%0 Journal Article %T Le celebrazioni del mondo contadino e le pratiche del teatro in ambiente naturale: un confronto %A Anna Bianchi %J Ricerche di S/Confine %D 2013 %I Universit¨¤ di Parma %X This paper develops a chapter of my dissertation, LĄŻarte del percepire: esperienze contemporanee di Teatro nella Natura in Italia (The art of perception: contemporary Italian experiences of Theatre in the Nature). I propose a particular point of view over these theatre practices: I claim that they can be approached and analytically compared to some features of rural teatrality and rituality, such as identified by Paolo Toschi in his classical book, Le origini del teatro italiano, a ground study forunderstanding the connections between theatre and folklore. Actually we can identify long-lasting devices (procession, singing, storytelling, dance, ritual) which were typical of rural teatrality and rituality, and which occur, as well, in contemporary theatre practices in the nature, despite the radicaldifferences that separate popular tradition from contemporary theatre research %K Paolo Toschi %K teatro nella natura %K processione teatrale %K danza %K canto %K ritualit¨¤ %K narrazione %U http://www.ricerchedisconfine.info/dossier-1/BIANCHI.htm
