| Abstract |

The theoretical introduction, the nō drama, including its farce companion kyōgen, is analysed from the broader anthropoligical perspective. Its various aspects are characterised according to biological, social, cultural and linguistic anthropology.

The second part focuses on embodiment and performativity as observed in amateur nō training and in the practice of using the nō mask.
