This comprehensive, authoritative account of tragedy is the culmination of Hans-Thies Lehmann’s groundbreaking contributions to theatre and performance scholarship. It is a major milestone in our understanding of this core foundation of the dramatic arts. From the philosophical roots and theories of tragedy, through its inextricable relationship with drama, to its impact upon post-dramatic forms, this is the definitive work in its field. Lehmann plots a course through the history of dramatic thought, taking in Aristotle, Plato, Seneca, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Lacan, Shakespeare, Schiller, Holderlin, Wagner, Maeterlinck, Yeats, Brecht, Kantor, Heiner Müller and Sarah Kane.
Argues for the educational value of discontinuous experiences such as doubt and struggle, based on fresh readings of John Dewey and J. F. Herbart.
This volume provides systematic, interdisciplinary, and intercultural impulses for a phenomenological pedagogy of emotions, feelings, and moods without subordinating them to the logocentric dualism of emotion and rationality. Starting from foundational and cultural perspectives on pedagogical relations of education, learning, and Bildung, specific emotions in individual studies, as well as different approaches of important representatives of phenomenological research on emotions are presented. The contributions include pedagogical, philosophical, and empirical approaches to feelings, emotions, and moods, highlighting their fundamental importance and productivity for learning, Bildung, and education in different pedagogical institutions and fields.
Neue Theaterformen werden zunehmend mit Kindern und Jugendlichen erarbeitet, die als Akteure und als Experten ihres Alltags ernst genommen werden: Ihr Wissen, ihre Erfahrungen und Persönlichkeiten fließen ein - es geht nicht länger darum, sie durch Theater zu erziehen. Die Arbeit mit Laien ist längst ein wichtiger Teil neuer Formen des professionellen Theaters geworden. Theater bekommt auf diese Weise wieder verstärkt den Charakter eines sozialen Experiments, in dem jeder Mensch mit seiner Persönlichkeit einen Beitrag leisten kann. Dadurch entstehen Freiräume für Kreativität jenseits pädagogischer Zielvorgaben. Dieser Band behandelt das Phänomen erstmals umfassend mit Beiträgen namhafter Wissenschaftler, Besprechungen von Stücken und Interviews mit Künstlern.

'Tanzwelten' macht die Anthropologie des Tanzens zum Thema. In dieser Perspektive rückt nicht der Tanz in seiner historischen und ästhetischen Vielschichtigkeit, sondern das Tanzen als aus dem Alltag herausgehobene, ästhetische Dimension der Selbst-Bewegung ins Zentrum des Interesses. Es geht dabei um elementare Fragen an einen wesentlichen modus operandi des Menschen. Was geschieht eigentlich mit einem selbst und mit anderen, wenn man sich dieser den Leib transformierenden Bewegung hingibt? Was sind die qualitativen Eigenheiten tänzerischer Selbstbewegungen? Was bedeuten derartige Bewegungen dem sich bewegenden Subjekt? Wie entsteht eine als getanzt wahrgenommene Bewegung? Und wie entst...
The heart of this book is the translation of The Life Space of the Urban Child, written in 1935 by Martha and Hans Heinrich Muchow. Life Space provides a fresh look at children as actors and how they absorb their city environments. It uses an empirical base connected with theories about the worlds in which children live. The first section provides historical background on Muchow's study and the author. The second section presents the translation of the Life Space study, as well as comments from an environmental psychologist's perspective. The third section reviews the study's theoretical foundations, including the concept of "critical personalism," the perspectives of phenomenology, and the ...
