Thesis (Ph.D.)--New York University, 2004.

Intersecting the disciplines of theater, anthropology, and religion, this dissertation critically examines and documents contemporary performances of live violence and the suffering body. Chris Burden, Diamanda Galas, Orlan, Ron Athey, and Bill T. Jones are all "cutting edge" artists, from a range of performing disciplines, who use the traumatized body for critiquing violence and injustice, and for recovering meaning in an increasingly desacrilized post-industrial culture. I argue that the specters of sacrifice and the victimized body in these artists' works succeed not only in deconstructing the dualistic and exclusionary systems of representation, religion, history and politics, but also in illuminating what Rene Girard has argued are the unconscious bases of all cultural production: mimetic desire, violence, and difference. The dissertation uses feminist, poststructuralist, and queer theories, psychoanalysis, philosophy of religion, and ethics in its analysis.
