Her paper, \u201cAudience Profiling: Cities, Audiences and the Politics of Cultural Identity in the US Arts Ecology,\u201d takes the city of Pittsburgh, PA, as its case study and explores the impact of the city&#8217;s longstanding reputation as a &#8220;working-class town&#8221; on historians&#8217;, critics&#8217;, and audiences&#8217; perceptions and evaluations of Pittsburgh&#8217;s artistic\/cultural products. <\/p>\n<p>At the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.slsa-eu.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">European Society for Literature, Science, and the Arts conference<\/a>, to be held in Basel June 21-24, Dr. Pizzato will present &#8220;To Feel or Not to Feel: Rasa-Cathartic Empathy with <em>Hamlet<\/em>.&#8221; Presenting survey data from a pedagogical experiment in his theatre history course at UNC Charlotte, Dr. Pizzato will consider how students&#8217; experience of the &#8220;To be or not to be&#8221; speech relates to his model of the brain&#8217;s inner theatre and potential rasa-cathartic effects while reading <em>Hamlet<\/em> or watching eight different video interpretations. &#8220;Rasa&#8221; is an ancient Indian theory of emotional flavors in works of art; &#8220;catharsis&#8221; is an ancient Greek notion of purifying emotions through shifting identifications with the tragic hero. Through the brain&#8217;s evolutionary heritage of theatrical networks, rasa-catharsis might be evoked as a greater mindfulness of the character&#8217;s and one&#8217;s own feelings, images, and ideas.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professor of Theatre Mark Pizzato and Department of Theatre Chair Lynne Conner will give scholarly presentations at international conferences in Hamburg, Germany; Paris, France; and Basel, Switzerland, in June.
