In addition to identifying theater's intrinsically haunted features, Carlson persuasively suggests that many of the influential terms in theater studies have been attempts to describe something like haunting, whether Richard Schechner's "restored behavior" or Joseph Roach's "surrogation" (1-2).

Meanwhile, the textual space responds to what I would call, following Joseph Roach, a "principle of surrogation," which would posit death as an integrating process presumably negotiated through kinship:

Also of some slight concern is Rebhorn's invocation of Joseph Roach's concept of "surrogation" in his analysis of blackface minstrelsy, insofar as it points to a question very much deserving of further analysis and interpretation.
