Description

This book presents a phenomenological model for understanding radio drama and uses it to analyse the practice of radio dramaturgy in the UK. It argues that the central role of the body in the act of listening has been neglected and suggests that a more resonant, embodied dramaturgy is needed to meet the demands of current listening cultures. -- .
