The Theatrescapes Blog is envisioned as a tool for academic debate as well as a resource for other scholars, students, or interested audiences. We plan to use it as a gateway to our web-based research tool Cliometrics and intend to publish book reviews, comments, working papers, and a glossary to our key concepts. We invite colleagues to comment on our publications and wish to engage in debates on our own work, related other research projects, or a more general understanding on the routes and roots of 19th and early 20th century theatre.
