Why do people act? Why are other people drawn to watch them? How is acting as a performing art related to role-playing outside the theater? As the first philosophical study devoted to acting,\ Acts: Theater, Philosophy, and the Performing Self\ sheds light on some of the more evasive aspects of the acting experience{\textemdash} such as the import of the actor{\textquoteright}s voice, the ethical unease sometimes felt while embodying particular sequences, and the meaning of inspiration. Tzachi Zamir explores acting{\textquoteright}s relationship to everyday role-playing through a surprising range of examples of {\textquotedblleft}lived acting,{\textquotedblright} including pornography, masochism, and eating disorders. By unearthing the deeper mobilizing structures that underlie dissimilar forms of staged and non-staged role-playing,\ Acts\ offers a multi-layered meditation on the percolation from acting to life.
