Entre tablados e arenas: performances culturais

Abstract

This article deals with the historical course taken by the transdisciplinary thinking that has been built in the 20 th century, and has approximated two different fields: science and art. This approximation between the two, paved the way in the United States for the emergence of Cultural Performances Studies in the 1980s which has crisscrossed three formats: Erving Goffman’s sociological (2011) with the anthropological of Victor Turner (2008) and with theatrical developed by playwright Richard Schechner (2002). Through these studies presents initial notes on the interpretation of cultural performances.
