Paula's Thesis Outline

What is the thesis going to be about?

In my thesis I want to dig into the concept of reenactment. I would like to explore the human desire for acting and how it can be utilized in different ways such as drama therapy, rhetorics or politics. Within this area I'm especially interested in the ambiguity of real and staged emotions and would like to examine areas where they coexist.
