Re-enacting the past: vivifying heritage ‘again’

, &
 

Notes

1. For a study of the performative power of the Caminata Nocturna tours, see Magelssen (Citation2011). For a discussion of Jeremy Deller’s Battle of Orgreave re-enactment, see Correia (Citation2006). The Indonesian context to Joshua Oppenheimer’s The Act of Killing is detailed in Anderson (Citation2012). For an inquiry into the role of material culture in the Society for Creative Anachronism, see Sparkis (Citation1992).

2. Earlier landmark studies that continue to inform the field include Snow (Citation1993); Samuel (Citation1994); Crang (Citation1996); Handler and Gable (Citation1997); Handler and Saxton (Citation1988); Kirshenblatt-Gimblett (Citation1998). In the philosophy of history, Collingwood’s (Citation1946) seminal theories on re-enactment as (intellectual, historiographical) method form an important, if often indirect, backdrop to much current work.

3. Here, Schneider draws on Schechner’s (Citation1985) foundational dictum in performance studies of what he called ‘restored behaviour’ and the ‘not not me’, indeed making her own phrase a form of recast re-enactment in itself.
