Reviews
'Menon convincingly demonstrates the political power of aesthetics, and goes on to show that film, theatre, music, and literature potentially undo rigid formations of national identity ... The Performance of Nationalism offers a refreshingly interdisciplinary approach to thinking through politics and performance. Menon's book is especially successful in positioning sonic elements of performance as gestures of political critique ... Ultimately, Menon's book reminds us that performance is both a tool of nation-making and a medium to critique and undo dangerous forms of nationalism.' Kareem Khubchandani, Theatre Journal

Synopsis
Imagine the patriotic camaraderie of national day parades. How does performance generate patriotic loyalty? How crucial is performance for the sustenance of the nation? This book offers a fresh analysis of nationalism from the perspective of performance and will appeal to those with an interest in history, culture or politics., Imagine the patriotic camaraderie of national day parades. How crucial is performance for the sustenance of the nation? The Performance of Nationalism considers the formation of the Indian and Pakistani nation, in the wake of the most violent chapter of its history: the partition of the subcontinent. In the process, Jisha Menon offers a fresh analysis of nationalism from the perspective of performance. Menon recuperates the manifold valences of "mimesis" as aesthetic representation, as the constitution of a community of witnesses, and as the mimetic relationality that underlies the encounter between India and Pakistan. The particular performances considered here range from Wagah border ceremonies, to the partition theatre of Asghar Wajahat, Kirti Jain, M. K. Raina, and the cinema of Ritwik Ghatak and M. S. Sathyu. By pointing to the tropes of twins, doubles, and doppelgangers that suffuse these performances, this study troubles the idea of two insular, autonomous nation-states of India and Pakistan. In the process, Menon recovers mimetic modes of thinking that unsettle the reified categories of identity politics., Imagine the patriotic camaraderie of national day parades.
