Since the late nineteenth century, theatre theorists have asserted that drama's origins lie in religious ritual. In this ambitious study, Rebecca Kastleman traces the modern and contemporary effects of that claim. Her ambitious, historically rich study reconfigures the crucial relations linking theatre, religion, and modernity.
