Frightful Stages explores all the shades of that strange emotion from reverence to terror. At its heart, awe is the condition of human suffering in situations that require you to act in all the senses of that deceptively simple word, whether on stage or off, whether in the presence of many or alone.Frightful Stages provides a multifaceted view of the semiotics of awe. It deals with its manifestations in film, on stage, in poetry, in ordinary lives as well as in the more extraordinary ones, including Bessie Smith, Carl Van Vechten, Barbra Streisand, Federico Fellini, Thomas Merton, and John Ashbery. This unprecedented book delineates the experience of awe in moments of stage fright, performance anxiety, and everyday interpersonal relations. Frightful Stages takes place on and off stage, before the curtain and behind, in the audience and on the screen. It explores the mysterious experience of awe in a multitude of contexts, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Thomas Merton's psychoanalytic showdown with Gregory Zilboorg \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the chronic tensions between Apollonian reason and Dionysian instinct in myth, psychoanalysis, creation, and performance \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the ill-fated encounter between the greatest of all blues singers and a brilliant, self-loathing literary critic \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the moment of awe in experiential psychotherapy as seen by both the analyst and client \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the differences and similarities between stage fright and social phobia \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the intricate interrelationships between pernicious envy, emotional awkwardness, and fear \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e a personal diary chronicling one man's crisis of panic, anguish, and self-doubt \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e the complexities of feeling, offering, and accepting reverence in the psychotherapeutic relationshipFrightful Stages gives clinicians and lay readers a variety of approaches from the analytic to the unanalytic, from the psychodynamic to the humanistic.
