The Performance of Reading argues that there are distinct
analogies between ‘silent’ reading and artistic performance, and so
fashions the new role of the reader as performer.
* * An original and insightful exploration of the act of reading by
the leading scholar in the field.
* Discusses the history of reading and the transitions from
reading aloud to reading silently, and the changing role of
literature as communal, active experience to a more private
endeavor.
