Teatro e neuroscienze

Abstract

In the last decennia, many dialogues have developed by sharing among arts, aesthetics and sciences. The objective is to neuroaesthetics (dating back 1994) by Semir Zeki. To date, the training process of neuroaesthetics is focused on visual arts. Perhaps, the theatre might be the most suitable for neuroscientific studies. Some interesting results have been produced by mutual attention among neurosciences and theatre. Neurosciences are tending to consider the theatre as a natural category. The neural dimension study of intersubjectivity offers food for thought for a naturalization of actor’s tradition. So the theatre is regarded as a social pratice and loses its specificity.
