WOLFGANG HALLET

Title of Keynote: The performativity of space and performative competence 

This paper intends to look at space as an educational paradigm from the perspective of spatial theories as developed in sociology and cultural geography. Most of these theories draw upon Henri Lefebvre鈥檚 contention in his work La production de l鈥檈space (1974) that space does not exist in itself, but that it is always socially produced and permanently (re-) constituted in and through acts of social interaction. Therefore, spaces are performative in Austin鈥檚 (and Judith Butler鈥檚) terms of performativity: They are re-iteratively made, refigured and modified in acts of use and interaction. According to such sociocultural theories, space is therefore not a physical container that is simply there to be used or that must be 鈥榝illed鈥� somehow.

鈥楻efiguration鈥� as a socially productive activity (鈥榮pacing鈥�) must be understood rather literally since space is a result of the respective manifold interrelations between agents, objects and the specific ways in which they are arranged (Martina L枚w鈥檚 concept of 鈥榬elational space鈥�). Moreover, 鈥榮pacing鈥� is never only a physical (or: 鈥榬eal鈥�) activity, but any space is always also imagined and symbolized while it is being used. This is why, drawing directly on Lefebvre, Edward Soja contends that spaces are always 鈥榬eal-and-imagined鈥�, they are 鈥渟imultaneously real and imagined, concrete and abstract, material and metaphorical.鈥� (Soja 1996: 65)

鈥楽pacing鈥� is therefore also an act of imagination and signification, a semiotic act of understanding and of making meaning, and spaces have more or less conventionalized meanings that can be, and normally are, 鈥歳ead鈥� and decoded. This symbolic dimension constitutes the need to acquire the 鈥榣anguage of space鈥� in cultural and social education in general and a 鈥榣anguage for space鈥� in language learning, and in the foreign language classroom in particular. This paper will therefore also delineate the implications for 鈥榩erforming space鈥� and for 鈥榩erforming in space鈥� (spatial 鈥榯heatricality鈥� sensu Fischer-Lichte) in language learning, and the role of discourse competence for the acquisition of performative competence in terms of symbolizing, negotiating and (re-)defining spatial meanings.

Wolfgang Hallet is Professor of Teaching English as a Foreign Language and member of the Executive Board of the International Graduate Centre for the Study of Culture and Head of its Teaching Centre at Justus Liebig 深夜亚洲福利久久 Giessen, Germany. He is co-editor of a series of handbooks on teaching literature and culture, of a handbook series on teaching foreign languages, of the Giessen Contributions to Foreign Language Research (T眉bingen: Narr), the Giessen Contributions to the Study of Culture (Trier: WVT), of the international book series Concepts for the Study of Culture (CSC; Berlin & New York: de Gruyter) and a major German bi-monthly journal on Teaching English as a Foreign Language (Der fremdsprachliche Unterricht Englisch).

In foreign language teaching his research and publications, including several monographs, comprise study of culture-based theories of teaching culture, literature-related competencies and, most recently, genre learning. His concept of performative competence draws upon Victor Turner鈥檚 anthropological contention that generically, i.e. structurally and thematically, social interaction (鈥檚ocial drama鈥�) is closely intertwined with the stage drama, and vice versa (see SCENARIO issue ). Together with Carola Surkamp he recently edited a volume on Teaching Drama and Drama Pedagogy (2015, Trier: WVT). He has also researched and published on the spatial turn in literary studies, on the constitution of space in literary texts and on space and language learning.

MADONNA STINSON

Title of Keynote: Hope, pedagogies, and travelling towards shared understandings

The diversity of papers, presentations and workshops at this conference attests to the range of epistemologies that we, teaching-artists and researchers, hold as we work to bridge contexts within the areas of drama and second, and additional, language learning. In this presentation I consider the moral imperative of our work as teachers of second and additional languages. In doing so I draw Paolo Freire鈥檚 Pedagogy of Hope, Maxine Greene鈥檚 aesthetics, and Elliot Eisner鈥檚 theories of arts and learning.

I share learnings that have emerged from previous and current research in Singapore and Australia, together with the work of colleagues internationally, who use process drama and devising theatre as pedagogical frames within language teaching. From these reports of recent research I propose pedagogical characteristics and qualities that contribute positively to language learning. I envisage such pedagogical stances as hope-generating processes, which encourage learners to imagine and enact futures that contain possibilities beyond their current, often constraining, contexts and circumstances.

The presentation goes on to consider methodological implications of dual-handed research into drama and language teaching and learning. By dual-handed, I mean working as artist and teacher concurrently as we balance both artistry and teaching in the learning process. In conclusion I consider the challenges and possibilities of researching practice in ways that allow for nuanced understandings to emerge and to be communicated within and beyond the field. 

Madonna Stinson is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Education, Griffith 深夜亚洲福利久久, Brisbane, Australia.

Title of Plenary Paper (in German):

Theaterp盲dagogik in Deutschland: Entwicklungen, Prinzipien und Perspektiven

Die Theaterp盲dagogik gibt es nicht. Wie in anderen anwendungsorientierten Disziplinen existieren auch innerhalb der Theaterp盲dagogik verschiedene Praktiken, Arbeitsfelder und theoretische Ans盲tze nebeneinander. Theorien und Praktiken der Theaterp盲dagogik sind selbstverst盲ndlich abh盲ngig von der jeweils historischen und kulturellen Entwicklung und unterscheiden sich, je nachdem welche Vorstellungen vom Subjekt von der Kunst des Theaters und vom Verh盲ltnis von  P盲dagogik und Theatern zugrunde gelegt werden. 

Ich m枚chte in meinem Vortrag zun盲chst einen kurzen Blick auf die j眉ngere historische Entwicklung der Theaterp盲dagogik in Deutschland werfen. In einem zweiten Schritt  werde ich in systematischer Absicht nach unterschiedlichen Formen der Gestaltung des Verh盲ltnisses von Theater und P盲dagogik und der ihnen entsprechenden Praxis fragen. Drittens geht es mir darum einige aktuelle Entwicklungen aufzuzeigen und zu fragen, welche Perspektiven sich daraus f眉r die (interkulturelle) Verst盲ndigung 眉ber Theaterp盲dagogik ergeben k枚nnten. 

Ulrike Hentschel studierte Erziehungswissenschaft, Sozialwissenschaften und Theaterp盲dagogik in Bochum und Berlin. Seit 2001 ist sie Professorin f眉r Theaterp盲dagogik und Darstellendes Spiel an der Universit盲t der K眉nste Berlin. Sie ist Mitherausgeberin der 鈥瀂eitschrift f眉r Theaterp盲dagogik. Korrespondenzen鈥�.

PERFORMANCES

ARTIG

Conference delegates will have an opportunity to see ImproTheatre. 

We are looking forward to welcoming VIENNA-based Improtheatre group ARTIG back to Cork. 

鈥�

RIGHT HERE - RIGHT NOW!

Just imagine you can be whoever you want to be, you can live wherever you want to live and every single moment is the beginning of a great adventure! Welcome to the exciting world of improvisational theatre.

Improvisational theatre, also known as improv, is a form of theatre where all of what is performed is created at the moment. The dialogue, the action, the story and the characters are created collaboratively by the players or in interaction between audience and players. The three performers, Lino Kleingarn and Alexander Riedm眉ller, as members of the Viennese theatre collective 鈥瀉rtig鈥�, and their guest musician David F眉llekruss will show you what spontaneity really means! More information: and  

GAITKRASH

Furthermore Cork-based theatre company GAITKRASH, in association with Drama & Theatre Studies, UCC invites conference delegates to a work-in-progress sharing of a stage adaptation of Marlen Haushofer's Killing Stella (Wir t枚ten Stella, 1958).

Killing Stella is the latest collaborative piece from GAITKRASH theatre company, known for their experimental performance work at the intersection between sound, image and text. Anna, who perceives herself to be trapped in an oppressive, patriarchal and hierarchical world, confesses to her role in colluding in the abuse of Stella, a young woman she takes into her home. The story is told through a tapestry of choreography, musical composition and text. A stage adaptation of Marlen Haushofer鈥檚 novella Wir t枚ten Stella (Austria, 1958), the piece makes a bold statement about the dangers of collusion in domestic settings and exposes the superficiality of idealized versions of home and family.

The performance will be followed by a 30-minute Q and A with the team and the audience.

Collaborative Team:

Bernadette Cronin: performance/translation/adaptation (GAITKRASH/UCC)

Eimear Reidy: cello/musical composition/adaptation (freelance artist)

Marie Kelly: dramaturgy (UCC/freelance theatre practitioner and casting director)

Regina Crowley: artistic direction (GAITKRASH/CIT)

Mick O鈥橲hea: design consultancy (GAITKRASH/Domestic Godless/The Quiet Club)

Inma Pavon: photography/choreography

Patricia Klich: videography (freelance artist)

A Brief History of Metaphysics - Solo Performance by John Crutchfield

This is an original, movement-based solo performance which premiered as part of the 2012 Asheville Fringe Arts Festival (in Asheville, North Carolina, USA), but which has not yet had a European premiere. Working in the physical comedy tradition of Bustor Keaton and other performing artists of the vaudeville and silent film era, the piece uses the motif of a student sitting at an institutional 鈥渄esk-chair鈥� to explore the contentious relationship between body, mind, language and materiality. The performance lasts approximately fifteen minutes. Although the piece makes no propositional claims about the themes it raises, it could serve as an entertaining catalyst for the discussion of those themes in relation to performative foreign language teaching and learning.

Spurensuche

At the beginning of the school year 2015/2016, 35 students from the Ernst-Mach Grammar School and Haar Comprehensive School near Munich, went back in time on a trip into the dark days of National Socialism in their hometown. The goal of the journey was to investigate the atrocities committed at that time, whilst also considering their own behavior from a contemporary perspective and was encapsulated in the question:

What sort of person do you want to be?

On the basis of on-location enquiries, appraisal of official historical documents, conversations with survivors and, as a result of discussions within the students鈥� own familial discourse, a documentary performance emerged. This consisted of almost exclusively of original quotations from that time.

In the chronology of the historical documentation of the Nazi period, the events that took place in Haar include details of the fate of various victims of euthanasia. An important feature of the performance is due to its close regional association with the Healing- and Care-Center Eglfing-Haar, where many of the crimes were committed.

This play looks, in different contexts, at the question of who and what was worthy of continuing to live and the audience is confronted in an active way with these issues. The members of the public, in the framework of very special staging, are continually confronted with new situations, which demand thought, consideration and conclusion.

SPURENSUCHE represents a theatrical commemoration of the victims of the Nazi euthanasia crimes, and has been awarded a prize for original on-stage tribute.  

On the 25th of January 2017, at the invitation of the Government Secretary for the Disabled in Germany, the play was performed in the Kleisthaus in Berlin, the headquarters of that institution, this day being the National Remembrance Day for all victims of Nazi crimes.

Direction: Thomas Ritter and Farina Simbeck

Actors: 35 from the Ernst-Mach Grammar and Haar Comprehensive School

Lighting, Staging and all other technical aspects: 10 students from Ernst-Mach Grammar School

Sponsorship: B脺RGERSTIFTUNG HAAR

Performative Spaces in Language, Literature and Culture Education

2nd International SCENARIO Forum Conference marking

10 Years SCENARIO 鈥� Journal for Performative Teaching, Learning, Research

深夜亚洲福利久久 College Cork, Ireland 鈥� May 25-28, 2017

The 2017 SCENARIO Forum conference responds to increasing signs of a performative shift in education and explores potential PERFORMATIVE SPACES in language, literature and culture-related pedagogical contexts. We invite contributions with a focus on (but not limited to) the following topics:

• Embodied spaces. How can the role of the body be accentuated more as an integral part of the learning process? What effects does embodiment have on learning outcomes?
• Physical spaces. What are the challenges and possibilities of existing physical spaces (classrooms/seminar rooms/lecture halls etc.) and how can performative teaching approaches impact and possibly transform those spaces?
• Mental spaces. What new spaces in the mind emerge from working performatively in education? How can those spaces be perceived, described, and reflected upon?
• Empty spaces. Which specific areas in education could particularly benefit from performative approaches to teaching and learning? If 鈥渆mpty space鈥� is 鈥渁ny space in which theatre takes place鈥� (Peter Brook), how can empty spaces become rooms for artistic/aesthetic experiences in language, literature, and culture education?
• Intercultural spaces. How can different cultures, languages and language learning backgrounds be productively integrated into performative teaching and learning? To what extent do performative approaches go beyond existing practice in the area of intercultural education?
• Curricular spaces. In what way have performative teaching and learning cultures already shaped existent curricula? What are the desiderata?
• Research spaces. What gaps exist between theoretical considerations and practical applications of performative teaching and learning, and how can these gaps become viable spaces for performative research? In what ways has research into performative teaching and learning already made an impact on research methodologies? How can performative teaching and learning be observed, codified, and/or assessed?
• Definitional spaces: What terminological challenges and transcultural considerations need to be focused on in the development of an international glossary of terms?
• Visionary spaces. After 10 years of SCENARIO: To what extent has the way towards a performative teaching and learning culture been paved? What has been achieved in particular cultural contexts? What developments are desirable/expected over the next ten years?

We welcome contributions from teachers, scholars, as well as artists and practitioners in related arts-based disciplines and professional fields of practice, including Education, Drama and Theatre, Film/ New Media, Music, Dance, Visual Art. The organisers are open to a variety of presentational forms, including 25-minute papers, 90-minute workshops, short films, and performance pieces.

Please send your proposal (max. 300 words in English or German) together with a short bio (max. 50 words) by January 31, 2017 to scenario@ucc.ie 鈥� to register for the conference click .

Prospective contributors will be informed as soon as possible, by February 15, 2017 at the latest. Regularly updated information, including conference registration, can be accessed at . 

Selected papers will be published in SCENARIO Journal () and/or the SCENARIO Book Series (/).

The conference is organised by the Department of German, 深夜亚洲福利久久 College Cork, in close collaboration with the CASiLaC research cluster Culture as Performance 鈥� Performance as Culture in UCC鈥檚 School of Languages, Literatures and Cultures and the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Performance Practices.
