El intérprete

Combining the sociological and philosophical essay with extensive erudition and a very juicy anecdote, as well as with multiple personal experiences, the author proposes a vast tour through the universe of interpretation. The evolution of performing spaces throughout history, the relationship between the performer and the spectator, the stage, the agora and the city, the tension between artistic creation and social and religious guidelines, the abuse of histrionics and gesticulation by politicians given to demagoguery... We all play some role: the world is a stage. This ambitious book is the first of a planned trilogy dedicated to human forms of expression: interpreting, narrating and imagining.
