9 Acknowledgements We gratefully acknowledge the journal Modern Drama for granting us permission to reprint four chapters of this volume as well as parts of the introduction and afterword, which first appeared in a special issue entitled Modernism and Anti-Theatricality (Fall 2001). Thanks also to the editors of the journal at that time, Ric Knowles, Joanne Tompkins and W. B. Worthen, who allowed us to serve as guest-editors. Also at Modern Drama, Kim Solga and Sylvia Hunter were indispensable in seeing the articles to press. We are also pleased for our book to inaugurate Palgrave s Performance Interventions series and wish to extend special thanks to Bryan Reynolds for helping to make that possible. We gratefully acknowledge those at Palgrave who have contributed to this project along the way: Paula Kennedy, Helen Craine and Penny Simmons. We are delighted to take this opportunity to thank Andrea Most and Amanda Claybaugh for reading drafts of the introduction and for their support in innumerable ways as we worked on this project. Finally, we wish to express our deep gratitude to two of our finest teachers, Elaine Scarry and Barbara Johnson, to whom we dedicate this book. They taught us that to think against can also be a way of thinking for and that to resist representation is to challenge assumptions about the world and, at the same time, to intervene in it.
