Pitches, J orcid.org/0000-0003-4754-9378 (2019) Introduction: On Mountains. Performance Research, 24 (2). pp. 1-7. ISSN 1352-8165
Abstract
In this general introduction to the issue, I lay out the case for performance and mountain arts research generally to be more fully integrated into Mountain Studies. I pinpoint two salient examples of where mountains’ status and agency has been elevated through performative means and recognize the wider project, Performing Mountains, for which this issue is a key outcome. Finally, I position the articles in relation to key themes which emerge across the range of submissions: Mountains and Impossibility; Translating Mountains; Symbolizing Mountains; Mountains as Sites of Protest and Political Expression; Mountain Representation; and Mountains, Scenography and Materiality.
