Central to the theory is the \u003ci\u003espectaculum—\u003c\/i\u003ea stage “world” that mirrors a monotheistic cosmic order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTova Gamliel here not only alerts the reader to the possibility of the spectaculum’s existence, but also illuminates its various structural dimensions: the cosmological, ritual, and sociological. Its \u003ci\u003ecosmo-logical\u003c\/i\u003e meaning is a Judeo-Christian monotheistic consciousness of non-randomness, an exemplary order of the world that the senses perceive. The \u003ci\u003eritual\u003c\/i\u003e meaning denotes the centrality of the spectaculum, as the theatre repeatedly reenacts the mythical and paradigmatic event of Biblical revelation. Its \u003ci\u003esocial\u003c\/i\u003e meaning concerns any charismatic social theory that is anchored in the epitomic structure of social sovereignty—stage and audience—that the Western theatre advances in an era characterized by hypermedia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2021-01-08\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030281304\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-28128-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 270\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44499754221708,"sku":"9783030281304","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030281304.jpg?v=1776699454","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030281304","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
