Studies on the Ultimate Theatre Poetics of Saviour Nathan Anari Agoro

Studies on the Ultimate Theatre Poetics of Saviour Nathan Anari Agoro presents the new battleground of crusading, the soul and mind. It is about the instrumentality of theatre in contending for the soul’s salvation. However, the realisation is that the mind will stand in between. For the editors and SNA Agoro, it is the ultimate theatre given its superiority over every other form of the theatrical arts. Its nature as the numero uno of the arts portends that the subject matter of God can be literalised in ways that give mobility to literary concepts, such as the divine afflatus, anagogy, doxological poetics, and other aspects of hermeneutics that have found expression in dramatic literature, theory, and criticism. The 17 chapters in the book are within the cosmic purview of God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, and His relationship to the peoples of the earth; some of them called, others lost and in search of redemption; and some others called but trapped in the vortex of will and indecision. This book is a testament to the collaborative spirit, intellectual curiosity, and passion for theatre that define our community.
