Abstract

The article illustrates the ancient Kathakali dance-drama as the narration of stories embodied in the artist, letting the essentially pathic and proprioceptive dimensions of the individual body not only emerge, but also extend to a typological corporality. Reversing to the background of strictly personal characteristics to contain and express universal emotions contributes to generate the integration between the subjective and the objective body, to experiment the psychophysical unity, in a constant research for both internal and external balance, generating a affective-attunement with the public which, throughout the performance, experiences increasingly higher levels of emotional involvement. It is this form of intercorporeal resonance and empathic participation, considered through the second person perspective, which defines the taste as aesthetic pleasure shared between the actor and the spectator.
