Mary Duggan, Roger Grainger

Imagination, Identification and Catharsis in Theatre and Therapy

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This study examines the underlying theatrical underpinning of dramatherapy, which is firmly based on an understanding of processes which are fundamentally theatrical. It approaches the subject systematically, arguing that the hidden psychological mechanisms which make theatre work are the same as those which operate in dramatherapy.
