The cover of the issue Turning Points and Continuity: Reformulating Questions to the Archives.
Under the title Turning Points and Continuity: Reformulating Questions to the Archives, this special issue of Nordic Theatre Studies gathers articles emanating from a joint research project – as well as articles by invited guest writers – all dealing with the period 1880-1925.
The project, and consequently also this collection of articles, centres on the twofold task of re-examining the period of the so-called modern breakthrough in performing arts and to rethink the historiographical approach, thereby adding to the theoretical and methodological toolbox of historical research.
