The eight essays presented here investigate these questions, examining the contemporary significance of the "classic" Nō, and Kyōgen theater to Japan and the West. They explore the theatrical experience from many perspectives - those of theater, music, dance, art, literature, linguistics, philosophy, religion, history, and sociology. This volume marks the first time the contemporary position of classic Japanese theater has been so broadly investigated.'
