Hufford discusses the chase itself as a performance unfolding through an established sequence of events, and ordered accordingly to clearly understood rules and conventions. Orchestrating and interpreting the chase, foxhunters conjure the Chaseworkd, a realm wherein nature and society are uniquely reconstructed. Drawing upon theories from folklore, phenomenological sociiology, and symbolic anthropology, Hufford explores the interrelations of the Chaseworld and everyday life, and suggests possible meanings and functions of the Chaseworld in the lives of its creators.
