- Abstract
- This contribution aims to enrich the discussion on the notion of 'hybridity' in this present volume of Performance Research through the lens of the essay form. The interest of my present assessment is to demonstrate how 'hybridity' as a key feature of the essay form is not merely a random mix of styles and genres. Rather, as the essayistic performances in this contribution will illustrate, they attest to the desire to not only interrogate and to problematize the disciplines they draw from but also to enrich and to mediate between those disciplines.
