By revealing the remarkable resonance between cognitive science and medieval visual theories, Stevenson demonstrates how understanding medieval culture can enrich the study of performance generally. She concludes by applying her theories of medieval performance culture to contemporary religious forms, including creationist museums, Hell Houses, and megachurches.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-06-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780230103191\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/9780230109070\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 216cm x140cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 264\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47692629115020,"sku":"9780230103191","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780230103191.jpg?v=1776694691","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780230103191","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
