Contemporary life in most nation-states is not truly cultural, but rather "culture-like," especially in large-scale societies. Beginning with a distinction between special events and everyday life, Lewis examines fundamental events including play, ritual, work, and carnival and connects personal embodied habits and large-scale cultural practices. Lowell Lewis is Senior Lecturer in Anthropology and Performance Studies at the University of Sydney, Australia. 1. Special Events and Everyday Life 2. Play as Performance 3. Rituals and Ritual-like Genres 4. Performative Processes: Types of P/p relations 5. Embodiment, Emplacement, and Cultural Process 6. Problems in Performance and Cultural Theory
