view of drama as principally mimesis, or imitation, revealing stageplays to be improvisat

Abstract:

Imitating Authors analyses the theory and practice of imitatio (the imitation of one author by another) from early Greek texts right up to recent fictions about clones and artificial humans. At its centre lie the imitating authors of the English Renaissance, including Ben Jonson and the most imitated imitator of them all, John Milton. Imitating Authors argues that imitation is not simply a matter of borrowing words, or of alluding to an earlier author. Imitators learn practices from earlier writers. They imitate the structures and forms of earlier writing in ways that enable them to create a n

Abstract:

The financial crisis of 2007–2008, which spread from the United States to other parts of the world, gave impetus to a renewed interest in the concepts of contagion and imitation. These are concepts that figure prominently in the work of the French criminologist and sociologist Gabriel Tarde (1843–1904). Since the late 1990s, Tarde’s work has witnessed a rebirth in social theory. This chapter offers an interpretation of Tarde and highlights some of its implications for thinking about processes and organizations, with an emphasis on the distinction between organizations and organizing and Tarde’

Abstract:

Pausanias’s Periegesis, an historically and culturally selective topography of the lower Greek mainland, is unlike any work produced in the Second Sophistic, but there are several features of the text that render it difficult to imagine it as the product of any other period. Pausanias shares with his sophistic contemporaries a nostalgia for the glories of classical Greece, a tendency toward religiosity, a moralistic outlook on history, and a literary taste for learned imitation of classical masters. Yet the particular choices Pausanias makes in each of these areas make him a unique representat

Abstract:

Peculiar Attunements places the recent turn to affect into conversation with a parallel movement that took place in European music theory of the eighteenth century. During that time the affects—or the passions, as they were also called—formed a vital component of a mimetic model of the arts. Eighteenth-century critics held that artworks imitated or copied the natural world in order to produce copies of the affects in their beholders. But music caused a problem for these thinkers, since it wasn’t apparent that musical tones could imitate anything with any dependability (except, perhaps, for the

Abstract:

As a writer Emerson privileges originality and idiosyncrasy over imitation and repetition. This puts him in a paradoxical position when he writes about style. Writers only write because of earlier writers; and they only learn to write, initially, through imitating those they emulate. And to develop a discernible style inevitably involves a certain amount of repetition—of vocabulary, of syntax, of rhythm, and of subject matter. If tradition makes originality possible, as Emerson can’t help but acknowledge, how does the writer sufficiently distinguish himself? And if style is only identifiable t

Abstract:

While Cavendish wrote a great deal about medicine, surprisingly little attention has been paid to this aspect of Cavendish’s thought. This chapter shows how focusing on the themes of peace and order illuminates Cavendish’s medical thinking. The chapter begins by locating Cavendish’s views in historical context, showing that she sided with Galenists rather than iatrochemists such as Paracelsus and van Helmont. Her objections to iatrochemistry are shown to be part of a broader rejection of alchemy. The chapter argues that Cavendish’s views on health, disease, causes of disease, and cures for dis

Abstract:

In this chapter, the author explores the roots of the phenomena of creativity through exposing the axiomatic basis of the open-systemic nature of all human life, together with the processes of imagination that link the past and the future at the moment of the present. James Mark Baldwin’s notion of persistent imitation is at the root of imaginative acts that give rise to phenomena of the creative kind. Together with William Stern’s personology and Magoroh Maruyama’s focus on amplification of variability (“second cybernetics”), we have the basic building blocks for a theory of creativity that i

Ideas of self-sovereignty and self-sacrifice drew American and French revolutionaries to Roman virtuous exemplars—and into errors of reception, according to prominent contemporaries. Focusing on Benjamin Constant’s and Edmund Burke’s critique of the excited pleasure revolutionaries take in imitating Roman models, this chapter asks what insight into the mechanisms of political change we may gain by studying the revolutionary desire for Rome and the rage felt by the opponents of revolution against that desire.

The emergence of crowd theory in nineteenth-century sociology provided a new language for thinking how unruly bodies gather together organically. Drawing on the first large-scale biohistories of the French Revolution, made possible through documents unveiled at the Archives Nationales, theories of crowds, revolutionary and disordered, animal, automatic and ecological, spawned a genealogy of thinking about the way individuals’ movements were rendered—it was thought—primitive in groups.

Abstract:

This chapter concentrates on the mimetic theory of Rene Girard in evaluating foundational myths of violence. It shows Girard's notion of the scapegoating mechanism, whereby a substitute victim absorbs the mimetic animosities of the entire group and thereby promotes peace, as applicable to the disturbing tendency to direct violence outward toward exogenous groups. According to Girard, competition is the main source of human violence. His explanation, that violence has its roots in competition or mimetic rivalry, contributes to Thomas Hobbes, who also highlighted this cause of violence at the be

Abstract:

Before children learn to use language, they learn about the world in action and by imitation. This learning provides the basis for language acquisition. Learning by imitation and thinking in action continue to be significant throughout life. Mathematical concepts are grounded in children’s schemas of action, which are action patterns that represent a logical organization that can be applied to different objects. This chapter describes some of the conditions that allow deaf or hard-of-hearing (DHH) children to learn by imitation and use schemas of action successfully to solve mathematical probl
